Phillip Lindsay: Let go from practice squad
The Colts cut Phillip Lindsay from the practice squad Thursday.Lindsay was activated from the practice squad Week 9 versus New England, but Indianapolis' new coaching staff has already decided to part ways with the veteran running back in favor of Jake Funk. Now, Lindsay will likely have to search for a practice squad opportunity elsewhere in the league.

Phillip Lindsay: Returns to practice squad
Phillip Lindsay reverted to the Colts' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.Lindsay received the promotion with Jonathan Taylor (ankle) out Sunday against the Patriots. The veteran running back saw nine plays on offense, getting one carry for two yards, and he was unable to catch his only target. If Taylor is unable to suit up Week 10 against the Raiders, Lindsay could receive another bump up to the active roster.

Colts' Phillip Lindsay: Bumped up to active roster
Phillip Lindsay was elevated to the active roster Saturday, Zak Keefer of The Athletic reports.This was predictable after the Indianapolis Colts announced Friday that Jonathan Taylor (ankle) would not play. Lindsay tallied 14 carries for 47 yards to go along with six catches for 19 yards in the two games Taylor missed earlier this season, but that came before the emergence of Deon Jackson, who is slated to start Sunday's game, and the arrival of former Bills running back Zack Moss, who could be a candidate for carries if he's able to get a grip on the playbook.

Phillip Lindsay: Likely to be elevated again
Phillip Lindsay is likely to be called up from the Colts' practice squad for Sunday's game against the Patriots with Jonathan Taylor (ankle) ruled out, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.Lindsay racked up 14 carries and six catches in two previous appearances for Indianapolis while working behind Deon Jackson with Taylor sidelined. He's likely to slide into the No. 2 role behind Jackson once again Week 9, as recent trade acquisition Zack Moss is unlikely to see significant playing time so soon after being brought in.

Phillip Lindsay: Moves back to practice squad
Phillip Lindsay reverted to the Colts' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.Lindsay was elevated for the second game in a row, as top running backs Jonathan Taylor (ankle) and Nyheim Hines (concussion) sat out during Sunday's 34-27 win over the Jaguars. Lindsay recorded three carries for seven yards and caught all three of his targets for another five yards. He also converted a two-point conversion on a late rush, and he wound up playing 27 of Indianapolis' 81 offensive snaps behind Deon Jackson (quad). Lindsay will now be eligible for just one more elevation from the Colts' practice squad before requiring a full roster spot in order to continue suiting up this season.

Colts' Phillip Lindsay: Modest showing in win
Phillip Lindsay rushed three times for seven yards and secured all three targets for five yards in the Indianapolis Colts' 34-27 win over the Jaguars on Sunday. He also recorded a two-point conversion run.Deon Jackson exited late in the game with a quad injury per Andrew Walker of the team's official site, and Lindsay therefore got the call on a key two-point conversion run with 17 seconds remaining following Alec Pierce's game-winning 32-yard touchdown grab. The veteran has been elevated from the practice squad for the last pair of contests due to Jonathan Taylor's (ankle) absence, and if Jackson's injury lingers, Lindsay could garner active status yet again in a Week 7 road divisional clash with the Titans even if Taylor is active for the contest.

Colts' Phillip Lindsay: Elevated for Week 6
Indianapolis elevated Phillip Lindsay from the practice squad to its active roster Saturday ahead of Sunday's game versus Jacksonville.Lindsay will be active for the Indianapolis Colts for the second straight week after he accumulated 54 scrimmage yards on 14 touches in the 12-9 overtime win over the Broncos in Week 5. He played 36 percent of the snaps in that contest, while fellow running back Deon Jackson played 60 percent and took on 17 touches while Jonathan Taylor (ankle) was out and after fill-in starter Nyheim Hines (concussion) exited after playing just one snap. Both Taylor and Hines have been downgraded to out for the matchup with the Jaguars, but Lindsay still may find himself as Option 1B in a timeshare out of the backfield with Jackson for the second game in a row.

Phillip Lindsay: Not present Wednesday
Phillip Lindsay (undisclosed) was not present during Wednesday's practice, Kevin Bowen of 1075 The Fan reports.With Jonathan Taylor (ankle) sidelined, Lindsay was elevated from the practice squad for Week 5 and immediately saw an expanded role after Nyheim Hines (concussion) left the game following the Colts' first possession. It's unclear why Lindsay missed practice, but his absence is concerning given Taylor was held out of practice as well and Hines was limited to non-contact drills, leaving Deon Jackson and D'Vonte Price, who's on the team's practice squad, as the only healthy running backs participating Wednesday. More clarity on the Colts' backfield will come following Thursday and Friday's practices.

Phillip Lindsay: Back to practice squad
Phillip Lindsay reverted to the Colts' practice squad Friday, per the NFL's transaction log.With Jonathan Taylor (ankle) out, Lindsay was elevated to the active roster ahead of Thursday's contest, and the latter immediately saw an expanded role after Nyheim Hines (concussion) had to leave the game following the Colts' first offensive drive. Lindsay played 30 of the team's 79 offensive snaps, finishing second among running backs behind Deon Jackson's 46, and ended with 14 touches for 54 total yards. If Taylor remains sidelined for Week 6, expect Lindsay and Jackson to continue garnering major roles for Indianapolis' offense.

Colts' Phillip Lindsay: Solid showing in season debut
Phillip Lindsay rushed 11 times for 40 yards and secured three of four targets for 14 yards in the Indianapolis Colts' 12-9 overtime win over the Broncos on Thursday night.Called up from the practice squad earlier in the day, Lindsay did a serviceable job in tandem with Deon Jackson to help make up for the absence of Jonathan Taylor (ankle). The veteran Lindsay got off to a fast start against his original squad before losing some of his efficiency on his later carries. If Taylor can't suit up for a Week 6 home matchup against the Jaguars a week from Sunday, it's conceivable Lindsay sees another elevation to the active roster.
