Colts vs. Patriots: Updated injury report for Week 10

Thursday’s injury report for the Colts and Patriots in Week 10.

The Indianapolis Colts (4-5) and New England Patriots (2-78) released their updated injury reports Thursday ahead of the Week 10 matchup at Deutsche Bank Park in Frankfurt, Germany.

Here’s a look at the updated injury report for the Colts in Week 9:

*DNP = Did Not Participate — LP = Limited Participant — FP = Full Participant*

Notes

  • The Colts returned to real practice Thursday after conducting a walkthrough Wednesday.
  • CB Julius Brents and TE Drew Ogletree were ruled out and will not travel with the team to Germany due to injuries.
  • Despite not practicing yet this week, WR Josh Downs is traveling with the team to give him a chance to play.
  • RT Braden Smith has been listed as a full participant for two consecutive practices, which means we should expect his return this week.
  • WR Alec Pierce was added to the injury report Thursday so that will be something to monitor going into the weekend.

Here’s a look at the updated injury report for the Patriots in Week 10:

Colts’ Julius Brents, Drew Ogletree will not travel to Germany

Julius Brents and Drew Ogletree will not be making the overseas trip.

Indianapolis Colts cornerback Julius Brents and tight end Drew Ogletree will not travel to Germany with the team and have been ruled out for the Week 10 matchup against the New England Patriots due to injuries, the team announced Thursday.

This is typical for players who don’t have a realistic shot of playing due to their injuries. Teams traveling overseas will leave those players back in the States while those who have a chance to play will make the trip.

Brents will miss his third consecutive game due to a quadriceps injury he suffered in Week 7 against the Cleveland Browns. It was expected that this would be a multi-week injury and with the bye coming in Week 11, the Colts aren’t taking any chances.

Ogletree will miss this game after sustaining a foot injury during the Week 9 win over the Carolina Panthers. He didn’t practice Wednesday or Thursday so it’s no surprise the Colts are holding him out of the Germany game.

It should be noted that wide receiver Josh Downs also has yet to log a practice this week due to a knee injury. However, the team believes he has a chance to play considering he was not ruled out.

The Colts will release their final injury report with game designations Friday after departing for Germany on Thursday night.

Colts vs. Panthers: Final injury report for Week 9

Here’s the final injury report for both teams in Week 9.

The Indianapolis Colts (3-5) and Carolina Panthers (1-6) released their final injury reports Friday ahead of the Week 9 matchup at Bank of America Stadium.

Here’s a look at the final injury report for the Colts in Week 9:

*DNP = Did Not Participate — LP = Limited Participant — FP = Full Participant*

Notes

  • As expected, the Colts will be without CB Julius Brents and RT Braden Smith.
  • The replacement for Smith at right tackle, rookie Blake Freeland, also is questionable after not practicing the final two days of the week. He’s considered a game-time decision.
  • LB Zaire Franklin is considered a game-time decision despite not practicing all week.
  • WR Josh Downs was able to practice after picking up a knee injury during Thursday’s practice, which is encouraging.
  • S Rodney Thomas II was added to the injury report Friday.

Here’s a look at the final injury report for the Panthers in Week 9:

Colts rule out two players vs. Panthers in Week 9

Two players were ruled out for Week 9.

The Indianapolis Colts ruled out right tackle Braden Smith and cornerback Julius Brents ahead of the Week 9 matchup against the Carolina Panthers, according to head coach Shane Steichen on Friday.

It’s no surprise that both of those players were ruled out considering they didn’t log a single practice. This will be Brents’ second consecutive missed game due to a quad injury he suffered in Week 7.

Meanwhile, Smith will miss his fourth consecutive game due to hip and wrist injuries.

As it pertains to linebacker Zaire Franklin, who is dealing with a knee injury, he is considered a game-time decision.

Smith’s expected replacement, rookie Blake Freeland, is also a game-time decision after suffering a back injury during practice this week. It isn’t clear who would start right tackle if both Smith and Freeland are out, but there’s a chance it would be Arlington Hambright.

Tight end Kylen Granson cleared the concussion protocol so he will be expected to play.

The Colts will release their final injury report with designations later Friday so that will give us a better idea of what the injury situation looks like.

Colts vs. Panthers: Initial injury report for Week 9

Here’s the Wednesday injury report for the Colts and Panthers.

The Indianapolis Colts (3-5) and Carolina Panthers (1-6) released their initial injury reports Wednesday ahead of the Week 9 matchup at Bank of America Stadium.

Here’s a look at the initial injury report for the Colts in Week 9:

*DNP = Did Not Participate — LP = Limited Participant — FP = Full Participant*

Notes

  • CB Julius Brents is not expected to practice this week and is likely to miss his second consecutive game.
  • LB Zaire Franklin picked up a knee injury during the Week 8 loss. He exited briefly before returning and finishing the game. DE Dayo Odeyingbo is also a new addition to the injury report compared to last week.
  • RT Braden Smith still has not practiced since suffering a hip injury during Thursday’s practice in Week 6. His status is still up in the air for this week.
  • TE Kylen Granson appears ready to return after missing the last two games. The same goes for DT Eric Johnson II, who was inactive in Week 8.

Here’s a look at the initial injury report for the Panthers in Week 9:

Colts’ Julius Brents to miss another week of practice

The rookie CB will be held out another week.

Indianapolis Colts cornerback Julius Brents will miss another week of practice as the team prepares for a road trip against the Carolina Panthers.

Brents is dealing with a quad injury he suffered in Week 7 against the Cleveland Browns. He didn’t practice at all in Week 8 and was inactive against the New Orleans Saints due to the injury.

Head coach Shane Steichen said it will be another week of missed practice as the rookie heals from the quad injury.

It’s been a tough go for Brents since the Colts selected him in the second round of the 2023 NFL draft. He missed the offseason workouts as he recovered from wrist surgery and missed a chunk of training camp and the preseason due to a hamstring injury.

This quad injury will keep him out this week and potentially in Week 10, especially considering the Colts have a bye in Week 11 so they may take the cautious route.

We’ll see how the Colts about replacing him on the boundary after Tony Brown’s struggles in Week 8, but the defense will once again be without a key piece on the secondary.
