Colts Don't Make Any Practice Squad Elevations Ahead of Game vs Texans
Indianapolis Colts Make No Practice Squad Elevations Ahead of Texans Matchup
The Indianapolis Colts have decided not to elevate any players from their practice squad ahead of their Week 18 matchup against the Houston Texans. This decision comes as a surprise to many, as the Colts are currently dealing with several injuries to key players.
The Colts are without starting quarterback Matt Ryan, who is dealing with an ankle injury. They are also without several key defensive players, including cornerback Kenny Moore II and linebacker Darius Leonard. Despite these injuries, the Colts have opted not to elevate any players from their practice squad.
Colts' Decision Raises Questions About Depth
The Colts' decision not to elevate any players from their practice squad raises questions about the team's depth. The Colts are already thin at several positions, and the injuries to Ryan and Leonard have only made the situation worse. It is unclear how the Colts will be able to fill these holes in their lineup against the Texans.
The Colts' decision is also surprising because the Texans are a beatable opponent. The Texans are currently 1-15-1 and have one of the worst records in the NFL. The Colts should be able to win this game even if they are without some of their key players.
Colts Could Be Taking a Risk
The Colts' decision not to elevate any players from their practice squad could come back to haunt them. If the Colts lose to the Texans, it will be a major embarrassment. It will also raise questions about the team's coaching staff and front office.
The Colts need to win this game to keep their playoff hopes alive. They are currently 4-11-1 and need to win their final two games to have a chance at making the playoffs. The Colts' decision not to elevate any players from their practice squad is a risky one, but it is one that they hope will pay off.
