  Colts | Tyler Warren limited again Thursday as Colts return to the field    Thu Oct 29, 04:00 PM

Colts TE Tyler Warren (groin) was a limited participant again on Thursday, the Colts' first on-field practice of the week after a walkthrough on Wednesday. Warren, who has missed the last two games, was also limited on Wednesday. TE Drew Ogletree (knee) was limited as well ahead of Sunday's game against the Jaguars.

Footballguys view: Warren has been out of action for a couple of games, but this week he's been limited in two days of practice. Another limited practice on Friday isn't total clarity, but a full participation would make it seem like he's ready to return in Week 8. Stay tuned, and check back on Friday to see what Warren's status is.

  Colts | Tyler Warren estimated as limited after missing two straight games    Wed Oct 28, 03:53 PM

Colts TE Tyler Warren (groin) was listed as a limited participant on Wednesday's practice report. The Colts held only a walkthrough on Wednesday, so the report is an estimation of how players would have participated if practice had happened. Warren missed Sunday's game in Minnesota and was also sidelined for the Week 6 game against the Titans. The Colts visit the Jaguars in Week 8.

  Colts | Jonathan Taylor has not requested a trade, per Shane Steichen    Wed Oct 28, 01:50 PM

Colts RB Jonathan Taylor has not requested a trade, head coach Shane Steichen said on Wednesday.

Footballguys view: Taylor does not need to request a move; teams should be circling around the Colts to see if they can add him via trade. With Quenton Nelson traded to the Seahawks on Tuesday, the floodgates could open as the Colts are sellers. Taylor is still a great back, and he could be a foundational player going forward. However, he could be seen as someone the Colts trade away to get more assets.

  Colts | Jonathan Taylor 'isn't a lock to be traded', currently 'looking like a no'    Tue Oct 27, 03:21 PM

Colts RB Jonathan Taylor "isn't a lock to be traded," and a deal is "as of now, looking like a no."

Footballguys view: The Colts, who dealt OL Quenton Nelson to the Seahawks earlier Tuesday, "surely aren't done" making moves, "but that doesn't mean everything must go," with ESPN's Adam Schefter sharing the same view on Taylor. There are "still two weeks left for things and minds to change" before the trade deadline.

  Colts | Keenan Allen named among Colts players to watch before trade deadline    Tue Oct 27, 12:44 PM

Colts WR Keenan Allen is among the Indianapolis names to watch ahead of the trade deadline. The Colts are willing to listen to offers on everyone after agreeing to trade G Quenton Nelson to the Seahawks on Tuesday.

Footballguys view: Allen has emerged as one of the Colts' most consistent offensive performers in recent weeks. He's been mentioned in reports suggesting the Bills would be interested. Allen is no longer the elite receiver he once was, but he is still a good veteran option and could be a safety net for Josh Allen. Stay tuned.

Colts WR Josh Downs is among the Indianapolis names to watch ahead of the trade deadline. The Colts are willing to listen to offers on everyone after agreeing to trade G Quenton Nelson to the Seahawks on Tuesday.

Footballguys view: ESPN's Adam Schefter points to Downs, DeForest Buckner, and Grover Stewart as players who could potentially be on the move. Downs has fallen short of expectations this season, but that seems more due to overall circumstances than any shortcomings on his part. We'll see if he draws legitimate interest.

  Colts | Steichen has not considered QB change, has 'a lot of faith' in Daniel Jones    Sun Oct 25, 04:11 PM

Colts head coach Shane Steichen said on Sunday that he has not considered a quarterback change because he has "a lot of faith" in QB Daniel Jones. Steichen's comments came after Sunday's 16-10 loss to the Vikings.

Footballguys view: The Colts' season is basically over, so don't be surprised if Steichen's tune changes a little next week unless the Colts can upset the Jaguars. The team might want to see what they have in Anthony Richardson Sr. before hitting the reset button in the offseason. Jones didn't play well against the Vikings, but to be fair to him, most quarterbacks are going to have trouble moving the ball against them this season.

  Colts | Packers, Seahawks, Broncos, Vikings listed as interested in Jonathan Taylor    Sun Oct 25, 10:50 AM

The Packers, Seahawks, Broncos, and Vikings are teams interested in Colts RB Jonathan Taylor, ESPN's Adam Schefter and Ian Rapoport reported Sunday. The Colts will try to win their next three games, against the Vikings, Jaguars, and Cowboys, before the Nov. 10 trade deadline. If that plan does not go well, the Colts could deal resources and build for the future.

Footballguys view: According to the report, the Packers inquired about Taylor (a University of Wisconsin product) in 2023, but the talks went nowhere after the Colts asked for Christian Watson and more. They just got Josh Jacobs back, but have coveted Taylor for a while. The Broncos and Seahawks backfields have been maybe the two most disappointing in the league, while the Vikings are trying to win a Super Bowl with a ball-control/defense-based winning blueprint, so Taylor would make a strength stronger.

