Rock Ya-Sin Injury News & Updates
Keep up with the latest injuries from the Cowboys vs Lions game on Thursday with our National Football League injury report.Oct 29, 2025
Cleared of injury for Week 9
Ya-Sin (lower body) was not listed on Wednesday's estimated practice report.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin was forced to leave the Lions' Week 7 contest against the Buccaneerrs due to cramps, but the 2019 second-rounder has had extra time to recover thanks to the Week 8 bye. He started in the Lions' two games prior to the bye, though his playing time on defense will likely decrease as Terrion Arnold (shoulder) appears to be on track to play against the Vikings on Sunday.
Oct 20, 2025
Dealing with cramps
Ya-Sin is questionable to return to Monday's game against Tampa Bay due to cramps, Justin Rogers of DetroitFootball.net reports.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin has come in and out of the game for much of the second half. He's made several postiive plays in coverage filling in for a beat-up Detroit secondary, but his night may be done early.
Mar 20, 2025
Heads to Detroit
Ya-Sin signed with the Lions on Thursday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
The depth corner played in 13 games and on 54 defensive snaps for the 49ers last year, though he also saw action on 107 special-teams snaps, making three solo tackles in total. Ya-Sin has started one game over the past two seasons with the Ravens and 49ers. The 2019 second-round pick of the Colts started 38 across his first four seasons in the NFL, three with Indianapolis and one with Las Vegas.
Aug 29, 2024
Makes 53-man roster
Ya-Sin made the 49ers' 53-man roster Wednesday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin signed with the 49ers in April after playing in 14 regular-season games for the Ravens. Ya-Sin will provide valuable depth at corner behind starters Charvarius Ward and Deommodore Lenoir.
Apr 11, 2024
Headed to San Francisco
The 49ers signed Ya-Sin (knee) to a one-year deal Thursday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
The 2019 second-round pick is expected to suit up for his fourth team in just as many years after agreeing to terms with the 49ers on Thursday. Ya-Sin missed the final game of Baltimore's 2023 campaign due to a knee injury, but it now seems as if he's moved past the issue. The 27-year-old cornerback appeared in 14 games for the Ravens last season, recording 13 tackles and defending two passes. He's expected to compete for a depth role in San Francisco's secondary as the offseason progresses.
Jan 28, 2024
Won't go Sunday
Ya-Sin (knee) will be inactive for Sunday's AFC Champhionship Game versus Kansas City.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin is dealing with a knee issue that left him sidelined during practice Thursday. While he logged a full session Friday, the 27-year-old will ultimately be sidelined for Sunday's playoff game. Ya-Sin has been a consistent contributor as a reserve cornerback this season while also seeing significant playing time on special teams, tallying 13 tackles over 14 appearances. However, his absence shouldn't prove overly significant for Baltimore's defense, as starting cornerback Marlon Humphrey (calf) is available to play Sunday after he back-to-back games.
Jan 28, 2024
On track for Sunday
Ya-Sin (knee) is expected to play in Sunday's game versus the Chiefs, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin logged a full practice session Friday after sitting out Thursday, so he was seemingly trending in the right direction. Still, final confirmation on his status is unlikely to come until the Ravens release their inactive list prior to game time.
Jan 26, 2024
Questionable for Sunday
Ya-Sin (knee) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Chiefs.
ANALYSIS
The veteran cornerback could be trending towards playing in Sunday's AFC Championship Game, as he's gone from logging a DNP on Thursday to a full workload Friday. If Ya-Sin is unable to suit up this weekend, Arthur Maulet and Ronald Darby could see even more work than usual in the Ravens' secondary.
Nov 8, 2023
Back to full health
Ya-Sin (illness) was not listed on Baltimore's injury report Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin sat out of the Ravens' win versus Seattle on Sunday due to an illness, but he now appears to be back to 100 percent ahead of Week 10. He projects to resume a depth role in Baltimore's defensive backfield when it hosts the Browns on Sunday.
Nov 5, 2023
Inactive for Week 9
Ya-Sin (illness) is inactive ahead of Sunday's game against the Seahawks.
