Ebukam is set to sign a three-year, $27 million deal with the Colts, Mike Chappell of Fox 59 News Indianapolis reports.
Ebukam is coming off a productive two-year stint with the 49ers after spending his first four seasons with the Rams. The defensive end recorded 74 tackles (42 solo), 9.5 sacks, two forced fumbles and a fumble recovery in 32 games over the last two years. He figures to play a big role on the Colts' defensive line in 2023.

Ebukam doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's divisional-round matchup against the Cowboys, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.
Ebukam left the 49ers' wild-card win over Seattle with an ankle injury and didn't return, though head coach Kyle Shanahan said the defensive end may have returned if the score had been closer. It appears the issue was indeed minor, as Ebukam logged a full practice Friday following back-to-back limited sessions and has been cleared for Sunday's playoff matchup.
Labeled day-to-day
Published: 2023-01-16
Head coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday that Ebukam (ankle) is considered day-to-day prior to this weekend's NFC divisional round, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
Although Ebukam departed Saturday's win over Seattle with an ankle issue, Shanahan noted that the sixth-year pro may have been able to return to the contest if the score was closer. With that being said, it currently sounds as if Ebukam will be available to play against the winner of Monday's matchup between the Buccaneers and the Cowboys, but his activity levels in practice throughout the week should correspond with his weekend availability.
Hurts ankle Saturday
Published: 2023-01-14
Ebukam injured his ankle during Saturday's 41-23 wild-card win against the Seahawks, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Coach Kyle Shanahan noted Ebukam may have been able to return if the game was close, but the defensive end finished with no stats to speak of. Considering Shanahan's comment, Ebukam's status for the divisional round likely isn't in question, but his practice reps nonetheless will be monitored as the week goes on.
