A Colts wide receiver who is dealing with another concussion is still day-to-day according to the team's head coach.

Listen:

Chuck Pagano would not speculate on whether Austin Collie will return soon or at all after leaving the Colts' last preseason game against the Steelers with his fourth concussion since the 2010 season. Collie hasn't spoken to the media, but Tweeted that he felt great, something Pagano told members of the media as well.

Pagano didn't bite when a reporter asked him what he would tell Collie if the receiver were his own son. The coach says no one in the Colts organization will rush a concussed player back on the field too quickly, and says the team's doctors will determine whether or not someone needs to talk to Collie about his future in football.