ANALYSIS
The 27-year-old cornerback was a full participant in Friday's practice after recording DNPs on Wednesday and Thursday, but he won't be able to play through his illness this Sunday. Kevon Seymour and Arthur Maulet are expected to see an uptick in work in the Ravens' secondary with Ya-Sin missing time.
Aug 23, 2023
Returns to field
Ya-Sin (knee) returned to practice Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin injured his knee in the beginning of August during practice, and the expectation was that he wouldn't miss much time after an MRI revealed no serious damage. Although he ultimately missed three weeks, his return to the field just over two weeks away from the team's Week 1 contest against the Texans, is certainly good news for the Ravens secondary.
Aug 4, 2023
Absence expected to be short
Ya-Sin (knee) is expected back "very soon," per coach John Harbaugh, Brian Wacker of the Baltimore Sun reports.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin injured his knee Wednesday, but an MRI showed he avoided serious damage, and Harbaugh described the cornerback's injury as short term. Since Ya-Sin's expected to be a starter in 2023, he may well sit out Baltimore's preseason opener Aug. 12 against the Eagles, even if he's healthy enough to play by then.
Aug 3, 2023
Avoids serious injury
Ya-Sin didn't tear anything in his knee following his MRI Thursday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin had to leave Ravens camp after suffering a knee injury during 1-on-1 drills Wednesday. There is no structural damage to his knee according to the MRI results, however, the fifth-year cornerback is still dealing with pain and will miss some time. The timetable for the 27-year-old's injury remains unknown, but expect him to slide back into a starting role once he's returned to full health.
Aug 2, 2023
Dealing with injury
Ya-Sin (undisclosed) left camp Wednesday with an apparent injury, Morgan Adsit of Fox Baltimore reports.
ANALYSIS
Head coach John Harbaugh told reporters after practice that Ya-Sin's injury is not believed to be serious, but also didn't specify what the injury is. Baltimore will put the veteran corner through more testing this week, but it seems as if the injury won't hold him out for long. The 27-year-old signed a one-year deal worth up to $6 million with the Ravens this offseason, and once he's back to full health, expect him to start at corner ahead of the coming season.
May 3, 2023
Joining Baltimore as likely starter
Ya-Sin agreed to a one-year contract with the Ravens on Wednesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
A 2019 second-round pick, Ya-Sin started 29 of his 41 games in three seasons with the Colts before being dealt to the Raiders last offseason. He then started nine of his 11 appearances in Las Vegas, missing time in October and then December due to knee injuries. He should be healthy by now, and after inking a deal that's worth up to $6 million, Ya-Sin is the favorite to start across from Marlon Humphrey for a Ravens defense with poor depth at cornerback. The soon-to-be 27-year-old has only two career interceptions and hasn't topped 45 tackles since his rookie season, lingering well south of the fantasy radar in most IDP leagues.
May 3, 2023
Joining Ravens as likely starter
Ya-Sin is signing with Baltimore on a one-year contract for up to $6 million, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
A 2019 second-round pick, Ya-Sin started 29 of his 41 games in three seasons with the Colts before being dealt to the Raiders last offseason. He then started nine of his 11 appearances in Las Vegas, missing time in October and then December due to knee injuries. He should be healthy by now, and he's the favorite to start across from Marlon Humphrey for a Ravens defense with poor depth at cornerback. The soon-to-be 27-year-old has defended at least five passes each season as a pro, but he only has two career interceptions and hasn't topped 45 tackles since his rookie year, lingering well south of the fantasy radar in most IDP leagues.
Dec 29, 2022
Lands on injured reserve
The Raiders placed Ya-Sin (knee) on injured reserve Thursday.
ANALYSIS
Despite returning to practice as a limited participant Wednesday, Ya-Sin was surprisingly placed on injured reserve Thursday following his three-game absence streak due to a knee issue. He'll now miss the rest of the regular season, while Sam Webb, Nate Hobbs and Sidney Jones figure to serve as Las Vegas' top cornerbacks for the time being.
