Hayden back next week?

My fingers are officially crossed  Indy is instantly better when he plays.

“I’ll be ready next week,” he said as the Colts (10-0) prepared to play the Houston Texans (5-5) at Reliant Stadium in Houston, Texas, Sunday at 1 p.m.

Hayden, who has missed the last three weeks with a knee injury, practiced on a limited basis Friday.

He is listed as questionable for Sunday.

“It felt great,” Hayden said. “When you miss so much time and you actually get a chance to get back out there, it just feels so good. Everything comes back to you — the feeling you have when you’re out there. You feel kind of lost when you’re not playing, but when you get back out there, those things all come back and it feels good.
