Colts Le’Raven Clark Done For Year

Colts offensive lineman Le’Raven Clark is believed to have suffered a torn Achilles, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL.com (on Twitter). Once confirmed via MRI, Clark will be placed on injured reserve and ruled out for the remainder of the year.

Clark was serving as the Colts’ starting left tackle in place of Anthony Castonzo. Now, they’re on to Plan C, likely third-string left tackle Chaz Green, who filled in after Clark was carted off. With all due respect to Clark, the Colts were already looking at a drop-off in talent when they lost Castonzo, who is making $17MM this year compared to his backup’s $910K salary.

The good news is that Green was neck-and-neck with Clark for the No. 2 LT job, though Clark edged him for his experience on the left side. The Colts still managed to get by Houston on Sunday, advancing to 8-4. Next, they’ll take on the Raiders in Las Vegas.
