Colts' DeForest Buckner absent from PUP list as training camp begins

The Indianapolis Colts have placed Alec Pierce and CJ Allen on the physically unable to perform list before the start of training camp. Defensive tackle DeForest Buckner was not included on the list, allowing him to practice ahead of the camp's opening. Buckner missed significant time last season due to a neck injury, which required surgery. His absence from the PUP list comes as a positive development for the Colts, although it remains to be seen if he will have any practice restrictions. Buckner's performance metrics indicate he continued to play effectively despite last season's challenges.
