Despite loss, Kansas City Chiefs remain atop Nick Wright's NFL Tiers for Week 3
There is controversy at the top of Nick Wright's NFL tiers. Here's a hint: A one-loss squad is still on top.SEPTEMBER 22, 2021

Parris Campbell - Limited to start week Campbell (abdomen) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
Impact Campbell was the team's No. 3 receiver Week 1 before sitting out the Week 2 loss to the Rams with an abdominal injury. He could make it back this weekend for a favorable matchup against the struggling Tennessee defense, but potentially with Jacob Eason or Brett Hundley starting at quarterback for the Colts rather than Carson Wentz (ankles).

Zach Pascal - Misses practice with illness Pascal missed Wednesday's practice due to an illness.
Impact The good news is that Pascal wasn't placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list. Assuming that doesn't change, he'll have a good chance to return for Sunday's game against the Titans, looking to build on a strong start to the season (three TDs on 11 targets in two games). It is possible Pascal has to catch passes from backup QB Jacob Eason instead of banged-up starter Carson Wentz (ankles).

Jacob Eason - Likely next man up Eason is the favorite to start Sunday's game against the Titans if Carson Wentz (ankle) is unable to suit up, Kevin Bowen of 107.5 The Fan Indianapolis reports.
Impact Coach Frank Reich declined to confirm Wednesday whether Eason or practice squad resident Brett Hundley would start if Wentz, who is nursing sprains in both ankles, is ultimately ruled out Week 3. Hundley (nine career starts) boasts more experience than Eason, who looked overwhelmed in emergency duty against the Rams last week, but Bowen notes that the 2020 fourth-round pick is still the likely favorite for a spot start, if necessary.

Colts prepare for Titans with uncertainty at quarterback
Carson Wentz has two sprained ankles and the Indianapolis Colts have only two other quarterbacks healthy enough to play Sunday at TennesseeSEPTEMBER 22, 2021 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Parris Campbell - At practice Wednesday Campbell (abdomen) was present for practice Wednesday, Kevin Bowen of 107.5 The Fan Indianapolis reports.
Impact After being added to the Colts' Week 2 injury report this past Friday, Campbell was inactive for Sunday's loss to the Rams. The wideout's presence on the field Wednesday, however, suggests that he could return to action this weekend against the Titans. Wednesday's injury report will reveal his official level of practice participation.

Carson Wentz - Iffy for Week 3 Wentz (ankles) won't practice Wednesday, Mike Wells of ESPN.com reports.
Impact The QB noted Wednesday that both of his ankles are still sore, with the right one being of greater concern. Though there's hope that Wentz's injured ankles could respond to treatment in the next few days, coach Frank Reich suggested that the team has to approach things as though the veteran QB won't be available this weekend, per Kevin Bowen of 107.5 The Fan Indianapolis. As long as Wentz is sidelined, Jacob Eason will handle added practice reps, while Brett Hundley is a candidate to be elevated from the Colts' practice squad

Khari Willis - Reels in INT Willis recorded seven solo tackles, a pass breakup and an interception in Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Rams.
Impact This is Willis' third interception since the start of the 2020 season. The 2019 fourth-round pick is an every-snap player now, and he could have significant IDP upside as long as he stays healthy. He missed two games in each of his first two NFL seasons.
SEPTEMBER 22, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Darius Leonard - Notches seven tackles Leonard posted seven tackles (four solo) and a pass breakup in Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Rams.
Impact Leonard is off to a slow start with 12 tackles, a pass breakup and no sacks through two games. We should expect him to turn things around soon, as he recorded at least 121 tackles through each of his first three seasons. On a positive note, Leonard shook off a groin injury and an illness to play Sunday and didn't appear any worse for the wear. He may have plenty of opportunity against the Titans in Week 3, as Derrick Henry carried 35 times last week.
SEPTEMBER 22, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
T.J. Carrie - Registers eight stops Carrie posted eight tackles (seven solo) in Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Rams.
Impact Carrie logged 69 percent of the defensive snaps for a second straight week, and he tied Kenny Moore for the team lead in tackles Sunday. His time in the spotlight may be short-lived, as he could move to a reserve role once Xavier Rhodes (calf) returns to action.
