Colts head coach Shane Steichen confirmed Friday that Taylor (thumb) is out for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Kevin Bowen of 107.5 The Fan Indianapolis reports.

Advice: As expected, Taylor will miss his second straight game after he failed to practice in any fashion this week while he continues his recovery from right thumb surgery. Per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, the Colts are bracing for a 3-to-5-week absence for Taylor, so the standout running back may be unlikely to make it back for Indianapolis' Week 15 matchup with the Steelers on Dec. 16. Zack Moss should handle a three-down role out of the Colts backfield for the duration of Taylor's absence. Rotowire.com 14 minutes ago

Coach Robert Saleh said Friday that Hall (ankle) will take part in Friday's practice, adding that he expects Hall to play Sunday against the Texans, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Advice: Hall didn't practice Wednesday or Thursday, but he'll be back on the practice field Friday. While the running back still has a chance to avoid the final injury report, especially if he practices without limitations, it's more likely that Hall will wind up with a questionable tag following Friday's practice. Saleh is optimistic that Hall will avoid his first absence of 2023 come Sunday. Rotowire.com Today, 9:23 am

Warren rushed seven times for 11 yards and secured four of five targets for 29 yards in the Steelers' 21-18 loss to the Patriots on Thursday night.

Advice: Warren turned in his most inefficient game of the season on the ground, although his receiving yardage total was his highest since Week 5. The second-year pro logged five fewer carries than backfield mate Najee Harris overall, and although he was more involved than the latter in the passing game, Warren figures to remain in a complementary role in a Week 15 road matchup against the Colts a week from Saturday.
