2019 Oakland Raiders Opponent Preview: Indianapolis Colts
By Brad Weiss
The Oakland Raiders will take on the Indianapolis Colts in Week 4 of the 2019 NFL season, and here is a preview of the Colts entering the summer.
In Week 4 of the 2019 NFL season, the Oakland Raiders will take on Andrew Luck and the Indianapolis Colts, who are coming off a fine 2018 season. Heading into the 2018 season, nobody really knew what to expect from Luck, who was coming off missing nearly two years with a shoulder injury, but he silenced everybody once again.
Luck finished behind only Patrick Mahomes in touchdown passes, and took a Colts team from the bottom of the AFC South, to a Wild Card berth. During their Wild Card game against divisional rival Houston, Luck led the Colts to the road win, before losing to the Kansas City Chiefs at home in the Divisional Round.
Still, this is a team on the rise, and will be another early-season test for Jon Gruden and the Raiders. In fact, the Raiders early-season schedule is a daunting one, and Luck will be a big test for the team’s revamped secondary as the Raiders finish off the first quarter of their 2019 season.
Here is a quick preview of the Colts roster after their offseason moves.
