Sauce Gardner injury update: Colts CB helped off the field

Two plays into the Indianapolis Colts' first defensive drive against the Houston Texans, the AFC South leaders may have lost one of their newest defensive stars.

The Colts have ruled cornerback Sauce Gardner questionable to return with a calf injury in their Week 13 divisional game. Gardner appeared to get hurt while taking on a block from Texans tight end Cade Stover.

CBS cameras caught Gardner heading back to the Colts' locker room with team trainers. He appeared almost completely unable to put weight on his left foot.

Indianapolis acquired the two-time All-Pro in a trade with the New York Jets ahead of the trade deadline, sending two first-round picks and receiver Adonai Mitchell to New York as part of the deal.

This story will be updated.
