Indianapolis Colts quarterback Andrew Luck will have to get the job done against the Pittsburgh Steelers without one of his top targets. Veteran wide receiver Reggie Wayne has been ruled out for Sunday's game with an elbow injury, according to Pro Football Focus.

Wayne left last week's game against the Cincinnati Bengals and was seen afterwards with his arm heavily bandaged. He sat out of Thursday practice, watching from the sideline with his arm in a compression sleeve.
The 35-year-old Wayne had his 2013 season cut short with an ACL tear, but has bounced back to post 38 catches and 434 yards this season, both good for second on the team.
The loss of Wayne is certainly a blow to the Colts offense, but it's not as devastating as his absence a season ago. That's because of the development of T.Y. Hilton, the third-year pro who leads the team in receptions and yardage this season.