Dec 28, 2022
Returns to practice Wednesday
Ya-Sin (knee) was a limited participant in Las Vegas' practice session Wednesday, Anthony Galaviz of The Fresno Bee reports.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin hasn't been able to play since hurting his knee in the fourth quarter against the Chargers in Week 13. He didn't practice at all in Week 14 through 16, so his ability to log a limited session in Las Vegas' first practice of Week 17 is an encouraging sign ahead of Sunday's game against San Francisco. Still, Ya-Sin may need to progress to a full practice before the end of the week in order to take the field against the 49ers.
Dec 22, 2022
Will sit out again Week 16
Ya-Sin (knee) has been ruled out for Saturday's matchup in Pittsburgh, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin injured his knee against the Chargers in Week 13 and hasn't played since. Tyler Hall played 65 percent of the Raiders' defensive snaps against New England on Sunday and could be in line for an expanded workload again Week 16 versus the Steelers.
Dec 16, 2022
Ruled out
Ya-Sin (knee) will not play in Sunday's game against the Patriots, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
No surprise here, as Ya-Sin was a non-participant at practice all week. In his absence, Sam Webb is the likely candidate to start opposite Nate Hobbs at cornerback.
Dec 7, 2022
Won't suit up Thursday
Ya-Sin (knee) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Rams, Vincent Bonsignore of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin departed Sunday's contest versus the Chargers with an apparent knee injury, and was ultimately unable to practice in any capacity prior to Thursday's matchup against the Rams. While the 26-year-old is sidelined, Nate Hobbs, Sam Webb, Amik Robertson and Sidney Jones should hold down the fort at cornerback for Las Vegas in Week 14.
Dec 4, 2022
Sustains knee injury
Ya-Sin suffered a knee injury during Sunday's win over the Chargers.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin recorded two solo tackles and a pass defense to begin Sunday's game but suffered his knee injury in the fourth quarter and didn't return. It's not yet clear whether he'll be available Thursday against the Rams.
Oct 7, 2022
Puts in full session Friday
Ya-Sin (knee) practiced in full Friday.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin suffered a knee injury in Week 3 versus the Titans, and he ultimately missed Sunday's 32-23 win over the Broncos because of it. Although the 26-year-old was limited throughout Thursday's practice, his ability to return as a full participant in Friday's session suggests his knee issue is no longer a concern. Ya-Sin is in line to start at cornerback opposite of Nate Hobbs on Monday night against a dangerous Chiefs offense.
Oct 2, 2022
Out against Broncos
Ya-Sin (knee) is inactive Sunday against Denver.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin was injured in Week 3 against the Titans, but he was able to log limited practices all week. However, he's still not ready to play. Sam Webb will likely see extra opportunity in Ya-Sin's absence.
Sep 30, 2022
Officially questionable
Ya-Sin (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's matchup with the Broncos, Rachel Gossen of the Raiders' official website reports.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin was a limited participant at practice all week after injuring his knee in last week's loss to the Titans. He seems to be trending towards a true game-time decision, so expect an update on is status closer to kickoff.
Sep 28, 2022
Dealing with knee strain
Ya-Sin is reportedly dealing with a knee strain and his status for Week 4 is up in the air, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin suffered a knee injury during Sunday's loss to the Titans, but he appears to have avoided a significant injury. However, the Raiders may still be without one of their top defensive backs for Sunday's matchup against the Broncos. Fellow cornerback Nate Hobbs (concussion) may also be sidelined, so Amik Robertson and Sam Webb could be candidates for increased roles if Ya-Sin and/or Hobbs is ruled out.
Sep 25, 2022
Suffers knee injury
Ya-Sin suffered a knee injury in Sunday's 24-22 loss to the Titans.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin suffered the injury late in the game and tallied six tackles prior to his exit. It's unclear if he will be ready for the Raiders Week 4 matchup against the Broncos.
Jun 20, 2022
Looking to carve out role in LV
Ya-Sin (ankle/hip) has been participating in offseason work, Tashan Reed of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin suffered ankle and hip issues in the Colts' regular-season finale last year, but he appears to have moved past the injuries and is looking to carve out a role with his new squad. The 2019 second-round pick is projected to be one of the Raiders' top corners heading into the 2022 campaign after operating as a rotational piece in Indianapolis over the last two seasons.
