The Indianapolis Colts (3-4) and Tennessee Titans (5-2) released updated injury reports on Thursday ahead of the Week 8 matchup at Lucas Oil Stadium.
This is likely the most encouraging injury report the Colts have had all season and it’s coming at the perfect time. This rematch against the Titans will go a long way in determining the stretch run for the playoffs at the end of the regular season.
Here is a look at the updated injury report for the Colts in Week 8:
*DNP = Did Not Participate — LP = Limited Participant — FP = Full Participant*
| Player | Injury | Wed. (10/27) | Thur. (10/28) | Fri. (10/29) | Status |
| WR T.Y. Hilton | Quad | DNP | LP | ||
| CB BoPete Keyes | Hamstring | DNP | DNP | ||
| CB Xavier Rhodes | Calf | DNP | FP | ||
| RB Nyheim Hines | Ribs | LP | FP | ||
| T Braden Smith | Foot/Thumb | LP | FP | ||
| RB Jonathan Taylor | Ribs | LP | FP | ||
| DE Kemoko Turay | Groin | LP | FP | ||
| CB Rock Ya-Sin | Ankle | LP | FP | ||
| RB Jordan Wilkins | Non-Football Illness | FP | FP |
Notes
- Again, this is the most encouraging injury report of the season with just one player listed as a non-participant. In order for CB BoPete Keyes to play on Sunday, he’ll likely have to log at least a limited practice Friday.
- It seems RT Braden Smith is ready to make his return after being listed as a full participant. That’s going to be huge for the offensive line.
- CB Xavier Rhodes also appears to be good to go barring a setback. He was close to not playing in Week 7 after suffering a calf injury during pregame warmups.
- Though listed as a limited participant, it’s still wise to monitor WR T.Y. Hilton’s status. There’s a lot of optimism he will play, but the team will be very cautious not to put him in a position to re-injure himself.
- Both DE Kemoko Turay and CB Rock Ya-Sin appear to be ready to make their returns to the field with full participant logs for the first time in weeks.
