Colts Injury Report Week 9
Nyheim Hines Missing Wednesday Practice
Nyheim Hines missed Wednesday’s practice with a concussion. He is currently in the NFL’s concussion protocol. If he cannot play on Sunday, Jordan Wilkins may start. Wilkins filled in for Hines last week in a 24-0 loss to the Patriots.
Will Fries Return to Lineup?
Chrisitan Fries missed last week's game with an illness. He was a full participant in Wednesday's practice. If Fries is able to play, he could start at left guard for the Colts.
Other Colts Injuries
Other Colts who missed practice on Wednesday were defensive end Yannick Ngakoue (back), defensive tackle DeForest Buckner (ankle), and cornerback Kenny Moore II (hip). Ngakoue and Buckner are both expected to play on Sunday. Moore's status is less certain.
Colts Facing Tough Matchup
The Colts will face a tough matchup on Sunday when they travel to Las Vegas to take on the Raiders. The Raiders are 2-5 this season, but they have a talented offense led by quarterback Derek Carr and wide receiver Davante Adams. The Colts will need to be at full strength to have a chance to win.
