The Indianapolis Colts could easily be added to the list of the undefeated teams in the league if it were not for an overtime loss in Week 1 to the Los Angeles Chargers. Thanks to some big missed field goals and extra point attempts from Adam Vinatieri, who will be inducted into the Hall of Fame without a doubt, the Chargers were able to steal the win.
As Jacoby Brissett has continued to play well, with seven touchdowns compared to just one interception so far this season, he might be without star wide out T.Y. Hilton, as the receiver missed practice Wednesday after suffering a quad injury during Sunday's matchup against the Atlanta Falcons.
In addition to Hilton, second-year player and All-Pro linebacker Darius Leonard missed practice Wednesday as well due to a concussion he suffered in Week 2.
As the Colts prepare to host the Oakland Raiders this Sunday, they will hope to at least have Hilton back, as he has stated that although not practicing Wednesday, his quad does in fact feel better than it did Sunday which is a good sign. As for Leonard, his status is more up in the air and with how seriously the league is approaching concussions, we will have no idea if Leonard will be back in time for this weeks matchup.
While being two of the teams most important players, the Colts have been playing well enough that Hilton and Leonard might not be needed to take down a Raiders team that is in a state of flux.
