The Indianapolis Colts coaches will have their eyes on these battles against the Denver Broncos.
At the time of writing this, head coach Shane Steichen has yet to announce how long the starters will play this week. But if Steichen follows what he did last season, the Colts' starters will play 2-3 series, or around a quarter and a half.

Both have split reps with the first-team offense and have had their fair share of opportunities to show what they bring to the table. Pierce has had a couple of days where he has shined.
The Colts coaching staff feels the battle between Pierce and Mitchell is very close. How each player performs in the preseason may help determine who sees the lion's share of the snaps in the regular season, and ultimately wins the competition. While both have received some reps with the starting defense, Thomas has been the primary backup to Cross. Harrison has spent most of his time at strong safety behind, Sunday presents a chance for Cross, Thomas, or Harrison to stand out and gain an edge in the position battle.
