With multiple starters expected to miss Week 8, the Indianapolis Colts elevated two players from their practice squad. 

The team announced the elevation of DT McTelvin Agim and CB Chris Lammons. 

Both Agim and Lammons are entering their first seasons with the Colts; after spending time with the team this offseason, neither made the team's initial 53-man roster. 

The Colts already know they will be without at least three starters as CB Juju Brents and RT Braden Smith have been ruled out due to injuries, on top of DT Grover Stewart missing the 2nd straight week due to his six-game suspension from the NFL. 

Agim is a name to watch for this Sunday, as the team's options at replacing Stewart are slim. I wouldn't be shocked if Agim plays a much more significant role than the typical practice squad elevation this week, as I expect the Colts to get creative with their personnel on the defensive line.
