A Colts team that was already thin at the cornerback position placed veteran cornerback Charvarius Ward on injured reserve due to a concussion suffered on a hit from tight end Drew Ogletree during warmups last week.
Indianapolis added veteran running back Ameer Abdullah to the 53-man roster to take Ward’s place, a necessity given that the Colts were forced to downgrade Tyler Goodson to out on Saturday due to the groin injury that has caused Goodson to miss the last two games.
