Indianapolis Colts quarterbacks Daniel Jones and Anthony Richardson Sr. will not play in the team's final preseason game on Saturday against the Cincinnati Bengals, according to Jake Arthur of Sports Illustrated. Riley Leonard and Jason Bean will be the team's signal-callers in the preseason finale. Jones was named Indianapolis' Week 1 starter on Tuesday, but it's clear that the team is still prioritizing Richardson Sr.'s health by holding him out of exhibition action. The third-year quarterback has missed a significant amount of time due to injuries so far in his career, and has already suffered both shoulder and finger injuries since the start of the OTAs in 2025.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Josh Downs (hamstring) was held out of practice again on Thursday, per James Boyd of The Athletic. Downs exited the team's joint practice with the Green Bay Packers last Thursday with a left hamstring injury and has not practiced since. The 24-year-old is one of the better slot and short-area receivers in the NFL, so his presence on the field is crucial for Colts quarterback Daniel Jones. If Downs were to miss time, it would likely benefit the target volume for wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. and rookie tight end Tyler Warren. Assuming Downs' availability for the start of the regular season is not under threat, he profiles as a WR4 with a fairly safe floor, particularly in PPR-scoring formats.
