During Sunday’s win over the Chicago Bears, Indianapolis Colts cornerback Kenny Moore, and defensive end Kwity Paye each exited the game late in the fourth quarter.
On Monday, head coach Shane Steichen met with reporters but did not have any updates on either player at that time.
Paye suffered a quad injury that required him getting helped off the field. After the game, Paye said that he would get scans on the injury, but according to Joel Erickson of the Indy Star, Paye sounded “somewhat optimistic.”
Moore would leave Sunday’s game with a hip injury that he sustained while trying to breakup a pass late. As of now, we do not have any other information.
Both Paye and Moore played key roles in the Colts’ defensive showing against the Bears. Paye helped set a strong edge against the run that helped limit the Chicago run game and also totaled five pressures, which were tied with Laiatu Latu for the most on the team.
Moore, meanwhile, was one of the Colts’ highest-graded defenders in this game by PFF’s metrics. He would make seven tackles and record a sack. In coverage, Moore allowed only five completions on 10 targets for 19 yards with one pass breakup.
Wednesday the Colts will be back on the field as they prepare to take on the Pittsburgh Steelers. At that time we will gain additional clarity around the injuries for both players.
