The high ankle sprain that has been bothering Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor will keep him out of the lineup for Week 7.
Taylor has not played since Week 4 against the Pittsburgh Steelers and has yet to return to the practice field.
“Once they said high ankle, I knew high ankles are usually four to six (weeks), but you know, me, attacking different rehabs and injuries, I was like, ‘There’s no way,'” Taylor said Thursday. “I’ve just got to do everything in my power to keep chopping that down every single day.”
Meanwhile, quarterback Anthony Richardson (oblique) will start after missing the last two games.
Cardinals’ Harrison Jr. remains in concussion protocol
Marvin Harrison Jr. was a limited participant in Thursday’s practice, but the Arizona Cardinals wide receiver is still in concussion protocol. Arizona takes on the Los Angeles Chargers on Monday night.
Harrison suffered a concussion in Week 6 and wore a non-contact jersey in practice. Head coach Jonathan Gannon said it was “really encouraging” to see the rookie back on the field.
Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray targeted Harrison on a pass over the middle in the second quarter of their 34-13 loss to the Green Bay Packers. Packers cornerback Jaire Alexander broke up the pass and knocked Harrison to the turf. As Harrison fell, the crown of his helmet hit linebacker Isaiah McDuffie in the thigh, sending his head snapping backward.
Harrison got up after the hit, clearly dazed. He immediately fell back to the turf.
He went to the sideline medical tent and then left for the locker room with athletic trainers. The Cardinals announced before halftime that he was being evaluated for a concussion and ruled him out before the start of the third quarter.
Nabers cleared to return for Giants
The New York Giants welcomed wide receiver Malik Nabers back to practice on Thursday. The rookie wideout was a full participant and visited an independent neurological consultant afterward, who cleared him from concussion protocol.
Nabers suffered a concussion during the Giants’ Week 4 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. He’s missed the past two games but looks set to return for Sunday’s game against the Philadelphia Eagles.
Browns’ Stefanski ‘expects’ Chubb to play Week 7
Nick Chubb is listed as questionable for the Cleveland Browns’ game against the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday, but head coach Kevin Stefanski said he expects the running back to play.
Chubb has not played since September 2023 when he suffered a serious knee injury. He underwent a medial capsule, meniscus and MCL surgery, and two months later, in November, doctors went in to repair his ACL. He has been practicing the past three weeks.
Stefanski said the team has a plan for how they will utilize Chubb in his first game back.
“I’m ready to get out there with my team, ready to do whatever I can,” Chubb said Wednesday. “I feel good.”
Running back Jerome Ford will miss the Bengals game with a hamstring injury.
Here’s the rest of the Week 7 injury report.
