Lowery had two interceptions and two tackles in Sunday's win over Tennessee. He returned one interception 69 yards for a touchdown.
Lowery also had two pass deflections as he's settling in as the starting free safety. He should get more tackles when opposing offenses focus on the run, which has been a weakness for the Colts.

Lowery started at free safety and had six tackles in Sunday's loss at Buffalo.
Lowery got almost all of the playing time at free safety as Clayton Geathers had just 11 snaps on defense compared to Lowry's 56 snaps. Lowery could be a good source of tackles as a result as he'll be heavily involved as offenses attack Indy's vulnerable run defense.

Lowery appears to have the edge over rookie Clayton Geathers for the starting free safety role, ESPN reports.
Geathers drew raves early in camp and could figure into the mix early in the season, but head coach Chuck Pagano like how Lowery is meshing with starting strong safety Mike Adams.
Fri Apr 3 201520:52Lowery agreed to terms on contract with Colts on Friday
Lowery agreed to terms on a contract with the Colts on Friday, Mike Chappell of RTV6 reports.
The terms of Lowery's contract haven't been disclosed, but the safety will likely take over as a starter alongside Mike Adams. He finished 2014 with one sack, 79 tackles (60 solo), two forced fumbles and one fumble recovery and could be a decent IDP option again in 2015.
Tue Dec 9 201416:46Lowery had game high 13 tackles in Monday's loss to Packers
Lowery had a game high 13 tackles in Monday's loss to the Packers.
11 of Lowery's 13 tackles were of the solo variety. He was a tackling force all night, and he's putting together a pretty solid season with 68 tackles, a forced fumble and two interceptions. He's a decent IDP option against potent offenses.

Lowery racked up 11 total tackles (seven solo) in Sunday's overtime win over the Saints.
Not every team is going to throw the ball 42 times against the Falcons, but Lowery made plays in the secondary and against the run. If the Falcons continue to play well, opposing offenses may be playing from behind, which would present Lowery with plenty of tackle and turnover opportunities.

Lowery racked up two solo tackles in Saturday's preseason game against the Texans.
Lowery suffered a concussion in early August, but he appears to be back to full health. He's in a battle with rookie Dezmen Southward to earn the starting free safety role, so he has to be happy his concussion symptoms didn't linger.
Sat Aug 2 201417:50Lowery suffered concussion Friday in training camp
Lowery suffered a concussion Friday in training camp, ESPN.com reports.
How long Lowery will be held out is uncertain. The Falcons are without their top-three free safeties with Dezmon Southward (knee) and Zeke Motta (neck) also injured.
Sat Aug 2 201413:04Lowery suffered head injury during Friday's practice
Lowery suffered a head injury during Friday's practice, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
Lowery is the favorite to start at free safety, but he may be challenged by rookie third-round draft pick Dezmon Southward, who is expected to miss the next week of practice due to a minor knee injury. With Zeke Motta (neck) on the preseason PUP list following December surgery, the Falcons are without their top three options at free safety. Southward should be back soon, and Lowery's injury likely isn't too serious, but Motta's return is still up in the air.
Wed Jun 4 201420:14Falcons giving Lowery first crack at FS
The Falcons are giving Dwight Lowery the first crack at their free safety opening.
The ex-Jet and Jaguar is practicing with the first-team defense alongside SS William Moore. Lowery has a checkered injury history, but range to cover center field and plus ball skills. Signed to a one-year, $760,000 deal in April, Lowery could end up one of GM Thomas Dimitroff's shrewdest offseason moves.

Tue Apr 8 201415:38Falcons sign FS Dwight Lowery
Falcons signed FS Dwight Lowery.
Lowery, 28, started three games for the Jaguars last season before landing on I.R. with a concussion. He was then waived in November. Lowery has started 41 games the past six seasons but has missed 28 contests over the same span. The Falcons need a free safety after Thomas DeCoud's release, but we don't see Lowery being that guy. GM Thomas Dimitroff will likely draft a safety.

Fri Nov 23 201213:31Dwight Lowery to return from ankle injury
Jaguars FS Dwight Lowery (ankle) will return in Week 12 against the Titans.
Coach Mike Mularkey stated Friday that Lowery will "for sure" be active for the first time since Week 5. LCB Rashean Mathis (groin) is also due back. The Jaguars have a solid secondary, but their inability to generate pass rush makes the defensive backs more vulnerable than they should be. This is still an attractive Week 12 fantasy matchup for Jake Locker and Kenny Britt.
