Texans-Colts Tuesday injury report: No change with Justin Reid and his concussion

The Houston Texans released their Tuesday injury report ahead of their game with the Indianapolis Colts, and safety Justin Reid did not participate.

The Houston Texans released their Tuesday injury report ahead of their Week 12 Thursday night encounter with the Indianapolis Colts.

While the Texans didn’t have practice officially, they did release an injury report with an estimation of what participation would have been like. For the second consecutive day, safety Justin Reid was listed as not being a participant as he is in the concussion protocol along with fellow safety Mike Adams. As such, it looks like a long shot the defensive backs will be able to play against the Colts.

CB Lonnie Johnson Ankle

WR Will Fuller Hamstring

The Indianapolis Colts (6-4) held another walkthrough on Tuesday as they prepare for the short week and a divisional matchup against the Houston Texans (6-4) at NRG Stadium.

While the injury report looks better than it did on Monday, there are still several question marks as to the status of a number of players ahead of the Week 12 matchup.

Because the Colts conducted another walkthrough, this is an estimate of what the participation levels would be.

DNP: Did not participate / LP: Limited Participant / FP: Full Participant

Name Position Injury Mon. Tue. Wed. Game
Mo Alie-Cox TE Thumb DNP LP
Anthony Castonzo OL Toe DNP FP
Eric Ebron TE Ankle DNP DNP

The Colts will release the injury designations on Wednesday as they prepare for the crucial divisional matchup in Week 12.

The Indianapolis Colts (6-4) have a short week to prepare for the Thursday night primetime matchup against the Houston Texans (6-4) at NRG Stadium.

Two players have already been ruled out in safety Khari Willis and running back Marlon Mack. The Colts held a walkthrough on Monday but still released an injury report that is littered with names.

New Orleans Saints inactive report for Week 11 at Buccaneers

The New Orleans Saints and Tampa Bay Buccaneers reported their inactive players for Week 11, including Deonte Harris and Marshon Lattimore.

[jwplayer sXmBDaQ3]

The New Orleans Saints are going to be without multiple key players during their game with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, with starters like Marshon Lattimore (hamstring) and Andrus Peat (broken arm) preemptively ruled out for Sunday on the final injury report. Rookie returns specialist Deonte Harris (also managing a hamstring issue) joined them. This could be the first look fans have at free agent guard Nick Easton, who signed a four-year, $22.5 million contract in the offseason but has only played a handful of special teams snaps this year behind Peat and backup Will Clapp.

However, the Buccaneers are also banged up. They cut their leader in snaps played at cornerback (Vernon Hargreaves III) earlier this week, and they’ll also have to sit their third corner, M.J. Stewart, who is battling a knee injury. The cornerback ranked second on the depth chart behind Hargreaves, Carlton Davis, was listed as questionable to play but Buccaneers coach Bruce Arians said will suit up. Tampa Bay is also without two outside linebackers in Anthony Nelson and Carl Nassib.

Here’s the full list of players who are inactive for this game:

From the Saints

  • CB Marshon Lattimore
  • OL Andrus Peat
  • WR Deonte Harris
  • DE Carl Granderson
  • OL Ethan Greenidge
  • TE Dan Arnold
  • WR Austin Carr

[lawrence-related id=22156,22338,22489]

From the Buccaneers

  • CB M.J. Stewart
  • LB Anthony Nelson
  • LB Carl Nassib
  • CB Mazzi Wilkins
  • OL Aaron Stinnie
  • OL Jerald Hawkins
  • TE Jordan Leggett

Chargers final injury report: 2 doubtful, 3 questionable

The Los Angeles Chargers released their final injury report ahead of Week 11 on Saturday.

The Los Angeles Chargers had their last practice on Saturday before traveling to Mexico City to take on the Kansas City Chiefs.

