The Indianapolis Colts (3-5) will be on the road this week to take on the Carolina Panthers (1-6).

And before the week got started, they decided to cancel practice today and only hold a walkthrough.

The Colts will have a walkthrough today, just to ease the practice load a little bit this week after four straight padded Wednesday. They're two games from the bye week.

Head coach Shane Steichen has already announced that CB Juju Brents will not practice this week, which would set him up to miss his 2nd straight week due to his quad injury. Steichen also didn't sound too optimistic about RT Braden Smith's chances of returning to practice.

JuJu Brents will not practice this week, Shane Steichen says.

Did Not Practice:

Juju Brents
Zaire Franklin
Dayo Odeyingbo
Braden Smith

Full Participant:

Kylen Granson
Eric Johnson II

Seeing both Granson and Johsnon II would have been able to return to practice if there a practice was good to see. This is a solid step towards Granson being able to clear the NFL's concussion protocol. And if the Colts were able to get Johnson II, back it would give them another option at NT while Grover Stewart serves his six-game suspension.
