The Indianapolis Colts have released their final injury report updated with statuses for the Week 1 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars at TIAA Bank Field.
Despite missing practice on Thursday, the Colts saw the return of All-Pro left guard Quenton Nelson from a back injury on Friday. That bodes well for his chances to play on Sunday.

Here’s a look at the final injury report with game statuses ahead of the Week 1 opener:
Name | Position | Injury | Wed. (9/9) | Thurs. (9/10) | Fri. (9/11) | Game Status |
Matthew Adams | LB | Ankle | LP | LP | FP | Quest. |
Julian Blackmon | S | Knee | LP | LP | LP | OUT |
Anthony Castonzo | OT | Rest/Oblique | LP | LP | DNP | |
Ryan Kelly | C | Rest/Knee | LP | LP | DP | |
Dezmon Patmon | WR | Knee | LP | FP | FP | |
Quenton Nelson | G | Back | — | DNP | FP | |
Justin Houston | DE | Rest/Calf | — | LP | DNP | |
T.Y. Hilton | WR | Rest | — | — | DNP | |
Denico Autry | DT | Rest | — | — | DNP |
This is a very encouraging sign that the Colts only ruled out one player on Friday. Given that Nelson, Kelly and Castzono were either limited or didn’t practice, this is a great sign for the offensive line as all three will be starting.
The Colts and Jaguars are set to kickoff on Sunday at 1:00 p.m. ET at TIAA Bank Field on CBS.
