Dwight Freeney

The Colts pass-rushing specialist sprained his right ankle against the Jets.


Dwight Freeney, who led the team with 13.5 sacks despite missing 4 games in the regular season, is expected to play in the Super Bowl, according to team president Bill Polian.

Freeney, who dealt with knee, hip and abdomen injuries during the season, got hurt with about 2 minutes left in the AFC title game.

Polian said WR Reggie Wayne had swelling in one of his knees but should also suit up against the Saints, as will S Antoine Bethea (back) and rookie RB Donald Brown (toe).
