Erupts in playoff-clinching win
Leonard had 10 tackles (eight solo), one sack, two defended passes and a forced fumble during Week 17's 28-14 win over the Jaguars.
Analysis: Leonard closed out the regular season with four straight performances of double-digit tackles. Despite having missed two games this season, he ranks eighth in the league in terms of total stops. Leonard's game-changing showcase against the Jaguars earned him AFC Defensive Player of the Week for the third time in his career.

Stacks up 10 stops
Leonard made 10 tackles (four solo) in Sunday's 28-24 loss to the Steelers.
Analysis: With a third straight double-digit tackling performance, Leonard now has produced at least 121 tackles in each of his first three seasons in the NFL. The South Carolina State product continues to be a top-tier IDP option, and he'll look to finish strong against the Jaguars in Week 17.

Full practice to start week
Leonard (back) was a full participant in practice Wednesday.
Analysis: Leonard left with a back injury late in last week's win over the Raiders, but coach Frank Reich said the injury was minor after the game, and the linebacker's full participation in practice to start the week confirms that notion. The engine of the Colts' defense should be good to go Sunday against the Texans.

Not dealing with serious injury
Coach Frank Reich said Monday that Leonard didn't suffer a serious back injury during Sunday's 44-27 win over the Raiders, Zak Keefer of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: It appears Leonard will be ready to go for the Week 15 matchup against Houston, although he'll be closely monitored during the practice week. If he suffers a setback and is sidelined, Matthew Adams is likely the next man up at weak-side linebacker.

Leaves with back injury
Leonard (back) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Raiders, Andrew Walker of the Colts' official site reports.
Analysis: Leonard exited Sunday's contest late in the fourth quarter with the Colts up 44-20, so it seems likely that he won't retake the field. He left with a team-high 11 tackles (eight solo).

Has 15 total tackles
Leonard had 15 total tackles and a tackle for a loss in Sunday's loss to Baltimore.
Analysis: Leonard has returned to piling up the tackles since missing two games with a groin injury. He has 24 tackles in his last two games.

Will play Sunday
Leonard (groin) will suit up against the Lions on Sunday, Zak Keefer of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Leonard resumed practicing in full Thursday, so official confirmation that he'll make his return against the Lions doesn't come as much of a surprise. The third-year pro hasn't played since Week 4 against the Bears. As long as he's on the field, Leonard is a must-start fantasy option in most IDP formats.

Back to practicing in full
Leonard (groin) was a full participant during the Colts' practice session Thursday.
Analysis: The one-time All-Pro has been unable to suit up since sustaining a groin injury during Indianapolis' Week 4 win over the Bears, but it appears he is on a trajectory to make his much-anticipated return against Detroit in Week 8. Leonard made his initial foray into resuming practice last Thursday, but this marks the 25-year-old's first full session since sustaining the injury. The Colts' defense is still tied for third in the NFL in DVOA, but the unit has surrendered 59 combined points the past…read more

Limited participant Wednesday
Leonard (groin) was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice.
Analysis: The 25-year-old missed the two games leading up to the Colts' bye in Week 7, but he's back on the field after some extra recovery time. Leonard may need to progress to full practice participation by the end of the week to avoid an injury designation, but he's trending in the right direction for Sunday's matchup with the Lions.

Won't play Week 6
Leonard (groin) is inactive Week 6 against Cincinnati.
Analysis: Leonard didn't see the practice field all week and was given a "doubtful" tag heading into the contest, so it's no surprise to see him miss his second consecutive game, especially with a bye week on tap in Week 7. In Leonard's absence last week against the Browns, Zaire Franklin saw more snaps, but it was Bobby Okereke who benefitted statistically, racking up a season-high 10 combined tackles.

Likely out again Week 6
Leonard (groin) is doubtful for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Kevin Bowen of 107.5 The Fan Indianapolis reports.
Analysis: The 25-year-old was unable to play last week against the Browns and is expected to miss his second straight game due to the groin injury. Zaire Franklin saw increased defensive snaps in his absence and figures to do so again Sunday with Leonard unlikely to play.

Misses another practice session
Leonard (groin) did not participate during Indianapolis' practice session Thursday, Zak Keefer of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Keefer expanded by stating that it's a "long shot" the star linebacker will be able to suit up during the Colts' Week 6 matchup against the Bengals. Leonard suffered the injury after playing just 28 defensive snaps during Indianapolis' Week 4 win against the Bears, but the Colts defense still held Chicago to a measly 28 rushing yards on 16 attempts. Week 5 was a different story, as the Browns racked up 124 team rushing yards with Leonard inactive.

Still not practicing
Leonard (groin) isn't practicing Wednesday, Kevin Bowen of 1070 The Fan reports.
Analysis: Leonard hurt his groin against the Bears in Week 4, and he's still not practicing after missing last week's loss to the Browns. The Colts will hope to have the star linebacker back for at least one of the next two practices ahead of Sunday's game against the Bengals, though the team could opt to play things safe with Leonard with a bye coming up in Week 7.

Not playing Week 5
Leonard (groin) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Browns, Andrew Walker of the Colts' official site reports.
Analysis: The 25-year-old sustained the groin injury during the Colts' Week 4 win over the Bears and will miss at least one game as a result. Leonard will represent a significant absence in the middle of the Indianapolis defense, especially since reserve linebackers Jordan Glasgow, Zaire Franklin and E.J. Speed have combined for only a handful of defensive snaps this season.

