Game News
Most rushing TDs in a single season (franchise history): T1. Lenny Moore (1964) - 16 T1. Jonathan Taylor (2021) - 16 pic.twitter.com/J7Bgzqv5vj
Get familiar with the name Ashton Dulin. 🤯 #ProBowlVote x @AshtonDulin 📺 CBS pic.twitter.com/DUboUUoiJi
Coming out of the second half having just scored a touchdown to Ashton Dulin to cap off the first half, the Indianapolis Colts got in the end zone again with running back Jonathan Taylor against the Houston Texans in Week 13.
On a nine-play, 75-yard drive, the Colts got some big plays from Michael Pittman Jr. and Nyheim Hines. Taylor was there to push the pile near the end zone and walked into his second score of the day with a three-yard touchdown.
This put the Colts up 21-0 early in the third quarter
First play from scrimmage: a pick from Kenny Moore. What a snag. The league leader in takeaways is gonna get another.
Colts DE Al-Quadin Muhammad came has two sacks today, giving him 5.0 on the season. The first sack of the game was significant, as he earned a $100K incentive by reaching 4.0 sacks on the year. His 5.0 sacks are a career-high for a season.
Also, give a little credit to the coach who brought this out of him — one year after he was awful and got benched. Frank Reich is an offensive mastermind and y'all too busy complaining to even see it.
Michael Pittman Jr.: 6 catches, 77 yards, 2 rushes, 33 yards.
Kenny Moore didn't have a fast start this season, but he's sizzling now. Got an INT on first play + a forced fumble on the next possession. Darius Leonard: "I don't think he's getting enough credit. The energy right there switched and you could just see the doubt in their face."
Colts DT DeForest Buckner hyperextended his knee last Sunday, but will play today in Houston. Never missed a start to injury since joining the Colts last season. pic.twitter.com/Uj1k2zDTUx
Interesting that with Khari Willis back, Colts still go with Sendejo over George Odum at free safety.
29 takeaways now for the Colts' defense, including two in the first six minutes of today's game. How about big Grover Stewart chasing down Pharaoh Brown on that one...
It has felt to me like the Colts want to get rookie TE Kylen Granson a little more involved, but he's also got to give them reasons to go to him.
Michael Badgley misses his first kick with the Colts. Ugly looking one from 35 yards. On another note, Eric Fisher's 1-on-1 matchup is a constant struggle in pass protection.
Undrafted rookie running back Deon Jackson has his first career touchdown run. Colts gave Jackson a $45,000 signing bonus after the draft, and he's made the active roster because of his special teams prowess.
Colts at Texans: Stat watch Kwity Paye with 1 sack in 3 straight games. That's tied for 2nd-longest streak by a rookie in team history. Club rookie record: Duane Bickett 5 straight in 1985
Looked like Danny Pinter didn't pick up late blitz on sack of Wentz.
The Indianapolis Colts (6-6) and Houston Texans (2-9) released their lists of inactive players ahead of the Week 13 matchup at NRG Stadium.
While the Colts didn’t rule out any players on their final injury report, they did have three starters listed as questionable for the divisional game. Meanwhile, starting center Ryan Kelly was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list due to a positive test.
Here are the inactive players for the Colts in Week 13:
Here are the inactive players for the Texans in Week 13 (will be updated)
Rex Burkhead expected to start
Texans’ running back David Johnson, listed as questionable for Sunday due to an illness and thigh injury, is unlikely to play vs. the Colts, per source. (Adam Schefter on Twitter)
FF Today's Take: Johnson is also dealing with a thigh issue. His absence will mean more work for Rex Burkhead with Royce Freeman playing in a backup role. Burkhead is a suitable Flex option this week if you're desperate.
Officially active: Kyler Murray, Deandre Hopkins, Boston Scott, Brandin Cooks, Corey Davis. Officially inactive: Jalen Hurts, Allen Robinson, Justin Fields, Sterling Shepard, David Johnson, Kadarius Toney, Phillip Lindsay.
#Texans RB David Johnson (illness, thigh) is not expected to play today vs. the #Colts, source said.
Tyrod Taylor is out of the game, with Davis Mills taking over for Houston at QB.
#Texans veteran LB Zach Cunningham is a healthy inactive today for disciplinary reasons. This comes after Houston did the samething to safety Justin Reid last week.
Kamu Grugier-Hill on franchise-record 20 tackles: 'It's an honor, man. My whole career I've been pigeonholed as a special-teamer.' Said this is a place he wants to be, said he's proving 'He can be a legit player'
Royce Freeman gets his first carry as a Texan, and he gets -- no gain! Welcome to the Texans, Royce. Get used to it.
The Houston Texans have made a flurry of roster moves as they get ready for their Week 13 rematch with the Indianapolis Colts.
The Texans activated linebacker Christian Kirksey and center Justin Britt from injured reserve. They will be ready to go against Indianapolis.
Houston placed receiver Danny Amendola (knee) and defensive end DeMarcus Walker (hamstring) on injured reserve, clearing two open roster spots.
The Texans also opened up another spot on the roster by waiving defensive back Cre’von LeBlanc
Another possession, another turnover forced by Indy. Seemed like 15 guys punched the ball out of Pharaoh Brown's hands.
The Miami Dolphins are set to take on the New York Giants on Sunday afternoon with a chance to win their sixth game of the season.
Brian Flores’ team will be without safety Brandon Jones for the second week in a row, as he’s been dealing with ankle and elbow injuries. Eric Rowe really stepped up against Carolina, so it could be assumed that the same will happen this week.
Miami also announced that running back Phillip Lindsay, tight end Adam Shaheen, cornerback Trill Williams, defensive tackle John Jenkins, and linebacker Darius Hodge will be inactive for the Week 13 matchup

HOUSTON — When Tyrod Taylor signed with the Houston Texans in March, it appeared to be the perfect marriage between the two parties.
Taylor was in need of a home to prolong his career after losing the starting quarterback job to rookie Justin Herbert in Los Angeles, while the Texans were in pursuit of a placeholder under center with Deshaun Watson requesting a trade just two months prior.
Since his arrival, coach David Culley has remained adamant about Taylor retaining his role as Houston’s starting quarterback, until Sunday’s 31-0 loss to the Indianapolis Colts
Houston Texans center Justin Britt was pleased with the way the defense played against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 13.
Albeit the Texans lost 31-0 to the Colts at NRG Stadium, most of the problem was due to the offense’s inability to play complementary football. Houston’s offense generated 141 yards of total offense, their second-fewest yards total offense of 2021.
“We’ve got to figure out a way to score points, stay on the field, keep our defense off the field,†Britt said. “I thought they played really hard and fought for pretty much most of the game against a really good running team. But if we leave them out on the field, then we’re not doing them justice.â€
