Jordan Wilkins
Running Back No. 7 (77.6), 11 snaps (15 percent)
We went more in depth on Wilkins' performance following the game, but in short, the man was efficient. Although he was on the field for just 11 offensive snaps, he carried the ball five times and caught his only target. In the run game, his five carries went for 82 yards (16.4 avg), with a long of 55, and his reception was for four yards.
Wilkins didn't see any offensive snaps in Week 1 after returning from a preseason ankle injury, but a hot, muggy day down in Nashville allowed the Colts to get more runners involved in the backfield.
Trailing by four points with over six minutes remaining in the game, the Colts marched 69 yards down the field in just four plays, but Wilkins' 55-yard jaunt down the right sideline was easily the highlight. The Colts were able to score the very next play after Wilkins got the Colts inside Tennessee's 5-yard line, and they wouldn't relinquish the lead.
