Won't play against Jacksonville Walley (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.

Impact Walley tweaked his knee against the Vikings in Week 7, and he was unable to participate in any of the three Week 8 practice sessions. The good news for the Colts is that Sauce Gardner (calf) has been cleared to play Sunday, but Walley's absence means more defensive snaps in the secondary will be available for Kapena Gushiken and Kenneth Harris. Walley's next opportunity to play is Week 9 against the Cowboys on Sunday, Nov. 8.

Suffers knee injury Sunday According to head coach Shane Steichen, Walley did not return to Sunday's 16-10 loss to Minnesota due to a knee injury, Kevin Bowen of 107.5 The Fan Indianapolis reports.

Impact Walley exited the Week 7 meeting with the Vikings in the third quarter and did not return. Until there is a more definitive update on his condition, he should at least be considered questionable ahead of Sunday's game versus the Jaguars. If Walley can't suit up for that contest, Cam Taylor-Britt (groin) and Kapena Gushiken are candidates for more snaps.
