Colts head coach Frank Reich said last week that defensive tackle Tyquan Lewis would miss significant time with a toe injury and it will be at least eight weeks before the second-round pick returns to the lineup.
Colts General Manager Chris Ballard said on Sunday that the team will place Lewis on injured reserve. Because he made the initial 53-man roster Kendall Wright Jersey , Lewis is eligible to be designated for return and Ballard said the team will “see how that progresses as we go along.”
鈥淚t stinks, man, because the kid鈥檚 really talented Kyle Murphy Jersey ,鈥?Ballard said. 鈥淎nd we were excited, especially early in camp, about what he was doing at the three [technique] Josh Jones Jersey , and really thought on rush downs he was going to be one of our what our defensive coaches call our green package, where we鈥檙e going to try to get our four best rushers on the field.鈥?/p>
Al Woods, Denico Autry Vincent Valentine Jersey , Grover Stewart and Hassan Ridgeway are the other defensive tackles in Indy.
Dallas running back Ezekiel Elliott and Kansas City rookie standout Kareem Hunt are scheduled to be among the headliners for a fantasy football convention that expects to draw more than 200 NFL players this summer.
The event will be held in Dallas again after making its debut in 2017 following two straight years of cancellations over claims of interference from the NFL. Former Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo was among the original investors in the company running the event.
The first event had about 50 players, including Elliott. This year’s convention is set for July 13-15 at Fair Park near downtown Dallas. Fans will have a chance to interact with players, and there will be mock fantasy drafts along with panels led by fantasy football experts.
National Fantasy Football Convention CEO Andy Alberth says he is trying to build a ”Disneyland for football fans of all ages.” Other expected attendees include running backs LeSean McCoy of Buffalo and Melvin Gordon of the Los Angeles Chargers.
