Linebacker Zaire Franklin returned to practice today in a full capacity. Franklin missed practice yesterday due to an illness but it looks like he is back to full healthy and should be available for Sunday.
Right tackle Braden Smith also returned to practice today in a full capacity. Smith missed practice yesterday due to an ongoing knee injury but with a full practice today looks set to be available Sunday too.
Center Ryan Kelly continued to miss practice today after missing yesterday’s practice too with a neck injury. Kelly is in danger of missing back to back games with the neck injury. Luckily for the Colts they have a solid backup who can play if necessary in Tanor Bortolini.
Like Kelly, cornerback Kenny Moore has also missed back to back practices. Moore has been dealing with a hip injury and like Kelly looks in danger of missing two games with the injury. If Moore can’t play Sunday expect the Colts to stick with Jones, Womack and Lammons at corner.
Defensive end Kwity Paye missed practice again today with a quad injury. Paye is more than likely going to be out again this week. His injury is more of a week to week injury and it will be the second gave he will miss because of it.
Quarterback Anthony Richardson was limited again today at practice with an oblique injury. Richardson practiced today in similar fashion as he did the previous day. Richardson looks to be heading towards being a questionable game day designation. If Richardson is unable to play Sunday Joe Flacco will lead the offense once more.
Running back Jonathan Taylor missed practice again today with an ankle injury. Taylor has missed both practices this week with a high ankle sprain. Taylor spoke to the media today and was positive but his chances of playing Sunday are looking very slim currently.
