    INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. — The Indianapolis Colts hit the field for the opening practice of Week 5 ahead of their matchup this Sunday at Lucas Oil Stadium against the Las Vegas Raiders.

    Here's how each team's health is shaping up ahead of Sunday afternoon's battle:

    COLTS

    WEDNESDAY

    • Did Not Participate — LB Zaire Franklin (ankle), RB Tyler Goodson (groin), CB Xavien Howard (personal), CB Kenny Moore II (Achilles), S Daniel Scott (knee)
    • Limited Participant — G Matt Goncalves (toe)
    • Full Participant — WR Alec Pierce (concussion)

    The Colts got a pair of players back on the practice field who did not practice last week and therefore did not play last Sunday in the Colts' loss to the Los Angeles Rams. Starting right guard Goncalves got in a limited session, and Pierce is all the way up to full participation after suffering a concussion in the Week 3 win over the Tennessee Titans.

    Franklin, Howard, and Scott were previously unknown additions to the injury report, and Goodson injured his groin during the Rams game and did not return.

    Moore remains sidelined after leaving the Titans game early with his Achilles injury.

    RAIDERS

    • Did Not Participate — WR Justin Shorter (illness)
    • Limited Participant — TE Brock Bowers (knee), LB Brennan Jackson (foot), TE Michael Mayer (concussion), CB Eric Stokes (knee)
    • Full Participant — CB Decamerian Richardson (hamstring)

    As far as players on the active roster, the Raiders are in decent health-shape. However, they did place left tackle Kolton Miller on Injured Reserve this week with an ankle injury.
