Colts Cornerback Room Decimated After Two In-Game Injuries

The losses leave Indianapolis with minimal experienced depth and force emergency lineup choices before the team’s trip to Jacksonville.

Overview

  • Justin Walley left the Vikings game with a knee injury and Cameron Taylor‑Britt exited with a groin issue, further draining the Colts’ cornerback group.
  • With those exits, Indianapolis finished the game using practice‑squad elevation Kenneth Harris on the outside and special teamer Kapena Gushiken at nickel.
  • Sauce Gardner remains listed week‑to‑week after a recent calf strain and said an MRI showed the injury was in a different part of the muscle than last season’s strain.
  • The Colts have virtually no remaining healthy, experienced cornerbacks on the roster and only second‑year Johnathan Edwards on the practice squad.
  • The injuries heighten pressure on roster moves and game planning for the upcoming Jacksonville trip and could force short‑term elevations or signings to fill the position.
