GLENDALE, Ariz. -- Indianapolis Colts defensive end Dwight Freeney says he will have an MRI after injuring his right quadriceps during the third quarter of Sunday night's game against the Arizona Cardinals.

Freeney said the injury occurred on a play in which he was held by a blocker.

Freeney, the franchise's career leader in sacks and a four-time Pro Bowler, said he "felt something pop" on the play. Freeney's fierce pass rush was a big factor for the Colts' defense in a 31-10 victory.
