The Colts honored veteran linebacker Shaquille Leonard during Week 12’s game against the Buccaneers, only five days after the franchise released him.
Leonard, who played six seasons with the Colts, was sitting in a suite at Lucas Oil Stadium when the franchise honored the three-time Pro Bowler with a video tribute thanking him for his contributions to the franchise. The 28-year-old was all smiles while watching the tribute alongside his wife, Kayla, and their two daughters inside the stadium.
During his Colts tenure, Leonard won the 2018 AP Defensive Rookie of the Year after leading the NFL with 163 tackles. He also earned three Pro Bowl nods as well as multiple All-Pro honors in his first four seasons, during which he generated more than 500 tackles.
