Colts' Warren and Gardner miss second consecutive practice
Seven players returned to practice as Indianapolis prepared to face the Vikings, while Tyler Warren and Sauce Gardner remained sidelined.
Colts tight end Tyler Warren and cornerback Sauce Gardner each missed a second consecutive practice ahead of the team's game against the Vikings. Warren has a groin injury, while Gardner is dealing with a calf injury.
Head coach Shane Steichen said Warren was progressing well after missing the team's previous game. Gardner said his calf injury was less severe than the one he sustained the previous year.
Seven players returned to practice: receiver Keenan Allen and cornerback Charvarius Ward after rest absences; linebacker Bryce Boetticher, who has a groin injury; guard Matt Goncalves and tight end Drew Ogletree, both with ankle injuries; cornerback Justin Whalley, who has a knee injury; and defensive tackle Jerry Tillery, who had been absent for personal reasons.
An ankle injury limited linebacker CJ Allen's participation, while receiver Ashton Dulin was limited with a hamstring injury. Receiver Anthony Gould remained out with a concussion, and punter Rigoberto Sanchez did not participate because of a right foot injury. Defensive tackle Grover Stewart also sat out for rest.
