Colts 53-man roster projection without Andrew Luck for first time since 2012
The Indianapolis Colts will cut their roster to 53 players by 4 p.m. ET Saturday. Here's a projection:
Andrew Luck isn't on the 53-man roster at this point of the season for the first time since he as starring at Stanford. The real question mark is at backup quarterback, as it wouldn't be surprising if the Colts try to acquire a veteran player to play behind Brissett, who went 4-11 as a starter in 2017.
Coach Frank Reich is confident that this group can finish in the top five in rushing after finishing 20th in that category last season. Wilkins missed a significant portion of the preseason injured. Mack was just 92 yards shy of rushing for 1,000 yards despite missing four games last season.