Mar 16, 2022
Traded to Las Vegas
Ya-Sin (ankle/hip) was traded to the Raiders in exchange for Yannick Ngakoue on Wednesday, Joel A. Erickson of The Indianapolis Star reports.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin suffered ankle and hip injuries in Sunday's regular-season finale against the Jaguars that may require offseason surgery, but it doesn't appear like the potential minor procedure will have a major impact on his build up for 2022. The 2019 second-round pick appeared in 13 games for the Colts last season and totaled 31 tackles (27 solo), eight pass deflections, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery. He's heading into a contract year, so the defensive back should be plenty motivated to perform for his new squad.
Jan 13, 2022
Could require minor surgery
Ya-Sin (ankle/hip) could require a minor procedure during the offseason, Joel A. Erickson of The Indianapolis Star reports.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin suffered ankle and hip injuries in Sunday's regular-season finale against the Jaguars. General manager Chris Ballard didn't sound too concerned about the 25-year-old's potential procedure, so it's unlikely that his offseason progression will be significantly impacted.
Jan 9, 2022
Won't return
Ya-Sin (ankle/hip) will not return to Sunday's game against the Jaguars, Joel A. Erickson of The Indianapolis Star reports.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin suffered the pair of injuries on the Colts' first defensive possession. With Xavier Rhodes inactive (hamstring), the team will be without their top two corners for the rest of the game against Jacksonville.
Jan 9, 2022
Suffers ankle injury
Ya-Sin is questionable to return to Sunday's game against Jacksonville after suffering an ankle and hip injury, Mike Wells of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin suffered the injuries on the Colts' opening defensive possession. He limped off the field and has since entered the locker room, per Mike Chappell of Fox 59 News Indianapolis. With Xavier Rhodes inactive, the team may be dealing with a depleted secondary for the rest of a pivotal Week 18 matchup.
Dec 29, 2021
Activated off COVID-19 list
Ya-Sin was activated off the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin was one of five Colts' players that were removed from the league's health and safety protocols Wednesday. The 25-year-old cornerback is expected to reclaim his starting spot in Indianapolis' secondary against the Raiders in Week 17.
Dec 22, 2021
Placed on COVID-19 list
The Colts placed Ya-Sin (undisclosed) on the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
While it's not yet clear whether Ya-Sin has tested positive for the virus, he'll need to spend some time away from the team. If he's unavailable Saturday against the Cardinals, Kenny Moore and Isaiah Rodgers should see an uptick in playing time.
Oct 28, 2021
Full practice Thursday
Ya-Sin was able to return to full participation Thursday at the Colts' practice.
ANALYSIS
The cornerback was inactive last week when the team met the 49ers, dealing with an ankle injury. The 25-year-old should return Sunday to his spot as a top option in the Colts' secondary as they face the Titans. In four games this season, Ya-Sin has 13 tackles, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery.
Oct 22, 2021
Won't play in Week 7
Ya-Sin (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest against the 49ers, JJ Stankevitz of the Colts' official website reports.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin missed back-to-back games with an ankle injury, but he was able to return to action in Week 6. However, he suffered a setback and was removed from the contest. With Ya-Sin sidelined once again and Xavier Rhodes (ankle) questionable, Kenny Moore and Bopete Keyes are both in line for extended snaps in Week 7.
Oct 17, 2021
Not returning to game
Ya-Sin (ankle) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against Houston, Joel A. Erickson of The Indianapolis Star reports.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin picked up an ankle injury and now has been ruled out, so the severity of the ailment might be bigger than initially expected. With Ya-Sin sidelined, expect Kenny Moore or Bopete Keyes to take his place in the secondary.
Oct 15, 2021
Clears injury report Friday
Ya-Sin (ankle) was a full participant in Friday's practice and has been removed from the injury report ahead of Sunday's matchup with the Texans.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin didn't practice Wednesday, but he was able to make progress throughout the week and will be available for the Colts on Sunday. The 25-year-old will likely take back his starting role in the secondary after being absent for two games.
