Colts | No IR expected to for Sauce Gardner Mon Dec 1, 03:00 PM
Indianapolis Colts CB Sauce Gardner (calf) is not a candidate for the Reserve/Injured list, according to head coach Shane Steichen.
Link to story Colts | Sauce Gardner out a few weeks Mon Dec 1, 10:52 AM
Updating previous reports, Indianapolis Colts CB Sauce Gardner (calf) is expected to miss a few weeks with a calf strain, but he avoided major injury.
| Footballguys view: Gardner had an MRI and is considered week-to-week with the hope that he'll be back this year, according to NFL Network. The Colts made a massive investment in Gardner, trading two first-round picks and wide receiver Adonai Mitchell to the Jets for him. Up next for the Colts is Sunday's game against the Jaguars, with first place in the AFC South on the line. They'll face the Jaguars again three weeks later, and hope to have Gardner back by then. |

Colts | Tyler Warren scores fourth touchdown Sun Nov 30, 05:04 PM
Indianapolis Colts TE Tyler Warren caught three of four targets for 22 yards in a Week 13 loss to the Houston Texans.
| Footballguys view: Warren's most impactful play was an ill-fated tush push call on a fourth down in the red zone when Warren was in motion before taking the snap. He was quiet as expected against a good defense, but should bounce back next week against a Jaguars defense that has been very generous to opposing tight ends at times this season. |
Colts | Alec Pierce finds the end zone in Week 13 Sun Nov 30, 05:02 PM
Indianapolis WR Alec Pierce caught four of five targets for 78 yards and a 19-yard touchdown reception in a Week 13 loss to the Houston Texans.
| Footballguys view: Pierce also drew a key pass interference penalty on a third and 19, and defended on a Hail Mary pass to end the first half. He was Mr. Everything for the Colts on an afternoon when little came easy against the elite Texans defense. He has earned the trust of Daniel Jones on 50-50 ball, and caught his touchdown over double coverage in this game. He's a boom/bust WR3/Flex against the Jaguars next week and in the fantasy playoffs. |
Colts | Michael Pittman non-factor again Sun Nov 30, 04:54 PM
Indianapolis WR Michael Pittman Jr. caught one of four targets for 13 yards in a Week 13 loss to the Houston Texans.
| Footballguys view: Alec Pierce was the dominant target in the Colts passing game even though the Texans have one of the best pass rushes in the league. That left Pittman out in the cold, as his catches were close to the line of scrimmage and not impactful in NFL or fantasy terms. Pittman is still a solid WR3/Flex play going forward, but he might not end up being the most valuable Colts wide receiver in the fantasy playoffs. |
Colts | Josh Downs held under three receptions for third straight game Sun Nov 30, 04:39 PM
Indianapolis WR Josh Downs caught two of six targets for 44 yards in a Week 13 loss to the Houston Texans.

Colts | Jonathan Taylor tops 100 yards but held out of end zone Sun Nov 30, 04:37 PM
Indianapolis Colts RB Jonathan Taylor carries 21 times for 85 yards and caught three of five targets for 36 more in a Week 13 loss to the Houston Texans.
| Footballguys view: Taylor got a good helping of touches in a close game, but never broke free as a runner to influence the outcome of this game or fantasy matchups. The Colts offense doesn't have a high weekly ceiling with Daniel Jones banged up, so teams that Taylor helped get to the fantasy playoffs are going to need other players to step up if they are going to bring home a title. |

Colts | Efficient Performance For Daniel Jones Sun Nov 30, 04:29 PM
Indianapolis Colts QB Daniel Jones completed 14 of 27 for 201 yards and two touchdowns without an interception in a Week 13 loss to the Houston Texans.
| Footballguys view: Jones made multiple clutch downfield throws to Alec Pierce and wasn't the reason the Colts lost this crucial divisional game. He did as well as you could have asked an injured quarterback to play against one of the best pass defenses in the league. Fantasy expectations for Jones are still lowered for next week's game against the Jags, so you'll probably want to turn to another option. |

Indianapolis Colts TE Tyler Warren (illness) was added to the injury report with a questionable designation Saturday, Nov. 29, for Week 13's game against the Houston Texans.
| Footballguys view: Warren's status for Sunday's game against the Texans is up in the air. Fantasy GMs need to have other plans in place, and keep an eye on Warren's situation leading right up to kickoff. |

Colts | Daniel Jones practices ahead of Week 13 Fri Nov 28, 01:27 PM
Indianapolis Colts QB Daniel Jones (fibula) practiced in full on Friday, Nov. 28.
| Footballguys view: After a mid-week scare, Jones logged a full practice on Friday. He's lost some of the mobility he showed early in the season, and he looked a bit ginger in clips from Thursday's session. His white-hot passing efficiency has cooled off as well. In a tough matchup against the Texans, Jones profiles as a shaky low-end QB1 this week. |

Indianapolis Colts QB Daniel Jones (fibula) was limited in practice on Wednesday, Nov. 26.
| Footballguys view: Jones was banged up against the Chiefs last week. This week, the Colts are playing a terrific Texans defense. Jones is a QB2 for most Fantasy GMs as he should struggle under duress early and often on Sunday. |

