Cowboys safety Caleb Downs returned to full participation in practice and carries no injury designation for the matchup with the Colts. He has cleared the concussion protocol, and his ankle injury will not keep him out of the game.

George Pickens, the Cowboys wide receiver dealing with a hamstring injury, has a questionable designation after continuing to practice on a limited basis. Safety P.J. Locke has also come through the concussion protocol and has no injury designation.

Four other players are questionable: cornerback Joey Porter Jr. with an ankle injury, tight ends Luke Schoonmaker with a groin injury and Jake Ferguson with an ankle injury, and linebacker DeMarvion Overshown with hamstring and back injuries.

Defensive tackle Jonathan Bullard, who has a calf injury, and linebacker Marist Liufau, who has a forearm injury, are questionable for activation from injured reserve. Linebacker Malachi Lawrence is out with an ankle injury, as is wide receiver KaVontae Turpin with a rib injury.