  Colts | Colts receiving 'strong trade interest' in DeForest Buckner, Quenton Nelson    Sat Oct 24, 09:32 AM

The Colts have received strong trade interest in DT DeForest Buckner and G Quenton Nelson. No player is expected to be off-limits if Indianapolis decides to sell before the Nov. 10 trade deadline.

Footballguys view: Reporters indicate there are not any talks about trading RB Jonathan Taylor yet. We expect that to change quickly with the trade deadline approaching in a few weeks. There would be at least a few teams interested in a superstar back like Taylor if he's made available. Stay tuned -- we're expecting the Colts to be deal-makers in the near future.

Colts TE Tyler Warren (groin) has been ruled out for Sunday's Week 7 game at the Vikings after not practicing on Friday. With Warren out, TEs Mo Alie-Cox, Drew Ogletree and Will Mallory are expected to see more snaps than normal in a bigger rotation at the position.

  Colts | Tyler Warren ruled out for Sunday vs. Vikings    Fri Oct 23, 12:46 PM

Colts TE Tyler Warren (groin) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Vikings, head coach Shane Steichen said on Friday. Warren did not practice all week, missing Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday sessions.

Footballguys view: We'll get another week without Warren. He suffered the injury in practice leading up to Week 6's game, missed the game, and hasn't practiced since. The Colts face an undefeated Vikings squad this week. Keenan Allen can eat on short targets and has value in PPR leagues as a low-ceiling WR3, but Jonathan Taylor is the only guy with any legitimate value on this roster. Warren will be in the TE1 discussion once he's healthy, and he'll try to return to practice again next week.

  Colts | Multiple teams 'would be open' to trading for Jonathan Taylor    Thu Oct 22, 07:15 PM

Multiple teams would be open to a potential trade for Colts RB Jonathan Taylor, a source told ESPN's Stephen Holder. It remains unclear whether the Colts are ready to unload players before the trade deadline as they plot their next moves after firing GM Chris Ballard.

Footballguys view: Zero surprise here. Taylor is going to be one of the most sought-after players in the trade market. The buyers are out there, and teams like the Broncos could be quite interested in Taylor. We'll see what the Colts can get for the superstar running back who has a contract that runs through his age-29 season (2028).

Colts TE Tyler Warren (groin) was not practicing on Thursday. Warren also did not practice on Wednesday and was inactive for last Sunday's game against the Titans with the groin injury.

Footballguys view: The Colts need to be looking to the future, so there's no need to rush Warren back out there if he's not ready. Warren is a part of the team's future, but many things are up in the air with a team that fired their GM midseason. Without Warren, the Colts would lean on Keenan Allen more like they did a week ago.

  Colts | Jonathan Taylor 'haven't given it any thought' on future, trade deadline    Thu Oct 22, 12:43 PM

Colts RB Jonathan Taylor said on Thursday he has not thought about his future or the trade deadline. "I haven't given it any thought. ... I think it would be a discredit and a disservice to my teammates and this whole organization to think about what could, what should, what may be," Taylor said.

Footballguys view: If Taylor is on the block as the Colts look to the future, several teams would be interested in the superstar running back. The trade deadline is still around a few weeks away, but there might be some activity in the NFL soon. Taylor is going to be a top target, along with Saquon Barkley and Tony Pollard, for teams looking to trade for running back help.

  Colts | Tyler Warren not practicing Wednesday    Wed Oct 21, 02:11 PM

Colts TE Tyler Warren did not practice on Wednesday because of a groin injury. TE Drew Ogletree was also not practicing.

Footballguys view: Warren injured himself last Friday, and he missed the Week 6 contest against the Titans. Missing practice on Wednesday is not a great start to the week, and it might indicate that Warren needs more time to heal. Look for Keenan Allen to get more targets if Warren has to miss another game.

  Colts | Alec Pierce eligible to come off IR but will not practice this week    Mon Oct 19, 02:28 PM

Colts WR Alec Pierce, who is eligible to come off injured reserve this week, will not practice, head coach Shane Steichen said on Monday.

Footballguys view: Pierce is still rehabbing after aggravating his surgically repaired left heel last month. He was in a walking boot in the press box on Sunday, and Steichen said he doesn't expect to see the wideout on the field any time soon. Fantasy investors should share in that expectation. Feel free to move on from Pierce if you haven't already at this point.

  Colts | Colts relieve GM Chris Ballard of his duties    Mon Oct 19, 09:58 AM

The Colts relieved GM Chris Ballard of his duties on Monday. Ballard's tenure produced eight different Week 1 starting quarterbacks from 2017 through 2026: Scott Tolzien, Andrew Luck, Jacoby Brissett, Philip Rivers, Carson Wentz, Matt Ryan, Anthony Richardson (2023 and 2024) and Daniel Jones (2025 and 2026).

  Colts | Colts sticking with Daniel Jones as starter after two-INT loss: 'He's got to play better'    Sun Oct 18, 07:05 PM

Colts head coach Shane Steichen confirmed after Sunday's 26-20 loss to the Titans that QB Daniel Jones will remain the starting quarterback. "I think he knows he's got to play better," Steichen said. Jones went 22-of-42 for 269 yards with a touchdown and two interceptions, including one in the red zone, and now has six interceptions to four touchdowns this season as the Colts fell to 2-4.

