Packers aren't ruling out Jordan Love for Colts game even as Malik Willis prepares to start

Green Bay Packers coach Matt LaFleur still isn’t ruling out the possibility Jordan Love could play Sunday against the Indianapolis Colts as the quarterback recovers from a knee inj...
SEPTEMBER 11, 2024 • Associated Press
Julian Blackmon - Dealing with shoulder issue Blackmon (shoulder) didn't participate in Wednesday's practice.
Impact Indianapolis' top strong safety logged 13 total tackles during the team's Week 1 loss, but it appears he may have sustained a shoulder injury in that effort. Blackmon's practice participation Thursday and Friday will provide a better indication of whether the 26-year-old will be able to suit up for the Colts in Week 2.
SEPTEMBER 11, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Kwity Paye - Misses Wednesday's practice Paye (hamstring) didn't participate in Wednesday's practice.
Impact Paye logged 1.0 sack during the Colts' Week 1 loss, but he now appears to be dealing with a hamstring issue that could put his Week 2 status in jeopardy. If the 2021 first-round pick misses more practices throughout the week, expect Laiatu Latu to see increased work with the Colts' first-team defense.
SEPTEMBER 11, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Josh Downs - Logs limited practice Downs (ankle) was limited at practice Wednesday.
Impact Downs, who continues to progress in his recovery from a high-ankle sprain that he sustained Aug. 7, noted per James Boyd of The Athletic, the he felt "70 percent" last week and is now feeling in the "80-90 percent" range. At this stage, the wideout says that the key to him feeling capable of playing this Sunday against the Packers rests in his ability to run and cut without thinking about his ankle.
SEPTEMBER 11, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Matt Gay - All clear for Week 2 Gay (sports hernia) practiced in full Wednesday.
Impact Gay looks all set to suit up against the Packers on Sunday after having sat out Week 1 while recovering from sports hernia surgery. Coach Shane Steichen said Wednesday that Gay is "good to go" to suit up on the road in Green Bay, per George Bremer of The Anderson Herald Bulletin, so fantasy managers should have complete confidence in the starting kicker's availability now that he's practicing without restrictions.
SEPTEMBER 11, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
DeForest Buckner - 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.
SEPTEMBER 11, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Matt Gay - Should play Week 2 Head coach Shane Steichen stated that Gay (sports hernia) is "good to go" for Sunday's game against the Packers, George Bremer of The Anderson Herald Bulletin reports.
Impact Gay is expected to return to practice Wednesday after being out of action since undergoing surgery, according to James Boyd of The Athletic. The Utah product was replaced by Spencer Shrader for Week 1's loss to the Texans, who has since reverted to the team's practice squad. However, an official word on who will be kicking for the Colts in Week 2 won't come until Gay is absent from the team's injury report.
SEPTEMBER 11, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Josh Downs - Set for limited practice Downs (ankle) is slated to be a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.
Impact Downs -- who is bouncing back from a high-ankle sprain that he sustained Aug. 7 -- continues to make progress, with his looming practice participation representing a key step toward potentially returning to action this weekend versus the Packers. In the Colts' Week 1 loss to the Texans, Alec Pierce and Adonai Mitchell saw added WR snaps behind top option Michael Pittman.
SEPTEMBER 11, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Chris Lammons - Signed to Colts' roster The Colts signed Lammons from the practice squad to the active roster Tuesday.
Impact Lammons was unable to make the Colts' 53-man roster at the end of training camp, but he will join the active roster after JuJu Brents was placed on injured reserve due to a knee injury. Lammons played 22 snaps on special teams in the Colts' 29-27 loss to the Texans on Sunday, and he finished with no tackles. With Brents sidelined, Lammons is expected to provide depth in the Colts' secondary behind corners Jaylon Jones and Kenny Moore.
SEPTEMBER 10, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
JuJu Brents - Lands on IR with knee injury Brents was placed on the Colts' injured reserve Tuesday due to a knee injury.
Impact Brents will undergo a procedure for the knee injury he sustained during Sunday's 29-27 loss to Houston. Whether the 2023 second-round pick will return this season will not be known until after the surgery, though Mike Chappell of Fox 59 News Indianapolis reports that Brents is not dealing with an ACL injury, and the 24-year-old corner could return in mid-December. With Brents sidelined, Kenny Moore could step into the starting corner role opposite Jaylon Jones. Moore played all 79 defensive snaps for the Colts on Sunday and finished with five tackles (four solo).
SEPTEMBER 10, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
JuJu Brents - Headed for IR Brents (knee) is expected to be placed on injured reserve Tuesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Impact Brents' injury could be season-ending, and although Rapoport states it will be, James Boyd of The Athletic says the team won't know a timetable for his return until after he undergoes surgery. The specifics of the injury the Kansas State product suffered are also unknown at this point, although Mike Chappell of Fox 59 News Indianapolis reports it is not an ACL injury and there is a chance Brents could be back in mid-December. It's another tough blow for the promising young cornerback, who missed eight regular-season games in 2023 due to a quadriceps injury. With not much depth at the position, it's not clear where the Colts will turn, with Samuel Womack and Dallis Flowers the only other corners on the current roster other than starter Jaylon Jones and nickelback Kenny Moore.

QB Stock Market Week 2: Is Baker Mayfield actually good?
Mo Alie-Cox - Minimal role on offense Alie-Cox did not have a reception and was targeted just once in Sunday's loss to Houston.
Impact Alie-Cox got the start at tight end, but he's almost exclusively a blocking tight end these days as he went out on just seven routes among his 18 snaps on offense. Kylen Granson played more snaps (25) but also had just one target. With the Colts using a more vertical passing attack than last season, none of the Colts' tight ends may get significant targets.

Ashton Dulin - Scores TD in season opener Dulin had one reception for a 54-yard touchdown on his lone target in Sunday's loss to Houston.
Impact Dulin played on 11 of the offense's 45 snaps as he got time as the fourth receiver. He played more snaps than Anthony Gould (seven) among the reserve receivers. Dulin is unlikely to play a major role if the top three or four receivers (Josh Downs could return this week from an ankle injury) are healthy.

Packers won't place Love on IR as Willis prepares to start Sunday's game against the Colts

Green Bay Packers coach Matt LaFleur says the team doesn’t plan to put Jordan Love on injured reserve
SEPTEMBER 9, 2024 • Associated Press
Trey Sermon - Minimal involvement in Week 1 loss Sermon did not log a rushing attempt or draw a target during Sunday's 29-27 loss to the Texans.
Impact Sermon handled the No. 2 role behind Jonathan Taylor versus Houston, playing five offensive snaps while Tyler Goodson didn't take the field. No running back aside from Taylor, who rushed 16 times for 48 yards and a touchdown, factored into the game plan for Indianapolis' opener, but Sermon should mix in more frequently going forward. More opportunities could come Week 2 against a Packers defense that allowed 132 yards from scrimmage and three TDs to Saquon Barkley in Week 1.

Alec Pierce's fast start could help him fulfill the potential Colts believe he possesses

Indianapolis Colts receiver Alec Pierce spent his first two NFL seasons showing promise
SEPTEMBER 9, 2024 • Associated Press
DeForest Buckner - 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.
