Indianapolis Colts cornerback Sauce Gardner has been ranked No. 10 in the NFL by FOX Sports as the 2026 season approaches. This ranking follows a challenging previous season where injuries limited his performance. Initially recognized for his standout play in his first two years, Gardner earned first-team All-Pro honors twice. However, injuries and diminished impact have affected his standing. A successful 2026 season could help justify the Colts' considerable trade for him last November, which included two first-round picks and wide receiver Adonai Mitchell.
