Almost everything went right for the Indianapolis Colts during their Week 15 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers.
An area that certainly hurt the Colts in Week 15 and could also hurt them in Week 16 would be losing star WR Michael Pittman Jr. to a concussion.
As he took an ugly shot from Steelers safety, Damontae Kazee is suspended for the rest of the 2023 season.
And the NFL has now taken action against Kazee and the hit.
Kazee was thrown out of the Colts and Steelers Week 15 matchup immediately following his hit on Pittman Jr. The hit was seen as so egregious that little to no review was needed for the officiating crew to announce his ejection.
The NFL has taken action and suspended Kazee for the remainder of the 2023 season. The hit itself, as well as his long list of violations this season, played a factor in this decision. Before this incident, Kazee had been fined five times for unnecessary roughness violations.
On the Colts end, they will have to wait and see how Pittman Jr. progresses through the NFL's concussion protocol this week. He seemed in good spirits post-game, as he took to X (Twitter) to let fans know he would be okay.
Colts could get an early Christmas present just in time for Week 16
