It's not looking good for linebacker Blake Cashman to return from the turf toe injury that's sidelined him the last two weeks. Cashman didn't practice again on Thursday. Meanwhile, defensive tackle Taki Taimani (ankle) did not practice Thursday after being limited Wednesday. Offensive tackle David Quessenberry, who played 25 snaps in place of the injured Darrisaw last week, had full participation in Thursday's practice after being limited by a knee injury on Wednesday.

Defensive end Kwity Paye appeared on the injury report for the first time this week with a hamstring injury that limited his practice Thursday. Tackle Bernhard Raimann (concussion) remained out, but receiver Josh Downs (toe), center Ryan Kelly (calf/knee), receiver Michael Pittman (back) and tackle Braden Smith (knee) were full participants in practice after sitting out Wednesday.

Inside linebacker Blake Cashman (turf toe), who has missed the last two games, did not practice Wednesday, but went through a full allotment of rehab work on an outdoor field. Head coach Kevin O'Connell said: "I think we can have some pretty good understanding after [Wednesday] as to where Blake's at. I'm still really hopeful we'll have him Sunday night."

Offensive tackle David Quessenberry (knee) and defensive tackle Taki Taimani (ankle) were limited in practice.

O'Connell said tight end T.J. Hockenson (knee) is set to make his season debut and will not be limited to a predetermined snap count. "I think T.J. is ready to play," O'Connell said. "He's as good as he's looked since we got him here. And that's saying something considering the impact he made right away in '22, and the season he was having last year at the time he was hurt. He's a huge part of our offense, our system."

Five Colts players did not practice Wednesday: receiver Josh Downs (toe), center Ryan Kelly (calf/knee), receiver Michael Pittman (back), tackle Bernhard Raimann (concussion) and tackle Braden Smith (knee).
