Braden Smith

Colts RT Braden Smith (knee) did not practice Wednesday.

Smith was banged up in 2023 but has been healthy for all three games to start this season. He is a monster in the run game and can more than hold his own in pass-protection. Pro Football Focus has him with their No. 14 offensive grade among all tackles through three weeks. Losing Smith would be a big blow to a Colts rushing attack that got things going against the Bears last week.
