Will Holden is normally a backup right tackle, but given the Colt's issues at tackle, there is concern here as the Colts final injury report has Holden out for this weekend. He the team's swing tackle as the Colts are missing starter Anthony Castonzo due to ankle surgery. Backup Le'Raven Clark tore his Achilles recently, and they have just coaxed longtime NFL tackle Jared Veldheer out of retirement, and he performed well in Week 17, logging 100% of offensive snaps. There is even more value put on the blind side given Philip Rivers' lack of mobility, especially with the turf toe issue he's been playing through. This is the area of biggest concern for the Colts against a completely healthy Bill's defense, and their depth behind Veldheer would likely mean having to kick out a guard to tackle if something happens this week.
