Indianapolis Colts Injury Report: LT Raimann Ruled OUT While DE Lewis Is QUESTIONABLE

The Indianapolis Colts released their Friday practice report.

The Indianapolis Colts today released their Friday injury report for Week 12 of the NFL season ahead of their Sunday game against the Detroit Lions.

Left tackle Bernhard Raimann has been ruled OUT Sunday’s game against the Detroit Lions due to a knee. Raimann has not practiced all week due to the injury and this will be his second game missed. With Raimann OUT this week expect to see rookie Matt Goncalves line up at left tackle in place of Raimann at left tackle. Goncalves will be playing his fourth game in which he has replaced Raimann after as he already started one game in place of Raimann in week 9, he also replaced Raimann in week 10 when he exited with the knee injury and started last week too. Goncalves will have his hands full with the Lions defensive line which boasts some good pass rushers.

Defensive end Tyquan Lewis is listed as QUESTIONABLE for Sunday’s game against the Lions with an elbow injury. The Colts announced earlier in the week that they had opened the 21 day practice window for Lewis to return from injured reserve. Lewis was placed on injured reserve with an elbow injury and has missed seven games while in injured reserve. The team has a decision to make if he is fit enough to return on Sunday or if he needs another week of practice first. Lewis did practice all week.

All others listed on the injury report go into the game without an injury designation for Sunday’s home game. Braden Smith, Zaire Franklin, DeForest Buckner and Grover Stewart had scheduled rest days. Whilst Michael Pittman (back), Kenny Moore (knee) and Josh Downs (calf) also go into the game injury designation free as deemed healthy enough to play against the Lions.
