Gay was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice due to an ankle injury, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.

Gay is tending to a sore ankle, though it wasn't enough to keep him out of practice entirely. The 27-year-old is 10-for-11 on field goals and 15-for-16 on point-after attempts through five games, and the ankle issue isn't expected to affect his availability for the Rams' Week 6 matchup with the Giants.

Blankenship (hip) was a non-participant at Wednesday's practice.

Blankenship's absence from practice comes as little surprise, after head coach Frank Reich said the kicker underwent an MRI on Tuesday after dealing with the hip injury in Monday's 31-25 overtime loss to the Ravens. The Colts tried out some kickers Wednesday and signed Michael Badgley to the practice squad, per Mike Chappell of Fox 59 News Indianapolis. Badgley will presumably be elevated to the 53-man roster by Saturday if the Colts aren't confident Blankenship will be ready to kick Sunday against the Texans.

Maher (groin) had a workout with the Colts on Wednesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Maher spent time with New Orleans in training camp before suffering the groin injury and being cut, and he's now attempting to secure a job with a new team. The 31-year-old last kicked in 2019 for the Cowboys, going 20-for-30 on field goals while making all 36 PATs.

The Colts will sign Badgley to their practice squad Wednesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Badgley missed his only field-goal attempt with the Titans in Week 1 before being promptly cut by the team. The 26-year-old may not have to wait long for his next opportunity, however, as the Colts could elevate him to the roster for Sunday's game against the Texans if top kicker Rodrigo Blankenship (hip) isn't available.

Colts head coach Frank Reich said Blankenship (hip) underwent an MRI on Tuesday, leaving the kicker's status uncertain heading into a Week 6 matchup with the Texans, Joel A. Erickson of The Indianapolis Star reports. "I'll get the results [of the MRI], and then we'll talk through with [general manager Chris Ballard] what we need to do, whether we need to bring in another kicker, how extensive is the injury."

The Colts already seem to be bracing for Blankenship not being available for Sunday's game, with Ian Rapoport of NFL Network relaying Wednesday that the team worked out kickers Brett Maher and Michael Badgley. Blankenship was clearly limited by the injury in the Colts' Week 5 loss to the Ravens on Monday, telling Stephen Holder of The Athletic that he felt "stabbing pain" in his right hip prior to the contest. Though he proceeded to play through the pain, he missed one of two extra-point attempts, had a 37-yard field-goal attempt blocked and misfired on another try from 47 yards that would have won the game.

Coach Frank Reich said Tuesday that he's uncertain about the severity of Blankenship's hip injury, Joel Erickson of the Indianapolis Star reports.

Reich confirmed that Blankenship has undergone an MRI, and he addressed the possibility of Indianapolis bringing in another kicker. Still, for the time being, it remains unclear whether Blankenship will be forced to miss time. The Colts take on the Texans this weekend.

Gay made both of his field-goal attempts but missed one of his three extra-point tries in Week 5's 26-17 win over the Seahawks.

Gay converted from 31 yards on his first kick of the game, but he then failed with his opening PAT attempt, marking his first such miss this season. Fortunately, Gay rallied to make his next two, then finished with a 47-yard field goal to ice the game. Despite his uncharacteristic misfire, Gay now sports 45 points through five games, ranking third league-wide among kickers in the category this season.

Carlson made his only field-goal try but did not attempt an extra point in Sunday's 20-9 loss to the Bears.

Carlson converted from 31 yards on his lone kick of the game, but his decreased opportunities have now seen him post just five points over his last two outings. That recent decline suddenly places Carlson outside the top 10 among kickers league-wide in points (39) through five games.

Butker made both his field-goal attempts and both his extra-point tries in Sunday night's 38-20 loss to the Bills.

Butker converted from 38 yards to open the scoring before drilling a 54-yarder to end the first half. With eight points total Sunday, he brought his season tally to 34 through five games, surprisingly leaving him in the middle of the pack among kickers league-wide thus far.

Bass made his only field-goal attempt as well as all five of his extra-point tries in Sunday night's 38-20 win over the Chiefs.

Bass converted from 30 yards on his lone field goal, which along with his handful of PATs allowed the second-year kicker to remain atop the league in points (52) at his position this season.