Groin still bothersome
Leonard (groin) didn't practice Wednesday.
Analysis: Leonard left in the second quarter of last week's game against the Bears, and the standout linebacker isn't feeling healthy enough to practice to start the week. He'll hope to raise his practice participation as the week goes on, but a potential Leonard absence Sunday would be a big blow to Indianapolis' defense against the run-heavy Browns attack.

Won't return Sunday
Leonard (groin) is ruled out to return to Sunday's game against the Bears, Andrew Walker of the Colts' official site reports.
Analysis: Leonard was initially listed as questionable after leaving Sunday's game in the first half but was ultimately ruled out midway through the third quarter. The Colts will hope for the star linebacker to be able to return Week 5 at Cleveland. He had a solo tackle before leaving the field.

Exits with groin injury
Leonard was forced out of Sunday's game versus the Bears with a groin injury, Andrew Walker of the Colts' official site reports.
Analysis: Leonard recorded a solo tackle before exiting in the second quarter. Zaire Franklin, Jordan Glasgow and E.J. Speed are all candidates to take over at weak-side linebacker for the time being.

Dominant in pass coverage
Leonard had six total tackles, a tackle for a loss and a pass defensed in Sunday's win over the Vikings.
Analysis: While Leonard got fewer tackles than he averaged per game last year (9.3 per game), he was outstanding in pass coverage while allowing just two of four targets against him to be completed for a total of nine yards.

Nine tackles in season opener
Leonard had nine total tackles and a QB hurry in Sunday's loss at Jacksonville.
Analysis: Leonard did give up five receptions on all five passes targeted at him for 52 yards, according to Pro Football Focus, but otherwise had a solid game. He picked up where he left off last season, when he averaged 9.3 tackles per game.

Picks off fifth pass of season
Leonard tallied six tackles (three solo) and an interception in Sunday's 38-20 loss to the Jaguars.
Analysis: Leonard's five interceptions this season leads all linebackers. He has shown a keen ability to find the ball so far in his career with 13 takeaways in his first two seasons. He also finishes the campaign with 121 total tackles, his second straight 120-plus tackle season to begin his pro career.

Practices in full
Leonard (back) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.
Analysis: Leonard was listed as a non-participant in Wednesday's estimated practice, and he's already resumed practicing in full. The second-year pro is on track to draw his usual start against Jacksonville on Sunday.

Estimated as DNP
Leonard (back) is listed as a DNP on Wednesday's estimated practice report.
Analysis: Leonard exited last weekend's contest against the Panthers to be evaluated for a concussion, but he was cleared in short order and ultimately finished the game with 11 tackles to his name. While it isn't clear where this back injury came from, Leonard's status for Sunday's season finale in Jacksonville won't be too much of a concern unless he also is unable to practice Thursday and Friday.

Compiles double-digit tackles

Analysis: Leonard has compiled 115 tackles (68 solo) across 12 contests, and he's logged seven games with double-digit stops. The second-year pro will look to finish strong during Week 17's season-finale in Jacksonville.

Racks up 12 tackles against Saints
Leonard tallied 12 tackles (six solo) in Monday's 34-7 loss to the Saints.
Analysis: Leonard's tackle count now sits at 104 for the season, placing him in the top-25 in that category. He also has four interceptions, making him and Joe Schobert the only linebackers with that many picks this year. Leonard will look to continue his production against the Panthers and first-time starting quarterback Will Grier in Week 16.

Scores first touchdown
Leonard had nine tackles (three solo), two interceptions and a touchdown during Sunday's 38-35 loss to the Buccaneers.
Analysis: Leonard's first pick came on the second play from scrimmage, and he grabbed another one and returned it 80 yards for a touchdown during the second quarter. The 2018 second-round pick hasn't been able to replicate the absurd tackle totals from his rookie campaign, but he's still been a quality IDP option with 92 tackles (57 solo), five sacks, four interceptions and two forced fumbles in 10 games.

Adds two sacks
Leonard had 11 tackles (five solo) and two sacks during Sunday's 31-17 loss to the Titans.
Analysis: The 24-year-old posted double-digit tackles for the fifth time this season and provided serious production Sunday despite the Colts' lackluster performance overall. Leonard is tied with Anthony Walker for the team lead in tackles (82) despite missing three games, and he also has five sacks, two interceptions and two forced fumbles.

Upgrades to full practice
Leonard (abdomen) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.
Analysis: Leonard kicked off the week as a limited participant in practice due to an abdomen issue, but he's already resumed operating without restrictions. Barring any setbacks, expect the star linebacker to draw his usual start during Sunday's tilt against the Jaguars.

Nursing abdomen injury
Leonard was limited in Wednesday's practice due to an abdomen injury.
Analysis: Leonard logged a dominant performance during Sunday's loss to the Dolphins, but he appears to have also picked up an abdomen injury during the contest. It's encouraging that the star linebacker wasn't held out of Wednesday's session entirely. He'll have two more opportunities to upgrade his level of practice ahead of Sunday's contest against Jacksonville.

Analysis: Leonard has notched 47 tackles through just five games, making him one of the most reliable (and valuable) linebackers in IDP formats. He's also recorded two sacks, two defended passes and an interception across that stretch. The second-year pro is primed for a favorable matchup against the Dolphins in Week 10.
