INJURIES

Alec Pierce - Hauls in another deep pass Pierce caught one of two targets for 44 yards in Sunday's 21-16 win over the Bears.
Impact Despite hauling in only one pass, Pierce led the Colts in receiving yards. The reception was already his third of the season of 40-plus yards, tying his career high, but his target volume took a big hit Sunday with Josh Downs (ankle) back in the lineup. Pierce could have trouble getting open deep in Week 4 against a stingy Steelers secondary.

Josh Downs - Three catches in season debut Downs caught three of five targets for 22 yards in Sunday's 21-16 win over the Bears.
Impact Making his 2024 debut after recovering from an ankle injury, Downs tied Michael Pittman for the team led in targets but didn't net much yardage, as Anthony Richardson continues to struggle with his accuracy on shorter routes. Downs' volume was at least encouraging, but he faces a tough test in Week 4 against the Steelers.
SEPTEMBER 22 • ROTOWIRE
Michael Pittman Jr. - Four grabs against Chicago Pittman caught four of five targets for 36 yards in Sunday's 21-16 win over the Bears.
Impact The wideout led the Colts in catches, but once again his volume didn't lead to much production as Anthony Richardson continues to misfire on shorter passes. Pittman has 11 receptions on 20 targets through three games, but they've produced only 88 yards and zero TDs. He'll have a hard time breaking out in Week 4 against the Steelers.
SEPTEMBER 22 • ROTOWIRE
Jonathan Taylor - Finds end zone twice in win Taylor carried the ball 23 times for 110 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 21-16 win over the Bears. He also caught one of two targets for 25 yards.
Impact The fifth-year running back might have had a third score, but he got a breather after gaining a total of 46 yards on back-to-back plays in the third quarter and watched Trey Sermon finish off the drive with a one-yard TD run. Taylor is the clear focal point of the Colts' offense while Anthony Richardson struggles to move the ball consistently through the air, and that role has resulted in consecutive 100-yard rushing efforts and three touchdowns through three games. Taylor will likely be busy again in a tough Week 4 matchup against the Steelers.
SEPTEMBER 22 • ROTOWIRE
Anthony Richardson - Passing struggles continue in win Richardson completed 10 of 20 passes for 167 yards and two interceptions while adding 24 rushing yards on eight carries in Sunday's 21-16 win over the Bears.
Impact Once again, the second-year quarterback launched some deep balls for big gains -- his longest was a 44-yard completion to Alec Pierce -- but he had trouble completing shorter passes and committed multiple turnovers for the second straight game, including an INT in the second quarter from the Chicago three-yard line. Richardson has also seemingly been reluctant to run when opportunities presented themselves, instead keeping his focus downfield on his receivers. Without that rushing floor, his fantasy value has been almost non-existent, and he has a 3:6 TD:INT through three games. Richardson faces a tough matchup in Week 4 against the Steelers.
SEPTEMBER 22 • ROTOWIRE
Kwity Paye - Suffes injuy during game Paye injured his quadriceps during Sunday's 21-16 win over the Bears, Joel A. Erickson of The Indianapolis Star reports.
Impact Paye told Erickson he would get scans, assumingly an MRI, after the game. It's not clear if this is related to the hamstring injury he was dealing with previously or not. More clarity on his status moving forward should come later in the week ahead of next Sunday's game against the Steelers.
SEPTEMBER 22 • ROTOWIRE
Matt Gay - No field goals Gay made all three of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 21-16 win over the Bears.
Impact Gay spent the week dealing with a quadriceps injury but was still able to handle kicking duties for the Colts in Week 3. The Utah product wasn't needed often though, and didn't have the opportunity to attempt a field goal. Next week Gay and the Colts will host the Steelers.

