  "account": "Indianapolis cornerback Charvarius Ward is listed as questionable for the upcoming game due to a groin injury. Ward, the veteran starter on the outside, has left a significant void in the Colts' secondary. If Ward is unable to play for an extended period, the team will likely move Justin Walley to the outside and bring Cam Taylor-Britt into the nickel position. This configuration was tested by the Colts during training camp after Ward missed two weeks due to a back injury. However, both Walley and Taylor-Britt have faced difficulties this season. Walley has struggled in the first two weeks with numerous big throws in coverage, while Taylor-Britt has not played since early in the 2025 season.",