Colts | Ashton Dulin to miss time Mon Nov 24, 02:41 PM
Indianapolis Colts WR Ashton Dulin (hamstring) is expected to miss at least a week because of a hamstring injury, according to head coach Shane Steichen.
| Footballguys view: Dulin is behind Michael Pittman Jr., Alec Pierce, and Josh Downs on the depth chart, but sees playing time each week and provides a steady presence at the receiver position in the run game. He's caught 5-of-8 passes this season for 106 yards, including a 48-yard reception on Sunday against Kansas City. Without Dulin, Laquon Treadwell is the next man up at wide receiver on the 53-man roster. On the practice squad at wideout are rookies Coleman Own and Eli Pancol. |

Colts | Alec Pierce held to one catch Sun Nov 23, 06:03 PM
Indianapolis Colts WR Alec Pierce caught one pass for 26 yards against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 12. He was targeted two times during the game.
| Footballguys view: Pierce was leveling off as a high ceiling WR3/Flex play functioning as the top deep threat in what was one of the best offenses in the league. The Colts offense has slowed down in recent weeks, and Pierce was a lineup liability with the team going conservative to protect a lead that did hold up. Pierce isn't a good start in Week 13 against the Texans, but should be held unless there is a very compelling name on the waiver wire. |
Colts | Michael Pittman finds end zone Sun Nov 23, 05:57 PM
Indianapolis Colts WR Michael Pittman Jr. caught five passes for 27 yards and one touchdown against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 12. He was targeted eight times during the game.
| Footballguys view: Pittman was on a fantasy tear from Weeks 7-9, but his ceiling has fallen significantly since Daniel Jones has started showing cracks in his game. He is still worth a WR3/Flex play against the Texans in Week 13, but that might be all he is down the stretch unless Jones reverses his negative momentum coming out of the excruciating overtime loss to the Chiefs. |

| Footballguys view: Dulin suffered a hamstring injury during the second half of Sunday's game. He was listed as questionable to return, but did not. We'll monitor as developments warrant. The Colts play the Texans in Week 13. |

Colts | Jonathan Taylor held to 66 total yards Sun Nov 23, 05:35 PM
Indianapolis Colts RB Jonathan Taylor rushed for 58 yards on 16 carries against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 12. He also caught two passes for eight yards during the game.
| Footballguys view: Taylor was held down all day, and most importantly on third down to open overtime, which effectively ended the Colts chances to win at Kansas City. The Colts will need Taylor to come up big to win a big divisional game against a stifling Texans pass defense in Week 13. |

Colts | Daniel Jones throws two touchdowns Sun Nov 23, 05:23 PM
Indianapolis Colts QB Daniel Jones went 19-for-31 for 181 yards and two touchdowns against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 12. He also rushed for 16 yards on three carries during the game.
| Footballguys view: Jones started this game playing very well, but was impotent and generated almost no offense in the second half. He didn't make any huge mistakes, but did throw a ball late in the fourth quarter that could have been picked and cost his team that game. The Colts offense has a tough matchup against the Texans next week. Jones is probably best left on your bench, and he might not be a good start again until Week 16 against San Francisco. |

Colts | Indy showing interest in keeping Alec Pierce Sat Nov 15, 11:33 AM
The Indianapolis Colts are opening up to the possibility of signing WR Alec Pierce to a contract extension, according to ESPN.com's Stephen Holder. According to multiple sources, the Colts had decided long ago not to re-sign Pierce after the 2025 season because it was not considered financially prudent. The team had drafted WR Adonai Mitchell in 2024 with the intention of having him eventually replace Pierce. However, Mitchell displayed inconsistency during his time in Indianapolis and was traded to the New York Jets earlier this month, while Pierce has.
| Footballguys view: Pierce is one of the best deep threats in the NFL, and that works wonders when you can play-action pass the way the Colts can. He's been productive this year regardless of the way the game unfolds, showing he's more than a player they turn to only when playing from behind. Pierce is a WR3/flex option when the Colts come back from their Week 11 bye. |

Colts | Josh Downs quiet in Week 10 Sun Nov 9, 01:30 PM
Indianapolis Colts WR Josh Downs registered just a single 3-yard catch on two targets in Week 10 against the Atlanta Falcons, while recording three punt returns fort 32 yards.
| Footballguys view: Downs seemed to be established as a frequent target for Daniel Jones in recent weeks, so this was a letdown. He's better as a depth piece for your fantasy team, but is definitely worth carrying through his bye, especially in PPR leagues. |

Colts | Michael Pittman Jr. disappoints in Week 10 Sun Nov 9, 01:27 PM
Indianapolis Colts WR Michael Pittman Jr. posted two receptions for just 19 yards on two targets in Week 10 against the Atlanta Falcons in Berlin.
| Footballguys view: Pittman was overshadowed by Alec Pierce and Tyler Warren on a day when the Colts only threw 25 times because Jonathan Taylor took over in the second half. He was coming off of three strong WR1 games in a row, so we'll forgive Pittman going into his bye. |
Colts | Tyler Warren just misses century mark Sun Nov 9, 01:23 PM
Indianapolis Colts TE Tyler Warren registered team highs with eight catches, 99 yards and 10 targets in Week 10 against the Atlanta Falcons in Berlin. The catch, yardage and target totals were each career highs, too.
| Footballguys view: The Steelers defense focused on Warren and limited him to 26 yards on five catches. Warren showed why that was wise when he came through again and again for Daniel Jones in a back and forth game that was marred by two early Jones turnovers. Warren goes into the bye a strong TE1 with a sky high ceiling in dynasty leagues. |
