INJURIES
Josh Downs - Iffy for Week 1 Coach Shane Steichen noted Monday that Downs is "progressing well" while rehabbing his high-ankle sprain, Mike Chappell of Fox 59 News Indianapolis reports.
Impact That said, it's unclear if Downs will be able to practice Wednesday, with the wideout's status for Sunday's game against the Texans to be determined, per James Boyd of The Athletic. If Downs is unavailable for Week 1 action, look for Adonai Mitchell and Alec Pierce to see added opportunities this weekend behind top WR Michael Pittman.

Impact With Gay's Week 1 status to be determined due to his injury concern, the Colts have Spencer Shrader on their practice squad as a potential fill in against Houston. Added context regarding the situation will arrive no later than Wednesday, when the team's first injury report is posted.

Cameron McGrone - Set to miss start of 2024 McGrone (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve by the Colts on Tuesday.
Impact McGrone recorded four total tackles (three solo) with the Colts in the preseason, picking up an undisclosed injury at some point along the way. He'll now be sidelined for at least the four games of the season before being eligible to return in Week 5 versus the Jaguars on Oct. 6.

2024-25 AFC South Division odds: Texans favored; Jaguars, Colts chasing
Josh Downs - No return to practice Downs (ankle) isn't practicing Wednesday, Nate Atkins of The Indianapolis Star reports.
Impact Downs hasn't practiced since suffering a high-ankle sprain Aug. 7, which was 32 days before the Colts' season opener against Houston (Sept. 8). Coach Shane Steichen said Sunday that he's hopeful Downs will be available for the game, but the wideout's continued absences from practice suggest he's in danger of sitting out. Alec Pierce and Adonai Mitchell both had full-time roles on the first-team offense this preseason alongside No. 1 receiver Michael Pittman.
AUGUST 28, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Trey Sermon - Returns to practice Sermon (hamstring) returned to practice Wednesday, Nate Atkins of The Indianapolis Star reports.
Impact Sermon injured his hamstring Aug. 11 during the Colts' preseason opener, after reports from the first two weeks of training camp suggested he was the favorite for the No. 2 RB role. He's now one of three backs on the roster after Tuesday's cutdowns, joined by starter Jonathan Taylor and 23-year-old Tyler Goodson. As things currently stand, Sermon presumably would get most of the carries in the event of a Taylor injury, with Goodson then handling passing situations and more of the targets.
AUGUST 28, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Jonah Laulu - Waived by Indianapolis Laulu was waived by the Colts.
Impact It's a mild surprise that the Colts didn't keep their 2024 seventh-round draft pick on the roster. He's a candidate to be developed on the practice squad.
AUGUST 28, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Titus Leo - Waived by Indianapolis Leo was waived by the Colts.
Impact Leo was selected by the Colts in the sixth round of the 2023 NFL Draft, but missed the 2023 season due to a knee injury. He hurt the same knee in the preseason but was able to return to practice. He may need to prove he's fully healthy before getting another chance with a team.
AUGUST 28, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Jaylin Simpson - Waived by Indianapolis Simpson was waived by the Colts.
Impact It's a bit surprising that the Colts would give up so quickly on a 2024 fifth-round draft pick, but the team was confident in the returning secondary with JuJu Brents and Dallis Flowers both healthy. He's a candidate to sign with the practice squad.
AUGUST 28, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Chris Lammons - Released by Indianapolis Lammons was released by the Colts.
Impact Lammons missed the beginning of the Colts' camp due to foot and ankle issues but was activated from the PUP list on Aug. 5. He appeared in four regular-season games for the Colts last season, registering six tackles (four solo) and one pass defended while playing 59 snaps on defense and 55 snaps on special teams. He's a candidate for the practice squad.
AUGUST 28, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Will Mallory - Makes 53-man roster Mallory has made Indianapolis' 53-man roster.
Impact Mallory missed time early in training camp due to a sore hamstring but is healthy as the regular season begins. Mallory appeared in 12 games as a rookie last season, and the 2023 fifth-round draft pick out of Miami caught 18 of 26 targets for 207 yards. Mallory will be part of a four-man committee at tight end that also includes Kylen Granson, Mo Alie-Cox and Drew Olgetree. The Colts are likely to split targets between the foursome.

Drew Ogletree - Makes 53-man roster Ogletree has made Indianapolis' 53-man roster.
Impact With Jelani Woods (toe) out for the season on IR, Olgetree will be part of a four-man committee at tight end that also includes Kylen Granson, Mo Alie-Cox and Will Mallory. Ogletree is probably the second or third receiving option among the quartet with Alie-Cox primarily a blocking tight end.

Samson Ebukam - On IR with possibility to return Ebukam (Achilles) was placed on injured reserve with a designation to return.
Impact Ebukam sustained a torn Achilles' tendon during a July 28 practice. It seems very unlikely he'll be able to return this year, but the Colts are leaving the door open for the possibility he can be activated late in the season.

Juwann Winfree - Set to miss 2024 season Winfree (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve by the Colts on Tuesday, JJ Stankevitz of the team's official website reports.
Impact Winfree was not designated to return, meaning that he'll spend the entirety of the 2024 season on IR unless he reaches an injury settlement with Indianapolis. The wide receiver is dealing with an unspecified injury and it's unclear when he'd be able to return to action.
AUGUST 27, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Eric Tomlinson - Cut loose by Indianapolis The Colts released Tomlinson on Tuesday, JJ Stankevitz of the team's official site reports.
Impact Tomlinson spent time on both the Ravens' and Colts' practice squads in 2023, though he was not elevated for a game. He stuck around with Indianapolis on a reserve/future contract in January in the hopes of making the 53-man roster as a depth tight end. Across three preseason games, Tomlinson accumulated two catches on four targets for 24 yards. He could be invited to stick around in Indianapolis on the practice squad, or he could look to a join a different team in need of tight end depth.
