DeForest Buckner - Page 7 - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Game-time decision Buckner (back) did not practice Thursday, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.

Impact Buckner has yet to practice this week as he continues to tend to a back injury he suffered in Week 1 against the Texans. It wouldn't be surprising to see the Oregon product sit out Friday as well, in an attempt to maximize his recovery time ahead of Sunday's game against the Packers. He told Boyd in the locker room that he would be a game-time decision for the matchup and clarity of his status for it probably won't come until the team announces its inactive list about 90 minutes before the 1 p.m. ET kickoff.

Stays sidelined Buckner (back) will not practice Wednesday, Mike Chappell of Fox 59 News Indianapolis reports.

Impact Buckner suffered the injury late in Week 1's loss to the Texans and is still tending to the injury. However, head coach Shane Steichen was hopeful the veteran would be able to suit up for Week 2 on Monday. His absence Wednesday should probably be taken lightly in any attempt to prognosticate his availability for Sunday's game against the Packers. He'll try to get back on the field Thursday or Friday, but it wouldn't be surprising if Buckner was able to play without practicing this week either.

Hopeful for Week 2 Head coach Shane Steichen is hopeful Buckner (back) will be able to play this Sunday against the Packers, Joel A. Erickson of The Indianapolis Star reports.

Impact Buckner left late in Sunday's 29-27 loss to the Texans, recording six total tackles, including 1.5 sacks, before his exit. Any missed time for the Oregon product, whom Steichen described as "tough as nails" when discussing his potential Week 2 availability, would be a major blow for the Colts' defense. Buckner's practice status in the days ahead may help shed some light on how likely he'll be to play against Green Bay, but it is also possible he could just suit up without practicing this week.
