Colts, Bears Announce Inactives Ahead of Sunday's Matchup: Good to Go

The Indianapolis Colts (0-2) are nearly set to take the stage as they host the Chicago Bears (1-1) at Lucas Oil Stadium on Sunday.

The Colts' health is improving on the injury report, only listing rookie defensive end Laiatu Latu (hip) and wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. (back, calf) as questionable, with nobody out. Both players were cleared to play.

The Bears listed starting right guard Nate Davis (groin) as questionable (he's active) but ruled out wide receiver Keenan Allen (heel, personal), Khari Blasingame (hand, knee), and defensive tackle Zacch Pickens (groin) as questionable.

Earlier this week, the Colts added star defensive tackle DeForest Buckner (ankle) to Injured Reserve, while the Bears did the same with backup running back Travis Homer (finger).

Here are both teams' lists of inactive players:

DE Genard Avery
IOL Tanor Bortolini
QB Sam Ehlinger (Emergency Third QB)
OT Blake Freeland
TE Will Mallory

The Colts didn't hold anyone out due to injury, so their five players are all healthy scratches. We'll just need to keep an eye on either of Pittman or Latu being on limited snaps.

WR Velus Jones Jr.
DT Zacch Pickens (groin)
DL Dominique Robinson
LB Noah Sewell

The biggest inactive of note for Chicago is Allen, one of the Bears' top receivers, who will miss his second consecutive game. The Bears have yet to find a grasp on their passing game, so Allen's absence certainly doesn't help.
