The Indianapolis Colts today released their Friday injury report for Week 15 of the NFL season against the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday.
Right tackle Braden Smith has been ruled OUT for this Sunday’s game against the Seattle Seahawks due to neck and concussion injuries. Smith has been unable to practice all week, and therefore, will be unavailable this Sunday. In his place, it will likely be rookie Jalen Travis who starts at right tackle.
Cornerback Sauce Gardner has been ruled OUT for this Sunday’s game against the Seattle Seahawks with a calf injury. Gardner is still rehabbing a calf injury that is likely to sideline him for multiple weeks. Gardner hid not practice all week. With Gardner out this week, expect Mekhi Blackmon and Jaylon Jones to start at outside corner, with veteran Charvarius Ward (concussion) having been placed on injured reserve again earlier this week.
Wide receiver (special teams returnman) Anthony Gould has been ruled OUT of this Sundays game against the Seattle Seahawks with a foot injury. This won’t be the first game Gould has missed this year with injury. Josh Downs will likely take over Gould’s returning duties in his absence.
Defensive tackle DeForest Buckner had been ruled OUT of this Sunday’s game against the Seattle Seahawks with a neck injury. Buckner is still trying to work his way back from injured reserve but after three limited practices this week, it was too soon for him to return to game action.
Defensive end Tyquan Lewis has been ruled as QUESTIONABLE for this Sundays game against the Seattle Seahawks due to a groin injury. Lewis has managed two practices this week including a full practice today. Lewis looks like he may have a good shot at playing this week, but will be one to watch out for on the inactives list.