Oct 9, 2021
Still sidelined Monday
Ya-Sin (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Ravens, Stephen Holder of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin will be forced to miss a second straight contest as he continues to deal with an ankle injury. Isaiah Rodgers and Kenny Moore should see an increased snap count against Baltimore.
Oct 1, 2021
Will miss Week 4
Ya-Sin (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game at Miami.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin will miss his first game of the 2021 season with an ankle injury he suffered during Week 3's loss to the Titans. The cornerback's injury severity is uncertain at this point, but Kenny Moore and T.J. Carrie will likely see extended snaps Sunday with Ya-Sin ruled out.
Sep 26, 2021
Won't come back Sunday
Ya-Sin (ankle) has been ruled out of Sunday's game against the Titans.
ANALYSIS
There has been no word on the severity of the injury yet, and surely more tests are forthcoming. Kenny Moore and T.J. Carrie should see extra snaps as a result.
Sep 14, 2021
Four tackles Sunday
Ya-Sin started at left cornerback and had four total tackles in Sunday's loss to Seattle.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin gave up two receptions on three passes targeted at him for 26 yards, which is an encouraging sign given he struggled in pass coverage last season (he allowed a 105.5 passer rating against last season).
Sep 7, 2021
Listed as starter
Ya-Sin is listed as a starter at cornerback opposite Xavier Rhodes with Kenny Moore at nickelback on the Colts' unofficial depth chart for the season-opening matchup against Seattle.
ANALYSIS
The 2019 second-round draft pick has struggled in coverage as he allowed a 105.5 passer rating and two touchdowns last season, according to Pro Football Focus. He'll need to improve in pass coverage to maintain the starting role.
Apr 23, 2021
Training consistently
Ya-Sin hasn't missed a day of offseason training, Zak Keefer of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
After missing the final two contests of the 2020 season due to a concussion, Ya-Sin is back training with the team and preparing for an important 2021 campaign. The 24-year-old spent the past two seasons with the Colts, during which he's tallied 105 tackles, 12 pass breakups, two interceptions and one forced fumble through 28 games.
Jan 7, 2021
To miss wild-card round
Ya-Sin (concussion) has been ruled out for Saturday's wild-card matchup against the Bills, Mike Chappell of Fox 59 News Indianapolis reports.
ANALYSIS
The 24-year-old was unavailable Week 17 for a win over Jacksonville, and it's now confirmed he'll miss a second straight game to kick off January. It should come as no surprise that Ya-Sin will be unable to suit up for the wild-card round, having been unable to register even a limited practice session this week. Veteran cornerback TJ Carrie resultantly may have to be relied upon in a more integral defensive role against the Bills.
Jan 1, 2021
Out Week 17
Ya-Sin (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Jaguars, Mike Wells of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The 24-year-old apparently came out of last week's loss to the Steelers feeling fine, but coach Frank Reich said the cornerback developed concussion symptoms later in the week, per George Bremer of The Anderson Herald Bulletin. The Colts will need to advance to the playoffs for Ya-Sin to see the field again this season.
Nov 2, 2020
Clear of concussion
Ya-Sin cleared the concussion protocol Sunday, Kevin Bowen of 107.5 The Fan Indianapolis reports.
ANALYSIS
Coach Frank Reich said after Sunday's win over the Lions the 24-year-old was being evaluated for a concussion, but he was able to pass the concussion testing. Ya-Sin had two total tackles and played 77 percent of defensive snaps, and he should continue to work as the Colts' nickel corner.
Nov 1, 2020
Being checked for concussion
Coach Frank Reich said following Sunday's win over the Lions that Ya-Sin is being evaluated for a concussion, Joel A. Erickson of The Indianapolis Star reports.
ANALYSIS
There's no confirmation that Ya-Sin suffered a concussion, but that news should be available by the time practices restart Wednesday. If the second-year cornerback's forced to miss any time, TJ Carrie likely would see an expanded role behind starters Xavier Rhodes and Kenny Moore.
