The Indianapolis Colts (3-3) and Miami Dolphins (2-3) continue their work toward their AFC showdown on Sunday as both teams look to stack a second consecutive win.

The Colts are expected to welcome back quarterback Anthony Richardson on Sunday as long as he doesn't suffer any setbacks with his oblique injury. Overall, the injury report brought progress for most players with the exception of leading receiver Alec Pierce popping up with a shoulder injury.

Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa remains on Injured Reserve with a concussion. This is the last week of the four-game stretch that he must stay inactive. Among players on the active roster, Miami is in pretty good shape, health-wise.

Here is the complete injury report for both teams.

COLTS

WEDNESDAY

  • Did Not Participate — WR Josh Downs (toe), C Ryan Kelly (calf), CB Chris Lammons (ankle), DE Dayo Odeyingbo (hamstring), WR Michael Pittman Jr. (back), RB Trey Sermon (knee), OT Braden Smith (knee), LB E.J. Speed (knee), RB Jonathan Taylor (ankle)
  • Full Participant — QB Anthony Richardson (oblique)

THURSDAY

  • Did Not Participate — CB Chris Lammons (ankle), WR Alec Pierce (shoulder)
  • Limited Participant — WR Josh Downs (toe), C Ryan Kelly (calf), DE Dayo Odeyingbo (hamstring), RB Trey Sermon (knee), LB E.J. Speed (knee), RB Jonathan Taylor (ankle)
  • Full Participant — WR Michael Pittman Jr. (back), QB Anthony Richardson (oblique), OT Braden Smith (knee),

This was overall a good injury report for the Colts, as eight of 11 players either improved their workload or remained a full participant.

Taylor, who has not practiced since leaving the Colts' Week 4 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers, remains sidelined. His status for Sunday does not look promising.
