INDIANAPOLIS — Two of the most important Colts defenders are still dealing with injuries as the team begins its week of preparation for the Titans.
Veteran cornerback Charvarius Ward remains in the concussion protocol, but he will practice on Wednesday, a sign that he’s in the final stages of the protocol.
Under the NFL’s concussion protocol, Ward must pass five steps — symptom-limited activity, aerobic exercise, football-specific exercise, non-contact practice and full-contact practice — before returning to play.
