Indianapolis Colts defensive end Samson Ebukam said Wednesday he expects to be cleared for training camp after missing the entire 2024 season with a torn Achilles.
Ebukam, who turns 30 on Friday, sustained the injury during a training camp practice last July.
He started all 17 games and led the Colts with a career-high 9.5 sacks in 2023. He also set career highs with 57 tackles (10 for loss) and 17 quarterback hits for Indianapolis in 2023.
Ebukam was entering his eighth NFL season and second with Indianapolis when he got hurt, having previously played with the Los Angeles Rams (2017-20) and San Francisco 49ers (2021-22).
Selected in the fourth round by Los Angeles in 2017, Ebukam has tallied 281 tackles, 33 sacks and 69 quarterback hits over 113 games (78 starts).
Ebukam also has 11 forced fumbles and five career fumble recoveries, including one for a touchdown. He returned his lone career interception 25 yards for a touchdown in 2018.
