Key injuries to monitor for both sides
Colts: Their CB room
The Colts’ CB room has been hit hard by injuries this season and could be without both of its stars in the room in Week 7. Charvarius Ward suffered a concussion during pre-game warm ups last week, and the odds of him clearing protocol in time seem slim, but every concussion is different, so we will have to monitor his status throughout the week. The Colts have been without slot CB Kenny Moore II for the past three weeks. He is giving it a go to begin practice ahead of Week 7, and if he can play, it would be a big boost for the Colts’ defense. Having a banged-up CB room against a special QB like Justin Herbert isn’t ideal, and the Colts will have to figure out a way to minimize its impact on the game.
Chargers: Offensive line
The Chargers’ roster is dealing with injuries at multiple positions, but the one impacting them the most is their offensive line. They have been playing with their third-string left tackle for most of the season due to Rashawn Slater suffering a season-ending injury, and young star Joe Alt also having to miss time. Alt could potentially return to the field this week, but no update has been shared on his status at this time. Whether he plays or not will have a significant impact on the Chargers’ game plan for the Colts and will be one of the biggest storylines to follow ahead of Sunday’s matchup.
