Colts optimistic WR T.Y. Hilton, RB Marlon Mack play vs. Falcons

The Indianapolis Colts have run into a few injury troubles entering the Week 3 matchup with the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday—including wide receiver T.Y. Hilton and running back Marlon Mack.

Both players are listed as questionable for the matchup, but there is optimism that they go through their pregame workout and are able to play on Sunday, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.

#Colts offensive playmakers WR T.Y. Hilton (quadricep) and RB Marlon Mack (calf) are both game-time decision but there is optimism that both work out well and are active today, sources say.

Hilton is questionable with quad injury. He was limited all week during practice and was hit with the questionable tag entering the weekend. Head coach Frank Reich named him a game-time decision on Sunday.

Mack has been dealing with a calf issue that kept him from practicing all week. He was able to log a limited practice on Friday, but he too is truly a game-time decision.

The Colts will need all the playmakers they can get in what could be a shootout on Sunday, which means the status of Hilton and Mack is a big deal.
