Indianapolis Colts DE Laiatu Latu recorded four solo tackles, six total tackles and 2.5 sacks against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 9.
Link to storyIndianapolis Colts WR Adonai Mitchell caught one pass for seven yards against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 9. He was targeted one time during the game.
Link to storyIndianapolis Colts TE Tyler Warren caught five passes for 26 yards against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 9. He was targeted seven times during the game.
| Footballguys view: Warren was the only underachiever in the Colts garbage time fueled passing game in the loss at Pittsburgh. He should bounce back next week against a Falcons defense that gave up multiple big catches to Patriots tight ends in Week 9. | 
Indianapolis Colts WR Josh Downs caught six passes for 57 yards and one touchdown against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 9. He was targeted nine times during the game but did lose a fumble when he was a punt returner.
| Footballguys view: Downs touchdown came in garbage time, and it made him a strong WR3/Flex play as the Colts were playing from way behind in the second half. Downs has become a more frequent target for Daniel Jones as the season has gone on, and he should be considered a WR3/Flex option against Atlanta in Week 10, with a higher ceiling in PPR leagues. |

Indianapolis Colts WR Michael Pittman Jr. caught nine passes for 115 yards against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 9. He was targeted 12 times during the game.
Link to storyIndianapolis Colts WR Alec Pierce caught six passes for 115 yards against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 9. He was targeted 13 times during the game.
| Footballguys view: Pierce had some success early, but the Colts offense was thwarted by self-inflicted wounds from five Daniel Jones turnovers. Pierce's numbers were inflated by garbage time, but this does illustrate the value he can have when the Colts are having to pass in the second half instead of sit on a big lead. Consider Pierce a what-the-heck WR3/Flex with upside against the Falcons next week. | 
Indianapolis Colts RB Ameer Abdullah rushed for three yards on one carry against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 9. He also caught one pass for two yards during the game.

Indianapolis Colts RB Jonathan Taylor rushed for 45 yards on 14 carries against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 9. He also caught two passes for 12 yards during the game.
| Footballguys view: Not every game can be a three touchdown banger from Taylor. The game got away from the Colts because of Daniel Jones five turnovers, but they also seemed to abandon the run earlier than they needed to. The Steelers defense (including the run defense) has been inconsistent, but very strong at their best, and they were strong today. Taylor should be much more productive against the Falcons next week. |

Indianapolis Colts QB Daniel Jones went 31-for-50 for 342 yards, one touchdown and three interceptions against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 9. He also rushed for four yards and one touchdown on three carries but lost two fumbles as well.
| Footballguys view: Jones rushing score came on the opening drive of the game, but the rest of the day was typified by turnovers against an opportunistic Steelers defense. While his fantasy showing was still good because of garbage time stats, but you wonder if his confidence was shaken by the five giveaways. He'll face another opportunistic defense when Atlanta comes to Indianapolis next week. |

Indianapolis Colts TE Tyler Warren (head) did not need to be placed in the concussion protocol after the Week 8 game, according to head coach Shane Steichen.
| Footballguys view: As SBNation characterized it, Warren finished the game with "what seems like a pedestrian four catches for 53 yards," but it was another solid outing for the young tight end. He could have had a bigger day, but he slipped on a screen pass that had touchdown potential. The Colts play the Steelers, who give up the second-most points to tight ends this season, in Week 9. | 
Indianapolis Colts QB Daniel Jones (head) did not need to be placed in the concussion protocol after the Week 8 game, according to head coach Shane Steichen.
| Footballguys view: As ESPN.com's Stephen Holder notes, Jones was a bit off on some of his first-half throws in Sunday's win over the Titans and seemed to be holding the ball too long at times. That contributed to more pass rush pressure than usual for the Colts. But even when he wasn't at his best, Jones still managed to make wise decisions and remain efficient. He completed 21-of-29 attempts for 272 yards and three TDs, avoiding a turnover for the sixth time in eight games this season. The Colts get a favorable passing matchup against the Steelers this week. |

Colts running back Jonathan Taylor continued to build a case to be NFL MVP with the fifth three-touchdown game of the season in Indianapolis' 38-7 victory over Tennessee. Taylor accounted for 174 yards from scrimmage in the dominant victory, rushing for 153 yards on 12 carries with two touchdowns on the ground and one through the air.
| Footballguys view: No running back has won MVP since Adrian Peterson in 2012, but Taylor has now registered at least 130 yards from scrimmage in each of Indianapolis' last three games. He's also scored three touchdowns in two consecutive games and in three of the team's last four contests. The centerpiece of Week 8 was a spectacular 80-yard touchdown run, during which he displayed his top-level speed and left the defense reeling. Taylor is now on pace for more than 1,800 rushing yards. The 7-1 the Colts will be on the road to face the Steelers next Sunday. |

Indianapolis Colts CB Darrell Baker Jr. (concussion) and LB Ali Gaye (knee) each left the Week 8 game against the Tennessee Titans early due to injury, and neither were able to return.
Link to storyIndianapolis Colts QB Daniel Jones completed 21-of-29 passes for 272 yards, three touchdowns and no interceptions in Week 8 against the Tennessee Titans, and he ran once for three yards before departing midway through the fourth quarter with a lopsided score on the board in favor of his team. QB Riley Leonard mopped up.
| Footballguys view: Jones was casual in his domination of the Titans woeful defense on his way to a typical (for 2025) strong QB1 fantasy week. There was talk of a long term contract with the Colts coming after this season, and Jones continues to show why. He'll face a beleaguered Steelers defense next week. |

Indianapolis Colts WR Josh Downs (concussion) is out of the concussion protocol and is on track to play in Week 8, according to head coach Shane Steichen.
| Footballguys view: Alec Pierce set season highs in targets, receptions, and yards last week. With Downs back, he should cut into that volume a bit. Downs was starting to heat up a bit before the concussion, getting on the field more often, running more routes, and pulling more targets. The Colts have a nice matchup this week against the Titans, but they might not be forced to throw much, making Downs a bit riskier than he'd be on a typical week. |

Indianapolis Colts CB Charvarius Ward (concussion) is expected to play again at some point this season, according to head coach Shane Steichen.
| Footballguys view: Ward sustained his second concussion of the season after a violent collision with tight end Drew Ogletree during pregame warmups for the Colts' Week 6 win over the Arizona Cardinals. Ward was down for a sustained period before regaining his faculties and being helped off the field. He was placed on injured reserve late last week. After missing Sunday's loss to the Chargers, Ward will be out at least three more games before he's eligible to return. |
