Former Ohio State defensive end Tyquan Lewis has suffered a season-ending injury to his patellar tendon for the second year in a row.
After tearing his patellar tendon in his right knee during an interception return in 2021, Lewis suffered the same injury to his left knee in the Indianapolis Colts’ loss to the Washington Commanders on Sunday, Colts head coach Frank Reich announced Monday.
Colts injury news: DL Tyquan Lewis is done for the year with a ruptured patella tendon. Same injury as last year, but the other leg.

Just brutal. Lewis had been playing terrific.
Prior to the injury, Lewis had recorded 14 total tackles with one sack, one forced fumble, four quarterback hits and two pass breakups for the Colts this season. Unfortunately for Lewis, who is slated to be a free agent again next offseason after signing a one-year, $2.545 million contract to remain with the Colts this year, he will be sidelined for the second half of the NFL season for the second year in a row.
