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...

According to Outkick’s Armando Salguero, the Indianapolis Colts didn’t just reach out to recently re-signed quarterback Philip Rivers among retired veteran options, as the team also reached out to Derek Carr:

“Why are the Colts doing this? Start with the fact they called other quarterbacks to gauge their interest in signing. They called Derek Carr, per a source,” Salguero writes.

The 34-year-old Carr, who’s a decade younger than Rivers, declined the opportunity. The 4x NFL Pro Bowl quarterback played 11 years in the NFL, most notably with the Raiders organization, before retiring this past May due to longstanding pain...

Indianapolis, IN — There’s almost no way to shake the Philip Rivers signing as being the definitive best possible option moving forward, yet somehow the familiarity between him and this current Indianapolis Colts team suggests that maybe it is. The initial absurdity of such a move is undeniably valid, but when you peel back the onion, you see that moving to a 44-year-old quarterback who’s been retired for half a decade isn’t the wildest decision ever.

Will turning to a quarterback who is older than thirteen NFL head coaches, including his own, be crazy, no matter that? Understandable if so....

Indianapolis Colts unretired longtime NFL veteran quarterback Philip Rivers will wear #17 again for the Horseshoe, which was the same number he wore back in 2020—and throughout his 8x NFL Pro Bowl career with the Chargers organization, as well as for NC State and in high school:

Because injured starting quarterback Daniel Jones was placed on injured reserve with a season-ending Achilles injury, his #17 is eligible to be recirculated to Rivers for the remainder of the 2025 campaign.

Per NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo, an NFL spokesman indicated that, [**“The league approved it as it does not present a competitive...

The Indianapolis Colts announced on Wednesday that the team has placed starting veteran cornerback Charvarius Ward on injured reserve, who suffered his third concussion of the season.

While such a roster move means that Ward will be out for the remainder of the 2025 regular season, he likely will have to perform his own contemplation with his family on whether he wants to continue his playing career, given the reoccurring head injuries. Ward needs to focus on his health first and foremost.

The Colts also announced that they have signed placekicker Blake Grupe and quarterback Brett Rypien from the team’s...

Let me start by saying that much of what you read from here on will be more fan based, than journalistically based. It is not as if anyone was getting me confused with Frank Deford anyway, but I always hope that at the end of an article, you feel like responding. It doesn’t matter whether you agree or not, I simply hope it puts you in a place where you feel like expressing yourself. It is hard for me to write negative, or sometimes even neutral material, for a team that I’ve let into my fabric. Brace yourself, here comes...

When telling the story of the NFL, there are many chapters and footnotes one must remember to encapsulate what this sport and league is all about. The Colts in their lengthy history have no shortage of these to tell.

They can range wildly in tone and emotions. From a heartwarming story of players rallying behind a coach stricken with leukemia to make miraculous comeback victories to the playoffs.

To the tragic cautionary tale of a quarterback not given enough support around him and medically retiring early in a career thought to be destined for greatness. The Colts truly can encapsulate...

On Tuesday, the Indianapolis Colts announced a number of roster moves, including placing starting quarterback Daniel Jones (Achilles) and backup cornerback Chris Lammons (foot) on injured reserve.

The Colts also signed cornerback Cameron Mitchell to the active roster and re-signed cornerback Tony Pride Jr. to the team’s practice squad again.

With veteran cornerback Charvarius Ward also in the concussion protocol, having suffered his third concussion of the season this past Sunday, the Colts clearly were looking to bolster their cornerback depth with some familiar faces—having both Ward and Lammons out of action for Week 15 on the road against the...

Colts’ wide receivers

The Colts were in passing mode most of the game after going down 14 points early in the second quarter, and the wide receivers took full advantage of the opportunity presented. Pierce and Pittman combined for 13 catches on 20 targets and close to 160 yards, while Josh Downs also got in a bit of the action after being a non-factor the past few weeks. The quarterback situation is unclear right now whether Leonard or Rivers will start, but the rookie looked somewhat competent so the receivers could still be productive.

According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero, the Indianapolis Colts are signing 44-year-old quarterback Philip Rivers, who is coming out of retirement with his old team.

This is indeed a desperate call for a desperate measure, given that the Colts are facing a winless finish regardless of who they turn to at quarterback. The 8-5 Colts currently sit just outside of the AFC’s 7th playoff spot, with the Houston Texans serving as its placeholder thanks to a head-to-head tiebreaker over Indy. The Colts are no longer in control of their own destiny; thus, they are trying to create...

According to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler, longtime since retired 44-year-old veteran quarterback Philip Rivers actually worked out for the suddenly desperate Indianapolis Colts on Monday—and reportedly ‘threw well’:

Further, per ESPN’s Pat McAfee, following his shocking, yet impressive workout last night “all indications are that Rivers will be announced as the Colts quarterback at some point today”:

Obviously, things have been moving blazing fast in Indianapolis over the last 72 hours.

Having lost starting quarterback Daniel Jones to a season-ending torn Achilles and seen rookie 3rd-string quarterback Riley Leonard’s status (with 2nd-stringer Anthony Richardson already unavailable) for this weekend’s road game...

Assuming Riley Leonard is fully healthy, he has a big opportunity in front of him.

The Colts enter the final four games of the season without clarity at the most important position in football — not because they lack options, but because none of those options are firmly settled. Daniel Jones’ future is murky. Anthony Richardson is under contract and still developing. And the draft and trade markets offer no easy answers. That uncertainty creates a rare evaluation window for Leonard, who now finds himself with the keys to a functional offense and a legitimate chance to change how the...
