- Keenan Allen developed a groin injury and was ruled out for the Colts' game against the Washington Commanders, having not practiced Friday.
- Indianapolis Colts lost their second-leading receiver, further depleting a WR group already missing top wideout Alec Pierce due to a heel injury.
- Alec Pierce remains on injured reserve and must miss at least three more games before becoming eligible to return, extending the team's WR shortage.
- Indianapolis Colts promoted veteran Nick Westbrook-Ikhine from the practice squad ahead of Sunday’s game to help offset Allen’s absence.
- Ashton Dulin was a full participant in Friday’s practice in London and could return from a two-week ankle injury that previously sidelined him.
Why it matters: The Colts now face a critical depth test at wide receiver with both Keenan Allen and Alec Pierce out, reducing their healthy options for a London road game. With only a few proven receivers available, the offense risks becoming easier to defend, especially if promoted or returning players aren't fully integrated.
