Fresh off a disappointing loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers, the red-hot Indianapolis Colts will try to get back on track in Week 10. An international game against the Atlanta Falcons should afford them that opportunity, especially after a monumental trade deadline.
But neither team is coming into the game at 100%. Here are the players who are officially on the injury report for both squads.

The Falcons have been up and down every week of the season. While they have some incredible victories on their resume, they’ve also had some massive struggles throughout the year.
As a result, it is hard to anticipate which version of Atlanta we will get in Week 10. However, after three consecutive losses, their hopes for a playoff berth are quickly starting to evaporate. At 3-5, the division is going out of reach unless they find a way to reel it back in.

The focus for Indianapolis is going to be on their recently acquired superstar, Sauce Gardner. After giving up two first-round picks for him, the Colts will be hoping that he can significantly help their 15th-ranked defense on PFSN’s Defense Impact.
But with DeForest Buckner going on IR, they are going to be climbing an uphill battle, especially against one of the best running backs in the league in Bijan Robinson.
