What happened: Sources expect Key to miss about 3-4 weeks with the hamstring injury. Shane Steichen said Monday the starting pass rusher would miss some time.

Why it matters: Losing a starter tests edge depth during the 2026 regular season. Indianapolis must reshuffle pass-rush snaps over the next month.

What to watch: Watch for updated practice designations and who takes first-team edge reps. A return timeline will clarify near the end of October.