2024 NFL Week 3 odds, lines, spreads for all 16 games
Laiatu Latu - Good to go for Week 3 Latu (hip) is active for Sunday's game against the Bears.
Impact Latu opened the week with back-to-back DNPs, but he earned a questionable tag after practicing in a limited capacity Friday. The rookie first-round pick will suit up for Sunday's game and provide rotational depth at defensive end behind starters Kwity Paye and Tyquan Lewis.
SEPTEMBER 22 • ROTOWIRE
Michael Pittman Jr. - Active versus Chicago Pittman (back/calf) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Bears.
Impact Though Pittman was listed as questionable for the contest after being held out of Friday's practice with listed back and calf issues, coach Shane Steichen indicated that the wideout should be able to play Sunday. With his active status confirmed, Pittman is in line to continue to work as a key target for QB Anthony Richardson, in the absence of any limitations or in-game setbacks. Over his first two contests, Pittman -- who recorded 109 catches in 16 regular-season outings in 2023 -- has caught seven of his team-high 15 targets for 52 yards. Also in the Colts' Week 3 WR mix are Josh Downs, who is back in action after a two-game absence, as well as Alec Pierce and Adonai Mitchell.
SEPTEMBER 22 • ROTOWIRE
Michael Pittman Jr. - Expected to suit up Sunday Pittman (back/calf) is likely to play in Sunday's Week 3 clash against the Bears, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Impact Pittman sat out Friday's practice due to injuries to his back and calf, and he was deemed questionable on the Colts' final injury report of the week. However, coach Shane Steichen said he believed the wideout would be able to suit up for Sunday's contest, and that appears to be coming to pass. Pittman's status will be confirmed about 90 minutes prior to Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff.

Laiatu Latu - Gets questionable tag Latu (hip) was a limited participant in Friday's practice and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bears.
Impact Latu sustained a hip injury in the Colts' Week 2 loss against the Packers. The rookie first-round pick logged back-to-back DNPs to start the week, but he was able to practice in a limited capacity Friday to give himself a shot at suiting up Sunday. If Latu cannot play, Dayo Odeyingbo would serve as the Colts' top rotational defensive end behind starters Kwity Paye and Tyquan Lewis.

Colts vs. Bears 2024 Prediction, Odds, Picks - Sep 22
Matt Gay - Ready for Week 3 Gay (quadriceps) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's contest against the Bears.
Impact After sitting out Week 1 due to still being in recovery mode from sports hernia surgery, Gay made his season debut this past Sunday in Green Bay, making his only point-after try but just one of two field-goal attempts. He then sat out Wednesday's practice with a quad injury, only to cap the week with back-to-back full sessions. Gay thus is set to play versus a Chicago team that sits in a tie for sixth in the NFL in terms of points against at 18.0 per game.
SEPTEMBER 20 • ROTOWIRE
Josh Downs - Cleared to play vs. Bears Downs (ankle) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Bears.
Impact Downs participated without limitations in all three of Indianapolis' practices this week, setting the stage for the wide receiver to make his season debut. Michael Pittman (back/calf) is questionable, but Downs' return could lead to decreased playing time for rookie Adonai Mitchell, as Alec Pierce has probably cemented his spot in three-receiver sets with 181 receiving yards and two touchdowns through two games. Downs finished second to Pittman (1,152) with 771 receiving yards last season.
SEPTEMBER 20 • ROTOWIRE
Michael Pittman Jr. - Questionable for Week 3 Pittman (back/calf) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bears.
Impact The Colts tacked on Pittman to their final Week 3 practice report with back and calf injuries, which kept him out of drills Friday. Still, coach Shane Steichen told Nate Atkins of The Indianapolis Star that Pittman should be able to play Sunday, something that'll be confirmed about 90 minutes before a 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff. Assuming he's active, Pittman will be welcoming back fellow wide receiver Josh Downs (ankle) to the lineup. which may eat into the former's target share from quarterback Anthony Richardson.

Impact Pittman was held out of Friday's practice, per James Boyd of The Athletic, and now the reason for his non-participation has been clarified. Friday's final injury report will reveal whether Pittman heads into the weekend with a Week 3 injury designation.
SEPTEMBER 20 • ROTOWIRE
Michael Pittman Jr. - Not practicing Friday Pittman (undisclosed) isn't participating in Friday's practice, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.
Impact Per, Nate Atkins of The Indianapolis Star, Pittman -- who practiced fully Wednesday and Thursday -- was present for Friday's session. There's a chance that the Colts are giving the wideout a rest day, with further context regarding his Week 3 status set to arrive once the team's injury report is posted.

Matt Gay - Should be good to go Sunday Gay (quadriceps) was a full participant during practice Thursday, Nate Atkins of The Indianapolis Star reports.
Impact Gay didn't take the field Wednesday, so his jump to a full session Thursday is an encouraging sign that suggests he'll be handling kicking duties for the Colts on Sunday when they host the Bears.
