Will Josh Downs play vs. Chargers? Indianapolis Colts receiver remains in concussion protocol


The Indianapolis Colts have injury concerns at wide receiver as their NFL Week 7 game against the Los Angeles Chargers nears.

Starter Josh Downs (concussion) and reserve Ashton Dulin (chest) did not practice for a second consecutive day. If the Colts are thin at that position, Adonai Mitchell — who has largely missed the past two games after a pair of big mistakes in Week 4 action — might be active.

Colts cornerback Charvarius Ward, who suffered a concussion in Week 6 pregame warmups, also missed a second straight day of practice.

Cold temperatures stick around all week | Jan 26, 2026


INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) –  Lots of snow covered roadways this morning including the interstates as well. Use caution if you are out on the interstates or the side streets throughout the day. The cold air is in place and will stick around throughout the rest of the week and even into the weekend. Temperatures will only be into the teens for highs and sub-zero low temperatures.

TODAY: A few flurries possible early this morning from some lake effect snow just off to the north of us. We’ll look for some sunshine later today but it is going to be bitterly cold. High temperatures only around 9 for the afternoon. Winds will be a bit breezy and could gust at times near 20 mph. That will create temperatures below zero all day long.

TONIGHT: Partly cloudy conditions tonight frigid with low temperatures falling below zero. We will see wind chill values anywhere from 15 to 25 degrees below zero. An extreme cold warning goes into place later tonight and will last until 11:00 on Tuesday. 

TOMORROW: Temperatures will start out in the morning below zero. Winds will be a bit gusty and could create wind chill values in the morning anywhere from 15 to 25 below zero. Partly cloudy skies on Tuesday. This will be the warmest day we see of the work week. Highs will be right around 20. Wind chill values will still be below zero at times. 

7 DAY EXTENDED FORECAST: The cold air sticks around heading into the middle and latter half of the week. Highs on Wednesday will only be right around 14. Look for mostly sunny skies on Wednesday clouds begin to increase Thursday and Friday. Temperatures really don’t budge, we’ll look for highs into the middle teens.

Some snow chances could be possible heading into the weekend. Doesn’t look like we’re going to see a massive system but rather just a few flurries at times. Temperatures are still going to be cold heading into the weekend as well.
