Colts' Cameron McGrone: Reserve role in season opener
Rotowire
McGrone had one total tackle in Sunday's win over Miami.
McGrone played on 21 of the defense's 47 snaps. Despite being listed as the starter at weak-side linebacker on the preseason unofficial depth chart, he doesn't have a starting role on defense. The Colts start just two linebackers on defense in their base formation, leaving McGrone on the sidelines in most packages. However, he played one less snap than Joe Bachie, who started opposite Zaire Franklin (38 snaps).

McGrone (knee) was designated to return from the non-football injury list Tuesday, Jim McBride of The Boston Globe reports.
McGrone was selected in the fifth-round of the 2021 Draft and had tore his ACL while at Michigan in November of 2020. At the time it was thought he might miss the entire 2021 campaign, so any return this season would be seen as significant progress. Although his designation to return does not guarantee he plays this season, it has opened a 21-day window for him to practice with the team and try to get activated.
