Riley Leonard Will Practice This Week, Up in the Air for Week 15
Indianapolis Colts head coach Shane Steichen said on Wednesday that rookie quarterback Riley Leonard (knee), who has a Grade 1 PCL sprain, will practice this week, but his status for the Week 15 game on Sunday against the hosting Seattle Seahawks is up in the air, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. "We'll see," Steichen said on Leonard's status. Daniel Jones (Achilles) is done for the year, and Anthony Richardson Sr. (eye) remains on Injured Reserve, so the Colts went out and signed 44-year-old Philip Rivers to their practice squad this week. If Leonard is unable to play in Seattle this weekend, it's very possible that Rivers will get the start in his first NFL action since the 2020 season. PCL sprains typically sideline players for multiple weeks, so it would be a bit of a surprise if Leonard made the start for Indy in Seattle. Brett Rypien is the only other QB on the Colts' roster at the moment. The 23-year-old Leonard went 18-for-29 passing for 145 yards and an interception while also running in a TD in place of Jones in last week's loss to the Jaguars.
