The Indianapolis Colts (4-11-1) released their unofficial depth chart ahead of the Week 18 matchup against the Houston Texans (2-13-1).
The term “unofficial” should be taken to heart here as the pecking order could change on a whim. Most of it will remain unchanged unless roster moves are made, but we’ll be here to keep track every week.

Here’s a look at the unofficial depth chart going into the Week 178 matchup against the Texans:
Offense
Pos. | First | Second | Third |
QB | Sam Ehlinger | Matt Ryan | Nick Foles |
RB | Deon Jackson | Zack Moss | Jake Funk |
WR | Michael Pittman Jr. | Mike Strachan | |
WR | Alec Pierce | Ashton Dulin | |
WR | Parris Campbell | ||
TE | Mo Alie-Cox | Nikola Kalinic | |
TE | Kylen Granson | Jelani Woods | |
LT | Bernhard Raimann | Dennis Kelly | |
LG | Quenton Nelson | ||
C | Ryan Kelly | Wesley French | |
RG | Will Fries | Matt Pryor | Danny Pinter |
RT | Braden Smith |
Notes
- QB Sam Ehlinger will start in Week 18 after Nick Foles suffered a ribs injury against the Giants. Matt Ryan will be the backup.
- RB Deon Jackson is still listed as the starter, but Zack Moss has held the actual role. Jake Funk replaced Jordan Wilkins on the roster this week.
- WR Ashton Dulin was inactive in Week 17 due to a concussion, and it will be something to monitor to see if he can make his way back for the finale.
Defense
Pos. | First | Second | Third | Fourth |
DE | Kwity Paye | Khalid Kareem | ||
DT (3T) | DeForest Buckner | Byron Cowart | Chris Williams | |
DT (1T) | Grover Stewart | Eric Johnson II | ||
DE | Dayo Odeyingbo | Ben Banogu | Kameron Cline | |
WILL | Bobby Okereke | Cameron McGrone | Grant Stuard | |
MIKE | Zaire Franklin | |||
SAM | E.J. Speed | JoJo Domann | ||
CB | Brandon Facyson | Darrell Baker Jr. | ||
Slot | Kenny Moore II | Tony Brown | ||
CB | Stephon Gilmore | Dallis Flowers | ||
FS | Julian Blackmon | Rodney Thomas II | ||
SS | Rodney McLeod | Nick Cross |
Notes
- DE Yannick Ngakoue was placed on the injured reserve list before the Week 17 game, and Kameron Cline was promoted from the practice squad.
- Replacing Ngakoue at the other defensive end spot is Dayo Odeyingbo.
- LB Cameron McGrone has been a healthy scratch for the two games he’s been with the team since being signed off the Patriots’ practice squad.
- CB Brandon Facyson is likely in the concussion protocol so we may see more of rookie Dallis Flowers.
Special Teams
Pos. | First | Second |
