The Indianapolis Colts (3-2) released their injury report following Thursday’s practice as they prepare for the home matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals (1-3-1) at Lucas Oil Stadium.
The Colts got some encouraging news on their injury report as defensive end Justin Houston returned to practice after being listed as a “Did Not Participate” on Wednesday. Houston was limited on Thursday and appears to be on track to play—barring a setback—which falls in line with his words earlier in the week.
Here’s a look at Thursday’s injury report for the Colts:
*DNP = Did Not Participate — LP = Limited Participant — FP = Full Participant*
| Name | Position | Injury | Wed. (10/14) | Thurs. (10/15) |
| Mo Alie-Cox | TE | Knee | DNP | DNP |
| Denico Autry | DE/DT | Ankle/Knee | DNP | DNP |
| Julian Blackmon | S | Groin | DNP | FP |
| Trey Burton | TE | Rest | DNP | FP |
| Justin Houston | DE | Hip | DNP | LP |
| Darius Leonard | LB | Groin | DNP | DNP |
| Anthony Castonzo | OT | Rib | LP | FP |
| Jordan Wilkins | RB | Calf | LP | DNP |
| Chaz Green | OT | Back | — | DNP |
Those who haven’t practiced yet this week include Autry, Alie-Cox and Leonard. They will have one more chance to practice before the designations come out on Friday.
It also seems Castonzo will be ready to go after missing Week 5 against the Browns. He was a full participant on Thursday, which means he’s likely heading into the weekend without a designation.
The Colts will release their injury designations on Friday’s injury report, which will give us a better idea on the players who haven’t practiced yet this week.