Here is a look at the final injury report:

Out

OT Sam Tevi

Doubtful

WR Geremy Davis
RB Justin Jackson

Questionable

S Roderic Teamer
OT Russell Okung
LS Cole Mazza

Right tackle Sam Tevi has officially been ruled out. Trent Scott will start in place of him. Meanwhile, left tackle Russell Okung is questionable, which means there’s a chance he will play. If he can’t go, Trey Pipkins would get the start.

Safety Roderic Teamer and long snapper Cole Mazza are questionable, as well. Teamer hasn’t played since Week 8, as he’s been dealing with a groin injury. If Mazza isn’t good for Monday’s matchup, recently acquired Matt Overton will start.

Wide receiver Geremy Davis and running back Justin Jackson are both doubtful.

Notre Dame/Navy: Injury Update (Pre-Game)

The bad news?

McKinley has pulled in 11 receptions and four touchdowns for Notre Dame this year.

Dolphins final injury report for Week 11 versus Buffalo

Will the Dolphins be without key starters against Buffalo in Week 11? The team has released their final injury report for this week.

The Miami Dolphins’ lack of depth is starting to get tested, but you’d never know it based on the product the team has fielded over the last two weeks. Miami is playing tough, scrappy football — they’re never going to blow anyone out but they’ve very much embraced the “next man up” mentality on both sides of the football.

There may be a few men up next this week against the Buffalo Bills — because the Dolphins’ injury report for Week 11 against Buffalo is extensive. And that’s putting it mildly.

All things considered, it is a win for the Dolphins to see just one confirmed player out in CB Ken Webster. And after several weeks of inactivity, the expectation for both DE Avery Moss and S Reshad Jones is that they’ll both dress and be ready to go this week against Buffalo.

But there are some important Dolphins included on this report, several of which would be killer losses for Miami in their hopes to secure a third consecutive win. Among them is LB Raekwon McMillan, who was limited all week at practice and is formally a game-time decision. So, too, is DE Taco Charlton, Miami’s sack leader through nine games this season.

And with offensive absences like WR Preston Williams (ACL) and RB Mark Walton (suspension), the Dolphins are strained on both sides of the ball. No NFL game is easy — but being stretched this thin with injuries after already having a roster devoid of talent is a pretty brutal development. In order to absorb the blow, Miami must continue to do the little things right: tackle, protect the ball, don’t get penalties and stay ahead of the chains.

How effective will they be in doing so with the “next man up”? We’ll find out tomorrow.

Who returns punts with Deonte Harris injured?

The New Orleans Saints will be without their breakout star punt returner against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers so who fills in for Deonte Harris?

[jwplayer FXiwQx5O]

Breakout rookie punt returner Deonte Harris was an unexpected absentee on the New Orleans Saints injury report, with the team ruling him out for their Sunday game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Harris’s loss is huge; he’s been the best to do it for New Orleans since Sean Payton was hired as head coach, and the rookie is the only player in the NFL with 200-plus yards on both punts and kickoffs.

Unfortunately, a late-game hamstring injury versus the Atlanta Falcons has put his availability in doubt, though the team already put him on the shelf this week. Hopefully this won’t become a lingering issue that derails his promising NFL debut.

In the meantime, who will the Saints roll out to fill in for him against the Buccaneers?

The easy answer on punts is Ted Ginn Jr., who has the most NFL experience doing that of anyone else left on the roster. But Saints coach Sean Payton has been critical of Ginn’s shaky hands in the past and may prefer to give younger teammates a shot first.

One of those candidates could be Krishawn Hogan, who was the only other player warming up as a punt returner next to Harris before last week’s Falcons game. Hogan has only played a handful of snaps so far, mostly blocking on run plays, but he might be someone Payton considers for the job.

Two other names to monitor are players more familiar with Saints fans: quarterback Taysom Hill and running back Alvin Kamara. They have both returned punts and kickoffs in the past, with Kamara notching a 106-yard kickoff return for a touchdown against Tampa Bay back in his 2017 rookie season. He’s since eased off of return duties due to his value on offense, but it’s possible the Saints get desperate for a spark and trot him out.
