Austin Collie, Pierre Garcon Injury Updates: Indianapolis Colts WRs Both Active

October 10, 2010   ·   Andrew Leigh   ·   Jump to comments

Wide receivers Austin Collie and Pierre Garcon are both active for Week 5 against the Kansas City Chiefs, which should be a boon to an already-clicking Indianapolis Colts passing game. If you are giving Peyton Manning even more viable targets to throw to, it could mean more match-up problems for the Chiefs' defense than they had originally expected.

Collie's status for Week 5 came into question when he was listed as questionable on the injury report with a foot injury, but it will not prevent him from playing against Kansas City.

Garcon had missed time with a hamstring injury, and his return gives Manning another of his preferred receivers to distribute the ball to. I would expect Collie to still be above Garcon in terms of frequency of targets, but both could have an impact given the Colts' offense being so strong at Lucas Oil Stadium.