Oct 7, 2020
All clear Wednesday
Ya-Sin (undisclosed) was absent from the team's injury report Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin was forced out of Week 4's win over the Bears late in the fourth quarter and wasn't able to return. This news is a great sign that he'll be ready to return for Sunday's game, and the injury won't linger. Expect the Temple product to assume his normal starting role at cornerback.
Oct 4, 2020
Forced off field late
Ya-Sin was forced out of Sunday's 19-11 win over the Bears late in the fourth quarter, Joel A. Erickson of The Indianapolis Star reports.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin appeared to suffer a knee or leg injury after taking a hit, but he managed to limp off the field under his own power. The Colts will examine the extent of Ya-Sin's severity leading up to Week 5's contest in Cleveland.
Oct 2, 2020
Ready for Week 4
Ya-Sin (illness) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin has missed back-to-back games due to a stomach illness, but it now appears that he's ready for Sunday's match in Chicago. Barring any setbacks, he should handle his usual starting role at cornerback versus the Bears.
Sep 30, 2020
Still dealing with ailment
Ya-Sin (illness) was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin was forced to leave Sunday's contest against the Jets with the illness, however, the ailment is a non-COVID-19 related illness. Expect the situation to be touch-and-go depending on how the Temple product is feeling, but he still has a few practice days to get healthy. If he's unavailable for Week 4 against Chicago, TJ Carrie and Kenny Moore would be in line for an uptick in snaps.
Sep 25, 2020
Set to sit out Sunday
Ya-Sin (illness) has been ruled out for Sunday's game versus the Jets.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin hasn't been able to practice since being a last-minute scratch in Week 2, but he'll aim to get better before Week 4's matchup against the Bears. The Colts are already hurting in the secondary since Malik Hooker (torn Achilles) has been ruled out for the season, but the Jets group of pass-catchers is hampered as well. Expect TJ Carrie to see a bump in usage until Ya-Sin is able to return.
Sep 23, 2020
Can't practice Wednesday
Ya-Sin (illness) was a non-participant in Wednesday's practice.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin missed Sunday's win over the Vikings due to a non-COVID-19 related stomach illness, the severity of which required him to undergo evaluation at a local hospital. The second-year pro has since been released from the hospital, but a timetable for his return to practice remains undisclosed. If Ya-Sin can't gain clearance in time to face the Jets in Week 3, TJ Carrie stands to see a sharp uptick in snaps once more.
Sep 21, 2020
Week 3 availability unclear
Coach Frank Reich is unsure of Ya-Sin's (illness) availability heading into Week 3, George Bremer of The Anderson Herald Bulletin reports.
ANALYSIS
The 24-year-old was a late scratch for Sunday's win over the Vikings due to a non-COVID-19 related stomach illness, and he was being evaluated at a local hospital. According to Andrew Walker of the Colts' official site, Ya-Sin has since been released from the hospital, but that doesn't guarantee his availability at practice later in the week.
Sep 20, 2020
Dealing with stomach illness
Ya-Sin won't play in Sunday's game versus the Vikings due to a stomach illness, Phillip B. Wilson of AllColts.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin is "currently being evaluated at a local hospital", but he apparently doesn't have a fever and has tested negative for COVID-19. TJ Carrie is expected to handle an increased workload in Ya-Sin's stead.
Sep 20, 2020
Surprise scratch Sunday
Ya-Sin (illness) is inactive for Sunday's game versus the Vikings, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin wasn't listed on the injury report heading into Sunday, but he has come down with an illness and will sit out in Week 2. The Colts struggled to defend against Gardner Minshew in the season opener, and Kirk Cousins and the Vikings could spell trouble for the Colts without Ya-Sin. TJ Carrie figures to be the main beneficiary of Ya-Sin's absence.
Sep 14, 2020
Struggles in pass coverage
Ya-Sin started at left cornerback and had four total tackles in Sunday's loss at Jacksonville. He struggled in coverage as he gave up three receptions on three targets for an NFL QB rating against of 118.8, according to Pro Football Focus.
ANALYSIS
After allowing 9.7 yards per target and a 69.7 completion percentage against last year, the Colts will need him to make a big improvement with a larger role this season.
