The Indianapolis Colts are elevating two players from the practice squad for Sunday's Week 7 game against the Minnesota Vikings.
Linebacker Germaine Pratt and cornerback Kenneth Harris will be game-day elevations. The team also announced they released punter Thomas Morstead, with Rigoberto Sanchez good to go for this week's game. He had been working through a foot injury.
Pratt will provide linebacker depth, with CJ Allen downgraded to out and Bryce Boettcher questionable. He started 12 games last season for the Colts and was recently signed to the practice squad.
Pratt finished the 2025 season making 101 of his 107 tackle attempts, while in coverage, he allowed 29 completions on 45 targets, surrendering 10.2 yards per catch. Pratt had one interception and three pass breakups.
Akeem Davis-Gaither and Jaylon Carlies have been the Colts' starters at linebacker, with Carlies specifically sharing playing time with Boettcher and Austin Ajiake.
Harris provides depth at cornerback with Sauce Gardner sidelined. He appeared in the Colts' regular-season opener, playing three special teams snaps and four on defense.
