WESTFIELD, Ind. -- Indianapolis Colts backup running back Salvon Ahmed was carted off the field near the end of Sunday's practice with a severe injury to his right leg.
Coach Shane Steichen said his thoughts and prayers were with Ahmed.
Ahmed, a five-year veteran who spent last season on Indy's practice squad, was injured on a tackle by Trey Washington in the end zone. Ahmed screamed as each Colts player took a knee. They later gathered around Ahmed as he was being placed on a stretcher.
The Colts briefly stopped practice to huddle before finishing their final practice period of the day.
