Signed a four-year, $17.03 million contract with the Colts in May of 2024.
Past shoulder issue
Latu (shoulder) has been a regular participant in Colts' training camp practices, Amanda Foster of the team's official site reports.
ANALYSIS
The 2024 first-rounder injured his shoulder during the Colts' 2024 regular-season finale against the Jaguars in early January, but he was able to train during the offseason and has been a full participant in the early portions of training camp. Latu played in all 17 regular-season games during his rookie campaign (including one start) and logged 32 tackles (16 solo), including 4.0 sacks, one pass defense, three forced fumbles and one fumble recovery. Latu is projected to have a much bigger role on the Colts' defensive front in 2025 and will likely be a regular starter at defensive end opposite Kwity Paye.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Dominating in training camp
Stephen Holder of ESPN.com relays that Latu's performance in training camp has the rookie first-round pick making a case for himself to start on the Colts' defensive line.
ANALYSIS
Latu has made his presence felt during team drills, often blowing by offensive linemen and ending plays before they can even begin. He has made life particularly difficult for second-year quarterback Anthony Richardson, who noted after Friday's practice that Latu is a "great young player and he keeps me honest." Latu is currently listed as the backup defensive end behind Kwity Paye and Dayo Odeyingbo. However, Odeyingbo has been out with a calf injury since Tuesday, which opens the door for Latu to get more reps with the first-team defense during practice sessions and potentially preseason games.
