Hooker had one tackle and played eight snaps in Thursday's preseason loss at Buffalo.

EDGE Analysis

Hooker's stats are meaningless but his return to the field isn't since he injured his foot during the opening round of the playoffs and wasn't able to suit up when the Colts were eliminated by Kansas City the next week. It looks like he's back to full speed ahead of the regular season.

Hooker (foot) has been a full participant in the offseason program, Andrew Walker of Colts.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hooker injured his foot during the opening round of the playoffs and wasn't able to suit up when the Colts were eliminated by Kansas City the next week. The 2017 first-round pick is locked in as a starter, sitting on 65 tackles (45 solo), eight passes defensed and five interceptions in 21 career games. His role as a traditional free safety isn't conductive to steady IDP production, but Hooker's strong work in deep coverage makes him quite valuable to the Colts.

Hooker (foot) won't require surgery, Kevin Bowen of 1070 The Fan reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hooker tried to play through the injury during the Colts' wild-card game against the Texans, but he was ultimately shut down for last weekend's divisional-round game against the Chiefs. The fact he won't need surgery suggests he isn't dealing with anything severe, and Hooker isn't expected to require an extensive rehab process this offseason.

Hooker (foot) has been ruled inactive for Saturday's AFC divisional-round contest versus the Colts.

EDGE Analysis

Hooker was given a questionable designation after being unable to practice throughout the week, rendering this decision not all that surprising. George Odum will presumably replace him at free safety for Saturday's game.

Hooker (foot) is officially listed as questionable for Saturday's divisional-round playoff game against the Chiefs.

EDGE Analysis

Hooker did not practice in any capacity this week, but appears to have a shot of suiting up in Kansas City. If the 22-year-old is able to take the field, he'll play a key role in attempting to limit quarterback Patrick Mahomes' big-play ability. George Odum is listed as Hooker's backup on Indianapolis' official depth chart.

Hooker (foot) was a non-participant at Tuesday's walkthrough.

EDGE Analysis

Hooker suffered the injury in last Saturday's win over the Texans but was able to return and play the remainder of the contest. According to Zak Keefer of The Indianapolis Star, the 22-year-old was sporting a protective walking boot in the locker room, though the team indicated it was simply a precautionary measure.

Hooker (hip) will play in Saturday's Wild Card tilt against the Texans.

EDGE Analysis

Hooker was slowed up a bit by a hip injury during the final few weeks of the season, but it does not look like the issue is serious enough to keep him sidelined. Look for him to take on his usual responsibilities as the starting strong safety assuming he avoids any setbacks.

Hooker notched six tackles and one interception during Sunday's victory over the Giants.

EDGE Analysis

The Colts secondary struggled most of the day despite an inviting matchup with aging quarterback Eli Manning. However, Hooker ultimately had the last laugh in the fourth quarter when Manning lobbed a ball down the middle of the field and into the safety's waiting hands for the game-clinching interception. Averaging just 3.2 tackles per game with only one game with over six tackles in 2018, Hooker will remain a low-floor fantasy option in the regular-season finale against Tennessee.

Hooker (hip) will play in Sunday's game against the Dolphins.

EDGE Analysis

Hooker was unable to suit up in Week 11 due to the hip injury, but will make his return to the field Sunday. Though the second-year safety's role for Sunday's game is unknown, Hooker could assume his regular role at safety taking most of the snaps.

Hooker (hip) will participate in practice Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Hooker skipped Week 11 against the Titans due to the hip issue, but his presence at practice Wednesday is a good sign in regards to his status for the team's matchup with the Dolphins. If he's able to get in a full practice session or two this week, there's a good chance the second-year safety will return to the lineup Sunday.
