Ruled out Week 7 Ebukam has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Chargers due to a knee injury.

With Ebukam and Tyquan Lewis (groin) both done for the day, the Colts will turn to JT Tuimoloau, Adetomiwa Adebawore and Neville Gallimore to pick up more rotational snaps on the defensive line.
