The Indianapolis Colts were back on the practice field Thursday after only having a walkthrough on Wednesday. 

And it looks like C Ryan Kelly is taking another step in his progression through the NFL's concussion protocol. 

The Colts are heading to Nashville to take on the Tennessee Titans for their Week 13 matchup. Kelly being able to return to matchup with a player like Jeffery Simmons would be a huge lift for the Colts offense as they look to sweep the Titans this season. While Kelly is showing solid progression to returning this week, it is starting to look like the Colts will be without starting CB Juju Brents for the fifth straight week as he continues to deal with a quad injury. 

Thursday Injury Report: 

Did not practice: 

  • Juju Brents
  • Jonathan Taylor

The Colts were able to get most people back to practice on Thursday. Outside of Jonathan Taylor, who will be out this week after having surgery on Tuesday, the only player to miss practice today was CB Juju Brents. 

Limited Participant: 

  • DeForest Buckner

DeForest Buckner was a light participant in practice on Thursday after holding the same designation for Wednesday's walkthrough. As I said yesterday, I do not sense that Buckner is in danger of missing this game, as he has missed an entire week of practice and still played. 

Full Participant: 

  • Isaiah McKenzie
  • Ryan Kelly 
  • Drew Ogletree
  • Bernhard Raimann 

After being estimated as a non-practice participant for Wednesday's walkthrough, the Colts saw Isaiah McKenzie practice fully on Thursday. Along with Ryan Kelly, Bernhard Raimann, and Drew Ogletree are once again being listed as full participants on back-to-back injury reports. And hopefully the Colts will have all three for their Week 13 matchup with the Titans.
