The Indianapolis Colts are looking to get back in the win column in Week 6 after dropping their Week 5 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
They entered last week without eight starters and have the chance to get some back on the field for this Sunday's road game against the Tennessee Titans.
They saw multiple players who weren't able to suit up in Week 5 return to the practice field on Wednesday, and surprisingly, a couple of starters were also added to the report.
The good news from the Colts' Wednesday injury report
Thankfully, the Colts were able to get four starters back on the practice field Wednesday after not playing in Week 5. Those players are QB Anthony Richardson (limited participant), CB Kenny Moore (limited participant), Edge Kwity Paye (limited participant), and C Ryan Kelly (full participant). The team's defense desperately needs a boost, so it would be massive if they could get Moore and Paye back this week. On the offensive end, the team seems drastically more optimistic about Richardson's chances of playing against the Titans than a week ago against the Jaguars. And with the team losing RG Will Fries to injury, getting starting C Kelly back on the field is just what the doctor ordered, as the team's offensive line looks to continue their start to the 2024 season.
The bad news from the Colts' Wednesday injury report
Now for the bad news. While the Colts saw four players who missed Week 5 practice, they were still without star RB Jonathan Taylor, who continues to work his way back from a high ankle sprain he suffered against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Along with Taylor missing practice, the Colts also added WRs Michael Pittman Jr. and Josh Downs, who weren't on the injury report last week. Starting RT Braden Smith continues to battle through a knee injury that limited him in practice last week and had him questionable for Week 5 before he ultimately played. With two more practices remaining, the Colts have plenty of time to see some of these players take the field to prepare for Sunday's game. But I'd say we need to monitor all four starters very closely because if any of them can't play, it'll be a massive blow to the Colts.
Jim Irsay blatantly denied former NFL head coach Bill Belichick’s accusation of the Colts cheating in the past
With Peyton Manning, one half of the infamous Manning Cast on Monday Night Football, it's not uncommon for the Indianapolis Colts to be mentioned. But this past week, it came in a surprising fashion. Former New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick accused the team of pumping in fake crowd noise in the past. Belichick […]
Can Colts RB Jonathan Taylor join Derrick Henry in a club many believed would never accept new members in again
In Week 5, Derrick Henry became the 32nd player to reach 10,000 career rushing yards in the NFL. Before him, the most recent players to do so were Marshawn Lynch (last played in 2019), LeSean McCoy (last played in 2020), and Adrian Peterson (last played in 2021). Due to the shift in the NFL, where the run game […]
