The Indianapolis Colts began Week 6 in another holding pattern. Starting quarterback Anthony Richardson did limited work at Wednesday's practice and 2021 NFL rushing champion Jonathan Taylor sat out. Last week, in the same scenario, both sat out. But they're not the only concerns on an injury list that is getting longer by the week.

While Richardson went through pregame warmups before he was deactivated, Taylor didn’t practice at all last week and was ruled out Friday. But after his limited work last week, the Colts decided it would be too risky for Richardson to play because his injured right hip has hampered both his running and throwing.
The stakes are already high for Indy, which is two games behind defending AFC South champion Houston and is already 0-2 in division play after losing to the Texans in the opener and at previously winless Jacksonville last week. The Colts also have lost three straight division games, going back to a playoff-eliminating loss in the 2023 regular-season finale, and are a meager 4-9-1 against the AFC South since 2022.
Pro Bowl cornerback Kenny Moore II has missed two straight games with a bad hip and starting defensive end Kwity Paye missed the Jaguars game with an injured quadricep. More and Paye both did limited work Wednesday.
