2024 Fantasy Outlook
Speed took over as the Colts' starting weakside linebacker after the team waived Shaquille Leonard in midseason and the former backup established himself as a starter heading into 2024. Speed recorded 102 tackles (78 solo) including a sack and three forced fumbles. It was a career-best year for him in essentially every category. He'll return as the starting weak-side linebacker.

First career pick
Speed recorded six tackles (four solo) and an interception in Sunday's 30-20 loss to the Bills.
ANALYSIS
Speed recorded fewer than 10 tackles for just the third time this season, but he managed to record his first career interception in the second quarter. The 2019 fifth-round pick is on the final year of his second NFL contract, and he ranks second in the league with 62 solo tackles through nine games, just two shy of Budda Baker, who has played 10 games.
