Pre-Game
- This week, Colts head coach Shane Steichen stated that the Colts' starters will not play on Saturday. "Well, coming up obviously with the preseason game, the starters aren't going to play in this game," Steichen said. "Daniel (Jones) nor AR (Anthony Richardson Sr.) will play. It'll be Riley (Leonard) and (Jason) Bean. I want to get these threes going. It's their last opportunity. We're pretty banged up right now, so I want to get these guys healthy for Week 1 and get these guys going."
