Indianapolis Colts release Week 5 depth chart
The Indianapolis Colts, currently second in the AFC South at 2-2, are set to take on the 0-4 Jacksonville Jaguars, a division rival with whom they have a troubling history. It's been 10 years since the Colts last defeated the Jaguars in Jacksonville, and the Colts are anxious to not only break that record, but to prove that they can be considered playoff contenders alongside the Houston Texans.
However, the Jaguars are anxious, too. While they have yet to notch a win, they haven't been pushovers, either. They've remained competitive in every game except their embarrassing Monday Night Football blowout against the Buffalo Bills. The Jaguars have a lot of problems, but they could still be a threat to the Colts.
The Colts are also missing numerous defenders, and potentially might be taking the field without quarterback Anthony Richardson and running back Jonathan Taylor, too. The Colts have also struggled with their kicker, Matt Gay, who has missed several field goals so far this season. In a close game, that can be the difference between victory and defeat. Altogether, the Week 5 matchup will likely be much more competitive than Colts fans would like - and head coach Shane Steichen would be wise not to underestimate the Jags.
