Hilton suffered chest and hamstring injuries on separate plays during Sunday's loss to the Houston Texans. After the game, head coach Frank Reich said it was unlikely Hilton would be ready for Thursday Night Football.

Mack, meanwhile, has missed the past three games due to a hamstring ailment.

Also out are tight end Jack Doyle, corner Kenny Moore, defensive lineman Hassan Ridgeway, corner Quincy Wilson, and right tackle Denzelle Good.

The Colts will be in tough while trying to record their first win against the Patriots since 2009. New England has won the last seven meetings between the two teams.
