INDIANAPOLIS (AP) - Colts quarterback Andrew Luck ran with his teammates Wednesday, taking another step in his recovery from a lacerated kidney and partially torn abdominal muscle.

He says he is also throwing more passes with greater intensity.

Luck hasn't practiced since suffering the injuries Nov. 8 against Denver. At the time, Colts coach Chuck Pagano said Luck was expected to miss two to six weeks but neither Luck nor team officials have provided an update on his return. Asked Wednesday if there is a target date, Pagano and Luck said no.

The No. 1 overall pick in the 2012 draft has missed five starts with injuries this season. The Colts are tied with Houston atop the AFC South headed into Sunday's game against Jacksonville.
