Newly acquired star cornerback Sauce Gardner is still finding his role in this defense under Indianapolis Colts defensive coordinator Lou Anarumo. Switching teams mid-season is always hard for any player, but switching teams and playing in a foreign country is even harder.
Although the Colts have had success this season, the bye week couldn't have come at a better time for an ailing defense and a new player finding his legs. Gardner played well in his first tilt as a Colt. In Week 12 against the Kansas City Chiefs, Gardner was a positive presence even in the brutal loss.
