The Indianapolis Colts selected Laiatu Latu as the 15th overall pick in the recent draft, aiming to bolster their pass rush. Six games into the season, Latu has recorded only one sack, raising questions about his performance compared to expectations.
Despite limited splash plays, advanced metrics show he ranks 15th in pass rush win rate among edge rushers. Latu's role has expanded due to injuries to veteran players, which has impacted his production. As the season progresses and teammates return from injury, Latu's performance may improve.
