Riley Leonard - Week 18 start confirmed Coach Shane Steichen confirmed Wednesday that Leonard will start Sunday's season finale against the Texans, JJ Stankevitz of the Colts' official site reports.
Impact Additionally, Steichen noted that the Colts won't activate Anthony Richardson (orbital) from injured reserve this week. Veteran signal-caller Philip Rivers' three-week stint as the team's starter thus concludes, with practice squad member Seth Henigan a candidate to be elevated ahead of Week 18 action in order to back Leonard up. Leonard represents a fantasy lineup option for those scrambling for QB help this weekend, given that teams such as the Chargers (who plan to rest Justin Herbert) may elect to keep a number of starters out of harms way.

2026 NFL Draft: Fernando Mendoza, Dante Moore Lead Top QB Prospects
Zaire Franklin - Logs five stops vs. JAX Franklin posted five tackles (one solo) during the Colts' 23-17 loss to the Jaguars on Sunday.
Impact It was the second game in a row in which Franklin posted five tackles or less and the fourth time across 16 regular-season games. He's up to 113 combined tackles in 2025, but it's a far cry from his output in each of the three prior seasons, including in 2024 when he led the league with 173 combined tackles across 17 regular-season games. Franklin will look to finish the 2025 campaign strong this Sunday against the Texans.
DECEMBER 30, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Kenny Moore II - Ties career high with 10 stops Moore logged 10 tackles (eight solo), including two stops for a loss, during the Colts' 23-17 loss to the Jaguars on Sunday.
Impact Moore finished Sunday's contest as the Colts' second-leading tackler behind Nick Cross (12). It was the seventh time in Moore's career that he has logged 10 tackles in a game, which is his career high. The veteran corner is up to 54 tackles (34 solo), including 1.5 sacks, six pass defenses (including a pick-six) and two forced fumbles across 13 regular-season games.
DECEMBER 30, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Germaine Pratt - Makes key interception in red zone Pratt tallied seven tackles (five solo) and two pass defenses (one interception) during the Colts' 23-17 loss to the Jaguars on Sunday.
Impact Pratt recorded his first interception of the regular season late in the second quarter, when he picked off a pass from Trevor Lawrence intended for Parker Washington in the end zone, which resulted in a touchback. Pratt has been a key piece to the Colts' defense since joining the team in early October, and the 2019 third-rounder has logged 96 tackles (55 solo), eight pass defenses, one forced fumble and two fumble recoveries across 11 regular-season games with Indianapolis. With the Colts eliminated from playoff contention, Pratt will look to finish the 2025 campaign strong against the Texans this Sunday.
DECEMBER 30, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Nick Cross - Leads Indy with 12 stops Cross recorded 12 tackles (nine solo), including one stop for a loss, during the Colts' 23-17 loss to the Jaguars on Sunday.
Impact Cross and Camryn Bynum were the two Colts defenders to play all 69 defensive snaps, and it was the former who led the team in tackles. It was the second time this season Cross recorded double-digit stops in a game, and the fourth-year safety is up to 114 tackles (69 solo), including 2.5 sacks, five pass defenses (one interception) and one forced fumble through 16 regular-season games.

NFL Playoff Scenarios for Week 18: How Final 2 Playoff Spots, Seeding Can Be Settled

NFL Playoff Scenarios for Week 18: How Final 2 Playoff Spots, Seeding Can Be Settled
Anthony Richardson Sr. - Not expected back for finale The Colts aren't expected to activate Richardson (eye) from injured reserve ahead of Sunday's season finale versus the Texans, Stephen Holder and Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com report.
Impact Richardson was cleared to resume practicing Dec. 18, but he's been nothing more than a limited participant over the past two weeks while he has yet to regain full vision in his right eye since fracturing an orbital bone Oct. 12. The third-year quarterback should continue to practice in some fashion this week, but the Colts plan to have Riley Leonard make his first NFL start in the season finale, while Philip Rivers will serve as the No. 2 signal-caller. Richardson will thus close the season having made just two brief appearances at the tail end of blowout wins in Weeks 3 and 5, and Indianapolis will most likely decline the pricey fifth-year team option on his rookie contract this offseason. The 23-year-old will still remain on the Colts' books through next season, however, and he could be a candidate to open 2026 as the team's starter with Daniel Jones (Achilles) headed for free agency and at risk of missing time to begin the campaign even if Indianapolis re-signs him. The Colts' plans at quarterback for 2026 should gain more clarity early on during the offseason.

Philip Rivers - Heading to bench for Week 18 Rivers is set to move to the bench for Sunday's season finale against the Texans with the Colts planning to have rookie Riley Leonard start at quarterback in Week 18, Stephen Holde...
Impact After they were officially eliminated from playoff contention over the weekend, the Colts will approach the season finale with an eye on opening up reps for younger players like Leonard. The 44-year-old Rivers will thus move into a backup role to close out the season, ending his brief run as the Colts' starter after he was lured out of a four-year retirement to rejoin Indianapolis following Daniel Jones' season-ending Achilles injury in Week 14. Though the Colts went 0-3 in his starts to see their playoff hopes dwindle, Rivers performed competently in his first NFL action since January 2021, completing 58 of 92 attempts for 544 yards, four touchdowns and three interceptions. Rivers is expected to head back into retirement following the season finale.
DECEMBER 30, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Riley Leonard - In line to start season finale The Colts plan to have Leonard start at quarterback in Sunday's season finale at Houston, Stephen Holder and Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com report.
Impact With the Colts getting eliminated from playoff contention over the past weekend, 44-year-old Philip Rivers will head to the bench following a three-game run as starter as head coach Shane Steichen turns the offense over to Leonard. A rookie sixth-round pick out of Notre Dame, Leonard has seen spot playing time in three of his four appearances this season, with his lone extended action coming in Week 14 at Jacksonville after Daniel Jones exited early with a season-ending Achilles injury. Altogether, Leonard has completed 18 of 33 pass attempts for 145 yards, zero touchdowns and two interceptions while adding six yards and a score on three carries. Though Leonard likely isn't seen as the Colts' long-term answer at quarterback, a strong showing in Week 18 could strengthen his case for sticking around as a backup option heading into 2026.
