Already reeling with injuries, the Indianapolis Colts learned that they will have to play without star defensive end Dwight Freeney for the rest of the season. Freeney suffered a Lisfranc foot injury last Sunday against San Diego and will have surgery later this week. He was placed on injured reserve Wednesday, joining fellow starting defenders Rob Morris and Anthony McFarland.

Commentary: The Colts claimed Simeon Rice off waivers on Monday and will hope he can help fill the void caused by Freeney's absence. But that is not going to happen -- Rice couldn't even break into the rotation on Denver's shaky defensive line.

Fantasy Football Impact: None.
