INDIANAPOLIS — The Indianapolis Colts on Thursday travel to Gillette Stadium to take on the New England Patriots for their 2018 Week 5 matchup — and, accordingly, it's time to look at the team's unofficial depth chart for the game.
Here is a look at the Colts' unofficial depth chart for the Patriots game, with some notes for each unit:
OFFENSE:
— WR: Ryan Grant, Zach Pascal, Marcus Johnson
— LT: Anthony Castonzo, Le'Raven Clark
— LG: Quenton Nelson, Mark Glowinski
— C: Ryan Kelly
— RG: Matt Slauson, Braden Smith
— RT: Denzelle Good
— TE: Jack Doyle, Ryan Hewitt
— WR: T.Y. Hilton, Chester Rogers
— QB: Andrew Luck, Jacoby Brissett
— TE: Eric Ebron, Mo Alie-Cox
— RB: Marlon Mack, Jordan Wilkins, Nyheim Hines, Jeremy McNichols
Notes: Joe Haeg being placed on injured reserve causes movement at a couple different spots. Haeg was listed as the No. 1 right tackle to start the season, and now Denzelle Good stands alone at that spot. Haeg was also listed as the backup center, and now Ryan Kelly stands alone there. Veteran Matt Slauson, the starting right guard, does have plenty of prior experience at the center position, and perhaps could be an emergency option there if needed. Other changes from last week were related to some roster moves: Mo Alie-Cox, who made his NFL debut on Sunday, is now listed behind Eric Ebron at the second tight end spot, replacing Erik Swoope, who was waived. Jeremy McNichols, who also made his Colts debut on Sunday, is now listed as the fourth running back.
