Fort Lauderdale, Fla. (AP)— Reggie Wayne gave the Indianapolis Colts quite a
scare Friday when he pulled up short on a pass route.
The four-time Pro Bowl receiver left practice 20 minutes early after
aggravating an injured right knee.
Coach Jim Caldwell said Wayne hurt the soft tissue below his kneecap. Wayne
is listed as probable and Caldwell plans on him playing against New Orleans.
Wayne got through the injury most of the season.
But the Colts still don’t have an answer on All-Pro defensive end Dwight Freeney. He hasn’t practiced since tearing a ligament in his right ankle during
the AFC title game.
Freeney wanted to test the ankle Friday and he still could. Caldwell said
Freeney might do some running or participate in a simulated practice later in
the day. Freeney hopes to work out Saturday and is listed as questionable.
He’s still expected to play in Sunday’s Super Bowl.
