Following Friday’s practice, the Indianapolis Colts released their final injury report of the week, which includes two injury designations.
Let’s take a closer look at what you need to know heading into Sunday’s game:

– As expected, left tackle Bernhard Raimann (knee) has been ruled out. He has been sidelined since exiting the Colts’ Week 10 matchup with the Buffalo Bills and did not practice at all this week. Once again, head coach Shane Steichen called Raimann week to week, and the fact that he hasn’t been placed on injured reserve is perhaps a sign that the team feels he could return sooner than later. Without Raimann, rookie Matt Goncalves is in line to make his third start of the season.
– Defensive end Tyquan Lewis (elbow) is questionable. He was designated to return from injured reserve earlier in the week and was a full participant in all three practices. Obviously, the sample size is worth noting given that Lewis has been out since Week 4, but he still ranks among the best out of all defensive ends this season in PFF’s run-stop rate metric–an area where the Colts’ defense could use a boost.
Of note, since Lewis is still on injured reserve, if he’s going to be available, he will have to be added back to the 53-man roster on a Saturday and a corresponding cut will have to be made.
