	Colts’ Rhodes misses practice, but plans to play vs. Jets
Indianapolis Colts running back Dominic Rhodes sat out practice Wednesday and Thursday with a hip injury, but plans to be on the field when the Colts host the New York Jets in the opening round of the playoffs Saturday, according to the Terre Haute Tribune-Star. “I’m fine,” said Rhodes. “(Sitting out of practice) is just precautionary. I wouldnâ€™t miss (the game).” Rhodes compiled 172 yards in the Colts’ final three regular season games, helping the team average 149 yards per game. Rhodes was a key player for the Colts when they won the Super Bowl after the 2006 season. The Colts picked him up again after their backs were hurt late in the season, and he provided a boost with his play and in the locker room. Safeties Mike Newton (hamstring) and Al Afalava (ankle); linebacker Clint Session (elbow); Ryan Diem (back) and Jamey Richard (concussion); and cornerback Kelvin Hayden (neck) missed Thursday’s practice. Wide receiver Reggie Wayne (knee) and defensive tackle Antonio Johnson (chest) was limited in practice. Offensive linemen Jaimie Thomas (ankle) practiced Thursday, along with defensive linemen Daniel Muir (chest), Dwight Freeney (rested) and defensive end Robert Mathis (rested).
