There wasn’t much surprise on the inactive lists released by the Jacksonville Jaguars and Indianapolis Colts ahead of a Week 6 matchup.
On Saturday, the Jaguars downgraded wide receiver Marvin Jones Jr. and defensive lineman Folorunso Fatukasi to out. The team’s three questionable players — defensive tackle DaVon Hamilton, wide receiver Zay Jones, and linebacker Foye Oluokun — are all set to play Sunday.

The Colts ruled out linebacker Shaquille Leonard and defensive end Kwity Paye on Friday, then downgraded running backs Jonathan Allen and Nyheim Hines to out on Saturday.
On Sunday, the Colts announced three more players — including former Jaguars quarterback Nick Foles — are inactive.

Foles is still listed as the second quarterback on the Colts’ depth chart ahead of 2021 sixth-round pick Sam Ehlinger. The decision to make the latter active rather than Foles indicates either that there’s been a change to the depth chart or the Colts want Ehlinger available for his rushing ability.
Ehlinger appeared in three games last season, but never threw a pass. He rushed three times for nine yards.
