Upon reviewing the available information, there is no evidence to confirm that the Indianapolis Colts have released seven players, including their best player, due to injury concerns. Recent reports indicate that the team has had multiple players inactive for games because of injuries, but these players were not released from the roster.
For instance, during Week 13 of the 2024 season, the Colts announced seven inactive players for their game against the New England Patriots:
- QB Sam Ehlinger (third quarterback)
- WR Josh Downs (shoulder)
- WR Ashton Dulin (ankle)
- S Darren Hall
- DE Isaiah Land
- C Tanor Bortolini
- T Braden Smith
These players were inactive for the game but remained on the team’s roster.
Additionally, in Week 7 against the Miami Dolphins, the Colts listed seven players as inactive, including notable names like running back Jonathan Taylor (ankle) and cornerback Chris Lammons (ankle). Again, these players were inactive due to injuries but were not released from the team.
While the team has managed injuries by designating players as inactive for specific games, there is no substantiated report of the Colts cutting seven players, including their top player, due to injury concerns.
