The Indianapolis Colts are elevating wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine to the game-day roster for Sunday's contest against the Commanders.
This is Westbrook-Ikhine's second practice squad elevation. He has one more remaining for the 2026 season.
We have elevated WR Nick Westbrook-Ikhine to the active roster from the practice squad for #INDvsWAS.

Why did the Colts elevate WR Nick Westbrook-Ikhine?
This elevation comes as the Colts are dealing with injuries at the receiver position.
The team is already without Alec Pierce, and Keenan Allen has now been ruled out of Sunday's game with a groin injury.
Ashton Dulin is also questionable after missing the previous two games, although he was a full participant in the Thursday and Friday practices.
Perhaps this week we see Darius Slayton make his Colts' debut
as well.
Last week against Houston, Westbrook-Ikhine played just one offensive snap and 15 on special teams.
