    MINNEAPOLIS — The Indianapolis Colts, taking advantage of an early defensive stand against the Minnesota Vikings, blocked a punt that was plucked from the air by linebacker JoJo Domann, who returned it 24 yards for a touchdown.<\/p>\n

    The Colts had just forced a fourth down for the Vikings when defensive tackle DeForest Buckner and Grover Stewart converged on quarterback Kirk Cousins. That put the Vikings in a punt situation. Defensive end Ifeadi Odenigbo managed to penetrate the coverage from the inside and got a hand on punter Ryan Wright’s attempt.<\/p>\n

    The deflection sent the ball flying up in the air, allowing Domann to easily catch it on the run.<\/p>\n

    The score put the Colts up 10-0 in the first quarter.<\/p>\n

    The Colts have sorely needed non-offensive touchdowns this season given their struggling offense, which ranks 31st in scoring.<\/p>\n
