Indianapolis Colts safety Julian Blackmon suffered a shoulder injury against the Atlanta Falcons and is questionable to return to Sunday’s game.

After the Colts got a stop on third down during the second quarter, Blackmon was in clear pain after tackling Cordarrelle Patterson to force the punt. He went into the medical blue tent and then into the locker room before it was revealed that he was questionable.

Blackmon has been enjoying a strong season, including a team-high four interceptions. With Blackmon out, second-year safety Nick Cross will take his place next to Rodney Thomas II.
