Colts CB Sauce Gardner Calls His Effort and Pursuit 'Embarrassing' and Wants to Leave It in London
Gardner said his effort and pursuit were not good enough after he gave up two big plays and drew a penalty, calling the tape embarrassing.
- On Wednesday, Indianapolis Colts cornerback Sauce Gardner described his performance during Sunday's London victory over the Washington Commanders as "embarrassing," citing a lack of effort and poor pursuit on multiple plays.
- Specific coverage lapses frustrated the cornerback, including one play where he realized 282-pound defensive tackle Adetomiwa Adebawore had out-hustled him down the field.

- While Indy's defense has struggled statistically, allowing 31st-ranked yardage, the unit has improved in the two weeks following their poor start, cutting allowed rushing yards to 131.0.