Jan 27, 2020
Makes 62 tackles in 2019
Ya-Sin posted 62 tackles, five pass breakups and an interception over 15 games in 2019.
ANALYSIS
The rookie second-round pick started 13 of the 15 games he played in. Ya-Sin had growing pains in pass coverage this year, as he allowed 9.7 yards per target and a 69.7 completion percentage. Pierre Desir and Kenny Moore (ankle) are both under contract in 2020, but Ya-Sin figures to continue as a starter next year barring free-agent or draft additions.
Dec 12, 2019
Sheds injury tag
Ya-Sin (shoulder) is not listed on Thursday's injury report.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin exited Sunday's loss to the Buccaneers due to a stinger, but he already appears fully recovered. With Kenny Moore (ankle) and Pierre Desir (groin) both nursing injuries, the rookie second-round pick could be in line for another key role in New Orleans on Monday.
Dec 8, 2019
Ready to roll
Ya-Sin (ankle) is officially active for Sunday's game against Tampa Bay.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin popped up on the injury report Thursday, and had came into the contest considered questionable. Now that the 2019 second-round pick is officially healthy, he'll look to get a bump in snaps with fellow corner Kenny Moore (ankle) inactive for Week 14.
Dec 6, 2019
Misses practice Friday
Ya-Sin (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Tampa Bay.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin popped onto the injury report again Thursday as he practiced on a limited basis, and he sat out Friday. Still, the 23-year-old was able to play 44 snaps in Week 13 and looks like he has a good chance to play Sunday.
Dec 1, 2019
Suiting up Sunday
Ya-Sin (ankle) is active for Sunday's game against the Titans.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin never appeared in legitimate danger of missing Sunday's tilt against the Titans. The rookie second-round pick stands to play his usual key role in Indianapolis' cornerback rotation.
Nov 29, 2019
Fully practices Friday
Ya-Sin (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Titans.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin sandwiched full practices Wednesday and Friday around a limited one Thursday and seems to be trending towards playing Week 13. The Colts would be without some of their depth at cornerback if the 23-year-old can't play.
Nov 28, 2019
Limited Thursday
Ya-Sin (ankle) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin practiced in full to start the week, but he hasn't yet shaken ankle injury that caused him to sit out Week 12. The rookie second-round pick still appears to have a good chance of suiting up to face the Titans on Sunday, but he'll likely need to test out his ankle during Friday's practice.
Nov 27, 2019
Practices at full speed
Ya-Sin (ankle) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.
ANALYSIS
After sitting out Week 12's loss to the Texans, Ya-Sin is expected to return to the lineup Sunday against the Titans. The rookie second-rounder should continue working in a starting role even though Pierre Desir has recovered from a hamstring issue. Ya-Sin has allowed 10.0 yards per target this year, and he's generated 41 tackles, three pass breakups and an interception.
Nov 21, 2019
Won't play Thursday
Ya-Sin (ankle) is inactive for Thursday night's game against the Texans.

Sports questionable tag
Ya-Sin (ankle) is considered questionable for Thursday's game against the Texans.
ANALYSIS
Ya-Sin was injured during this past Sunday's win over the Jaguars, and he was listed as a DNP over the first two days of practice. The rookie second-rounder upgraded to a limited participant, and he'll likely test out the ankle before Thursday's 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff.

Done for day
Ya-Sin (ankle) is ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Jaguars, Andrew Walker of the Colts' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
The Colts' secondary takes another hit, as Pierre Desir (hamstring) is already inactive while Kenny Moore (shin) left the game as well. That leaves just Marvell Tell and Shakial Taylor as the team's only healthy cornerbacks in this divisional matchup.

Suffers injury Sunday
Ya-Sin (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Jaguars, Andrew Walker of the Colts' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
It's unclear how Ya-Sin picked up the injury, but he was forced to exit late in the third quarter. In his stead, look for Marvell Tell and Shakial Taylor to see an increase in snaps. Ya-Sin already picked up an interception in the game, so his absence will be felt in the defense.
