The Indianapolis Colts today released their Wednesday injury report for Week 15 of the NFL season against the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday.
Defensive tackle DeForest Buckner was a limited participant at practice today with a neck injury. Buckner had been on injured reserve due to a back injury for the past 4 weeks. If the Colts can get him back for the last few weeks of the regular season, it would be a huge boost for the defense.
Cornerback Sauce Garner continues to miss practice this week after sustaining a calf injury two weeks ago. Gardner will likely miss practice all week and be ruled out of Sunday’s road game in Seattle. The hope is for him to return before the end of the regular season.
Rookie quarterback Riley Leonard was a full participant today. Leonard was thrust into a starting role on Sunday after Daniel Jones exited with a torn Achilles. Leonard managing a full practice today keeps his availability open should he be needed to start Sunday vs the Seahawks. The quarterback position is so upside down at the moment but having Leonard as an option is positive news.
Defensive end Tyquan Lewis missed practice today with a groin injury. Lewis continues his weekly battle with his groin injury rehab again. Lewis will likely practice in some capacity tomorrow before the team makes a decision on his availability on Friday.
Right tackle Braden Smith missed practice today with neck and concussion injuries. Smith had entered the concussion protocol and will likely miss this week’s game whilst trying to pass through safely. If Smith is unable to play, expect a start for rookie Jalen Travis at right tackle or 2nd-year offensive guard Dalton Tucker at right guard.
