Colts' Titus Leo: Goes to Indy in Round 6
Rotowire
The Colts selected Leo in the sixth round of the 2023 NFL Draft, 211th overall.
Leo (6-foot-3, 245 pounds) was a menacing edge defender at Wagner, a low level of competition, but the Colts take him here to see if his game can make the jump to the NFL level.
