Shaquille Leonard waived by Indianapolis Colts

The Indianapolis Colts are waiving 28-year-old LB Shaquille Leonard as they prepare for their Week 12 matchup.

Fantasy Impact: Leonard had seen his playing time decrease throughout the year as he played under a new coaching staff in 2023. He began his career with four-straight All-Pro team appearances after snagging 11 interceptions, getting 30 passes defended, and forcing 17 fumbles in four years, including leading the NFL in tackles as a rookie. Leonard wasn’t an every-down LB this year, but since he will be subjected to waivers, he can be claimed by a team who will play him more. He’s under contract through 2026 and has an injury history, so he may pass waivers and sign as a free agent instead.
