Here are the latest injury updates from the Indianapolis Colts’ final Week 17 injury report.
The Indianapolis Colts released their final injury report ahead of Sunday’s Week 17 game against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Included are 13 players with injury designations, a number of whom have been ruled out.
The good news is that Shane Steichen said that he expects Sauce Gardner (calf) and Bernhard Raimann (elbow) to play on Sunday. Both are listed as questionable.
Gardner has missed the last three games and will give the Colts‘ secondary a needed boost. Raimann did not play against San Francisco.
Ashton Dulin (hamstring), who returned to practice for the first time this week after missing four games on injured reserve, is questionable.
Also questionable are Tyler Goodson (ankle), Dalton Tucker (shoulder), and Buddy Johnson (illness).
On the flip side, DeForest Buckner (neck) will be placed on season-ending injured reserve after re-aggravating his neck injury against San Francisco. That game was Buckner’s first since Week 8.
Also out this week are Tanor Bortolini (concussion), Anthony Gould (foot), Drew Ogletree (neck), and JT Tuimoloau (oblique).
In place of Bortolini, Danny Pinter took over at center against the 49ers. Coleman Owen will likely provide return help in Gould’s absence, while Will Mallory will bolster the tight end depth without Ogletree.
Anthony Richardson (eye) and Daniel Scott (knee), both of whom are still on IR, have been ruled out.
