Matt Gay watches his field goal

Kicker Matt Gay might not be ready for the Colts’ season opener against the Texans on Sunday.

Gay has missed practice recently, and head coach Shane Steichen mentioned at his Wednesday press conference that Gay had a hernia. Gay told reporters that he experienced pain last week and had surgery to fix the problem.

Gay said he isn’t sure if he will be able to kick this weekend, so his status will need to be watched as the week goes on.

The Colts have Spencer Shrader on the practice squad. He went undrafted from Notre Dame and spent the offseason with the Colts before being released last month.
