INDIANAPOLIS –After practice on Tuesday, Indianapolis Colts Coach Shane Steichen said he plans to play his starters in the team’s final preseason game Thursday night against the Cincinnati Bengals.

“Yeah, our starters will play about a quarter and a half, probably give or take. I mean, some guys might play less, some guys might play more, but want to get those guys out there and run around on Thursday night,” said Steichen.

He says he’s also looking forward to seeing what quarterback Anthony Richardson will do.

“I think it’ll be great. I think it’ll be really good for him. Any time you can get out there in those game-like situations, it’s good. Obviously, you want to be smart with these guys in the preseason because we’ve got a long season ahead of us, but we’re excited to get those guys out there on Thursday,” Steichen continued.

On the injury front, he did say that Colts tight end Jelani Woods is dealing with a toe injury.

“Yeah, he’s going to be out for a little bit. I don’t have a timetable on it, but he’s going to miss some time,” said Steichen.

Kickoff between Indianapolis and Cincinnati is at 8 pm Thursday night. Live coverage can be heard on 93.5 and 107.5 The Fan.

The Colts begin the regular season September 8 against Houston.
