Indianapolis Colts ' second-year cornerback Justin Walley was one of the standout performers in the team's training camp practice on Saturday.
This was a shorter practice, only about an hour long, and the focus was on the red zone. There, Walley forced two pass breakups, according to the Indy Star's Joel Erickson.
On one play, Walley "went up high," Erickson wrote, while covering Laquon Treadwell. On the other pass breakup, which also came when defending Treadwell, Walley blanketed the initial route before he "cut off" Treadwell as he altered his route.

— Indianapolis Colts (@Colts) August 15, 2026 Walley will be the Colts' starting nickel cornerback, with Sauce Gardner and Charvarius Ward outside. However, Walley has taken some outside snaps as well during training camp, giving the Colts another option at that position if an injury occurs.
Walley impressed early on last summer, but unfortunately, he suffered a season-ending ACL injury. Since returning to the practice field in the spring, however, he has hit the ground running, seemingly picking up where he left off.
The Colts appreciate the competitive juice Walley brings to the defense and his instincts, which led to strong ball production in college.
