INDIANAPOLIS — Devin Funchess might have been placed on injured reserve after the first game of the regular season, but he’s remained a part of the Indianapolis Colts’ offensive plans.

And now it could just be a matter of days before the team can start the process of putting those plans to action once again.

The Colts could choose to return Funchess — who went on injured reserve Sept. 10 after undergoing surgery to his clavicle — to practice as soon as next week; if or when he does return to practice, that sets in motion a 21-day timeline the team faces to return the wide receiver to the active roster or revert him to I

Did I miss it in the article?  It doesn't say anything that Funchess is ready or able to return, just that he can return starting next week.

Nick foles went out the first week with the same injury and is expected to start practicing next week. I think he will be ready for practice next week.

 

 

So, is there anything in the articles that talks about Funchess being ready to practice next week?  Sorry but a QB with a similar injury on his non throwing arm doesn't mean much for a WR.

All we can go on  is the recovery time for the injury. He is right in that window. He has been posting stuff on IG where he looks like he is excited to return.  Once he starts practicing they have 21 days to put him on the active roster. Tyreek hill didn’t have surgery on his and returned two weeks ago.

All good points and Hill's injury was not the same... it didn't require surgery, so again has no bearing.  All I'm asking is, is there anything being reported that indicates Funchess is ready to start practicing next week?  And it would appear the answer is no.

All Reich said was he was making good progress. Reich never gives out to much injury info. The surgery is supposed to make healing faster.  He may or may not be back next week. Even if he isn’t healed enough for full contact their is a lot he can do in practice and be limited. Hill was basically catching balls and doing drills before returning to full practice.

    • This is spot on. Small market, and people want to think a St Elmo's steak, the combine and Manning's legacy is enough for people to want to just come to Indy to play. We don't have the night life, climate, roster or tax breaks to incentivize anyone to come here.  So the only way to do it is money.  We would automatically have to mark up every offer we want to make by 5-10% to have a chance at most of the top guys.  And the unfortunate reality of first tier free agents is that their value already gets marked up 20% to that players actual worth, so Ballard is probably out before the real negotiations are even taking place. We can afford to do that move for like ONE marquee player when the roster is ready....but not now, not on a good player who hit free agency because their former team didn't find them important enough to keep them.  We can never fall back on the fact that a we can lure a player here because of external factors.....because those will typically work against us. There was extensive discussion about this on page 48 of this thread. 
    • Yeah, his athleticism is from another planet.     To bad he doesn't believe in it(anything outside of the Earth). That media availability at the combine, didn't help his draft stock.
    • If they stick to that logic:    Tyler Owens SAF Texas Tech 12’2”   The broad jump record of 12 feet and three inches belongs to former Connecticut cornerback Byron Jones, who set the mark in 2015. Jones went on to be a first-round pick and it’s likely in part due to the explosive athleticism he showcased in this very drill.    He almost tied the record for longest broad jump 
    • This. Ballard has already traded a first round pick and got an additional 2nd. He had to trade out of the first round and the 2nd was the following year. I believe it was with Washington.  I’m with you. I highly doubt any team will give up their 1st and 2nd or 3rd for the 15th pick. 
    • Yep Love at first sight is a real thing. Congratulations Anthony and Jada.
