Colts vs. Steelers: Week 9 inactives
By Ryan Stano
The Colts play the Steelers in just under an hour. Here are the list of the seven inactive players for this game.
The Colts have been hit by the injury bug most of this season. It got even worse on Friday, when we learned that T.Y. Hilton will miss the next three to four weeks because of a non-contact calf injury. He is one of the seven inactives for the game against Pittsburgh.
Pierre Desir is another inactive player. The starting corner will miss his second straight game because of a hamstring injury. He was questionable going into the day, but will miss another game. Surprisingly, Quincy Wilson is a healthy scratch at corner again with Desir out.
Again, this shows that the Colts are done with Wilson. He has failed no matter how many chances the Colts have given him. Based on this, it would be very surprising to see him in a Colts uniform next season. His time in Indy is just about done.
Le’Raven Clark continues to be inactive, which is good. Jonathan Williams is inactive yet again at running back. Carl Davis is inactive as he is still hurt at the defensive tackle position. Tyquan Lewis is a healthy scratch too, which is disappointing for him. He has had a rough start to his career.
None of these inactives hurt more than T.Y. Hilton. Hopefully they can compensate for his loss by getting some of the other receivers involved. They are going to have to if they want to win this game.
