    Colts LG Joe Reitz was forced from Thursday’s game in the third quarter with an ankle injury.
    Backup center Mike Pollack has come on to replace Reitz, who is questionable to return.
  • Taking on a leadership role after Jeff Saturday’s exit, Mike McGlynn is penciled in as the starting right guard on a rebuilt Colts offensive line.
    McGlynn and RT Winston Justice are favorites of new GM Ryan Grigson, who imported them from Philly. With 2011 second-rounder Ben Ijalana still inexperienced and recovering from a knee injury, Joe Reitz has the edge at left guard. Samson Satele and Anthony Castonzo are locked in at center and left tackle respectively.
  • IND Guard #76
    Colts LG Joe Reitz (knee) missed practice all week and is out for Week 1.
    Reitz didn’t even travel with the team. Seth Olsen will step in and man the position in Reitz’s absence, while Jeff Linkenbach backs up. Andrew Luck’s protection is going to be shaky all season long.
  • IND Guard #76
    Coach Chuck Pagano confirmed LG Joe Reitz had a “minor” surgical procedure on his knee.
    That explains Reitz’s extended absence. Pagano expects both Reitz and ILB Pat Angerer (foot) to return against the Packers after the Week 4 bye. Seth Olsen, a major liability in pass protection, has been filling in for Reitz.
  • IND Guard #76
    Colts LG Joe Reitz left Sunday’s Week 13 game against the Lions with an undisclosed injury.
    Reitz went down early in the first quarter and appeared dazed as he was carted off the field. Consider him doubtful to return. Jeff Linkenbach has come on at left guard.
  • IND Guard #76
    Colts LG Joe Reitz underwent arthroscopic surgery on his knee on Tuesday.
    A starter for all seven games so far, Reitz isn’t in danger of being placed on injured reserve, so there’s a good chance he’ll return within a few weeks. Veteran Jamey Richard was re-signed to add depth on the interior.
  • IND Guard #76
    Colts LG Joe Reitz (concussion) has been ruled out for the Wild Card Round.
    Reitz graded out negatively as both a run and pass blocker this regular season by Pro Football Focus. Of course, backup Jeff Linkenbach was even worse. It’s a concerning loss because Haloti Ngata often lines up over the opposing left guard. As it was all year, line play will be a weakness for Indy in the playoffs.
  • IND Guard #76
    Colts LG Joe Reitz did not return after sustaining a head injury in Week 17.
    He may have to go through the NFL’s testing protocol. Reitz also left the Week 13 game with a head injury, appearing dazed while being carted off the field. Backup Jeff Linkenbach would be a liability if forced to start at Baltimore on Sunday.
  • IND Guard #76
    Colts re-signed exclusive rights free agent OG Joe Reitz.
    Reitz started eight games at left guard last season, but was an adventure both as a run blocker and pass protector. Reitz will face competition in the form of FA signee Donald Thomas or a draft pick. Ideally for Indy, he’d lose. Jeff Linkenbach is another (bad) option. Thomas may supplant Mike McGlynn at right guard.
  • Defensive Back
    The Colts will tender offers to restricted free agents CB Cassius Vaughn and OL Jeff Linkenbach.
    Vaughn and Linkenbach combined to start 19 games for the Colts last season, but if Indianapolis is to take the next step, then both of them will be limited to backup roles in 2013. The Colts will also tender offers to exclusive rights free agents CB Josh Gordy, NT Martin Tevaseu, and OG Joe Reitz.
