The Indianapolis Colts released their inactive players for tonight against the Carolina Panthers with no significant surprises: WR Phillip Dorsett, OT Denzelle Good, S Winston Guy, C Khaled Holmes, ILB Nate Irving, DT Zach Kerr, and RB Josh Robinson.
Khaled Holmes is the only starting player on the list, and he was ruled out earlier this past weekend.

Winston Guy (shoulder) and Nate Irving (knee) were listed on this week’s injury report as either “out” or “doubtful”, having not practiced all week because of injuries. Wide receiver Phillip Dorsett is rehabilitating from a fractured fibula and should be out at least 4-6 weeks recovering.
Otherwise, Denzelle Good, Zach Kerr, and Josh Robinson appear to be healthy scratches, as none of the aforementioned players were listed on this week’s injury report. With Robinson inactive, it looks as though the Colts are more comfortable at this time with Zurlon Tipton as the 3rd running back, likely because of his special teams ability.
Good has been a healthy scratch pretty much all season, while Zach Kerr has fallen behind fellow defensive lineman Billy Winn and T.Y. McGill among Colts backups.
All-in-all, the Colts appear to be fairly healthy for this time of year with only one starting player out for tonight’s game.
