Per Coach Steichen, WR Ashton Dulin (ankle) has been ruled out for #INDvsKC. Via @Colts on X

What happened: Steichen ruled Dulin out Friday because of an ankle injury. The decision removes him from availability for Sunday.

Why it matters: Late-week injury calls carry extra weight because most game-week practice work is already complete by Friday. That leaves less time to reshuffle the receiver rotation before kickoff.

What to watch: Watch Sunday’s inactive list and any follow-up from Steichen on whether the ankle issue extends beyond this game.
