Brents (groin) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Jaguars, James Boyd of The Athletic reports. Brents injured his groin during a Colts' punt return in the first quarter. Sunday's contest is Brents' first game back since tearing his MCL and meniscus in Week 1 against the Texans. Samuel Womack and Kenny Moore are candidate to fill in at outside corner opposite starter Jaylon Jones for as long as Brents is sidelined.
Brents (knee) was activated off IR on Saturday and doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's matchup versus Jacksonville. Brents had been on injured reserve since Sept. 10 after suffering a knee injury in Week 1 against Houston. The second-year cornerback resumed practicing Dec. 18, and though the Colts are out of playoff contention, he'll be able to take the field for the team's season finale against the Jaguars. Samuel Womack has worked as a starter most of the campaign with Brents sidelined, but Womack could yield some defensive snaps Sunday to the returning Brents.
Brents (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Jaguars after logging a full practice Friday. Brents was the starting outside corner in Week 1 against the Texans, but he suffered a torn MCL and meniscus in his knee during that game. The injury has forced him to be sidelined for the Colts' last 15 games, but he told reporters after Friday's practice that his goal since the injury was to return this season and that he hopes to play in Sunday's regular-season finale, per Joel Erickson of the Indianapolis Star. The Colts would have to activate Brents off injured reserve in order for the 2023 second-round pick to play Sunday.
Brents (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Giants. Brents was a full practice participant all week as he works his way back from an MCL injury he suffered in the Colts' regular-season opener against the Texans. However, the 2023 second-round pick will remain on IR, and it's unclear whether he'll be activated for the Colts' regular-season finale against the Jaguars.
Brents (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Giants after logging a full practice Friday, JJ Stankevitz of the Colts' official site reports. Brents is in the final stages of his recovery from an MCL injury, which caused him to go on injured reserve Sept. 10. He was a full participant in practice all week, but he'll need to be activated off IR in order to play Sunday. Brents has played in 10 regular-season games since being selected by Indianapolis in the second round of the 2023 NFL Draft.
Brents (knee) won't be activated from IR on Saturday and has been downgraded to out for Sunday's tilt against the Titans. Brents will remain on IR -- where's he's been since Sept. 10 -- for another week. The second-year cornerback did manage to log a trio of limited practices this week after being designated to return Wednesday, so it's still possible he will get back on the field before the end of the regular season. Brents' next opportunity to play will come Sunday, Dec. 29 versus the Giants.
Brents (knee) was a limited participant in Friday's practice and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Titans. Brents was placed on injured reserve in mid-September after suffering an MCL injury against the Texans in Week 1. The injury was severe enough to require surgery, but he was able to progress in his recovery enough to return to practice Wednesday. If Brents isn't activated off IR ahead of Sunday's AFC South clash, his next opportunity to play will be Week 17 against the Giants on Sunday, Dec. 29.
Colts head coach Shane Steichen announced Wednesday that Brents (knee) is being designated to return from injured reserve. Brents' 21-day practice window will officially open, in which span he can be activated to the 53-man roster at any time. That makes the 2023 second-round pick eligible to retake the field as early as Sunday's game against the Titans, if Indianapolis makes the corresponding transaction. Brents is working his way back from a knee injury that's kept him sidelined since he suffered it in the Colts' regular-season opener.
Colts head coach Shane Steichen said Wednesday the team is not yet designating Brents (knee) to return from IR, James Boyd of The Athletic reports. Brents, who was placed on IR after injuring his knee during Indianapolis' regular-season opener, has technically been eligible to resume practicing since early October. It doesn't appear as though the second-year pro has a significant chance of returning for Sunday's road matchup against the Broncos, though, which will leave him with just three more opportunities to get back on the field before the conclusion of the regular season.
