Colts vs. Jets flexed out of Sunday night slot in Week 11

The Indianapolis Colts Week 11 matchup against the New York Jets has been flexed out of the Sunday night time slot.

The game will now be at 1:00 PM ET on November 17th and aired on CBS. The game flexed into the Sunday night matchup will be the Cincinnati Bengals at the Los Angeles Chargers.

This decision comes on the heels of the Colts having their first primetime game of the season this past Sunday night against Minnesota, a game that was flexed into that time slot a few weeks ago after originally being scheduled for a 1:00 PM ET kickoff.

With Joe Flacco at quarterback for the first time since the team announced that they were benching Anthony Richardson, the Indianapolis offense had a dreadful performance, recording season-lows in several key statistical categories.

The defense, meanwhile, did its best to keep points off the board for much of the game, but the Colts’ inability to sustain any sort of drive on offense coupled with the Vikings’ high-powered passing game was eventually too much to overcome for the defensive side of the ball.

The Colts currently sit at 4-5 on the season and face another difficult matchup in Week 10 as they host the Buffalo Bills at Lucas Oil Stadium.

New York, meanwhile, is coming off a win in Week 9 over Houston, and although loaded with talent, still sit at 3-6 this year.