Footballguys view: As ESPN.com's Stephen Holder notes, Jones hasn't come close to matching the run he had at the start of last season, which was the basis for the Colts giving him a new deal following his ruptured Achilles in December. Jones had two more interceptions Sunday, giving him nine turnovers, one behind Justin Herbert's league-high 10 (he has three lost fumbles to go with the INTs). The turnovers are undermining offensive consistency, which has been a challenge in itself. With Anthony Richardson Sr. the next man up, it appears the Colts are willing to weather more inconsistency from Jones.

  Colts | Alec Pierce eligible for practice window next week but 'at least a few weeks' from return    Sat Oct 17, 11:55 PM

Colts WR Alec Pierce continues to progress in his recovery from a re-injured heel but is still likely at least a few weeks from returning, though he is eligible to have his 21-day practice window on injured reserve opened next week, NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reported. Pierce re-injured his left heel late in the first quarter of Week 2's Sunday night game against the Chiefs and was placed on injured reserve. The initial expectation was that he would be out closer to midseason, at least six to eight weeks, rather than the four-game IR minimum. Pierce was not seen wearing a cast earlier this week.

  Colts | Colts activate TE Will Mallory off IR with Warren 'questionable'    Sat Oct 17, 01:01 PM

The Colts activated TE Will Mallory off injured reserve on Saturday after opening his 21-day practice window. Mallory had spent the entire season on IR after a thumb injury that cost him the final two preseason games. He has been behind Tyler Warren, Mo Alie-Cox, and Drew Ogletree on the depth chart, but Warren is questionable for Sunday's game against the Titans with a groin injury after being limited in practice on Friday. Mallory led the Colts with six catches for 80 yards in the preseason opener against the Patriots.

Footballguys view: Mallory was expected to be activated soon, so this may have nothing to do with Warren popping up late in the week as questionable with a groin issue, but if Warren can't go vs. the Titans, Mallory will help pick up the slack.

  Colts | Tyler Warren suffers groin injury in practice, questionable vs. Titans    Fri Oct 16, 04:03 PM

Colts TE Tyler Warren suffered a groin injury in practice on Friday. He is now questionable for Sunday's game against the Titans.

Footballguys view: Warren went down with a preseason groin injury but quickly returned to practice and was ready for Week 1. If this is an aggravation of that injury, his outlook for this week could be murky. Warren is coming off his best game of the year and was looking like a TE1 you could trust, but fantasy managers should plan for an alternate. The Colts kick off early, so if he can't go, fantasy managers will have no shortage of options to pivot to.

  Colts | Steichen on releasing Darius Slayton: 'Ultimately, it just didn't work out'    Fri Oct 16, 01:30 PM

Colts head coach Shane Steichen addressed the release of WR Darius Slayton on Friday. "He had some good weeks in practice. Ultimately, it just didn't work out. And I think those (situations) happen," Steichen said. "I got a lot of respect for him, what he's done in this league. And I wish him the best going forward."

Footballguys view: If Slayton can't crack the Colts' barren roster, it could be the end of his road. The Colts have one of the league's worst receiver rooms and will likely seek extra firepower as the trade deadline nears.

Colts WR Keenan Allen was not practicing on Wednesday. The official injury report listed it as a rest day. Allen was listed as questionable with a groin injury for last Sunday's game against the Steelers after a full practice on Friday.

Footballguys view: Allen is a seasoned veteran, so this could be a rest day. He did not play his normal amount of snaps last week in his first week back from a groin injury. However, Allen caught 5-of-9 targets for 45 yards in the Week 5 loss to the Steelers. We like Allen as a WR3/flex play in Week 6.

  Colts | Warren catches 7 passes for 83 yards in loss to Steelers    Sun Oct 11, 04:10 PM

Indianapolis Colts TE Tyler Warren ran 1 time for 1 yard and a touchdown and also caught 7 passes for 83 yards on 9 targets in Sunday's 34-22 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. He was projected for 9.1 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 17.9.

Footballguys view: Warren was clearly the #1 target for Daniel Jones in this game, and the team turned to him as a goal line ballcarrier on a tough afternoon for Jonathan Taylor. He is being used more as a downfield receiver and should be moving up the fantasy tight end ranks ahead of a matchup with the bottom-dwelling Titans.

Colts WR Ashton Dulin (hamstring) is listed as out on the Week 5 injury report. Ashton Dulin did not participate in Friday's practice.

Footballguys view: Dulin quietly tied Laquon Treadwell for the team lead in targets last week. But Keenan Allen could return this week. Allen, Josh Downs, and Tyler Warren would likely be the top pass-catchers. Even if Dulin is active, he's only on the radar in extremely deep leagues.

Colts WR Darius Slayton (knee) is listed as questionable on the Week 5 injury report. Darius Slayton was limited in Friday's practice.

Footballguys view: Nearly the entire Colts receiver room is banged up right now. Slayton's role as a downfield burner will hopefully help fill the gap left by Alec Pierce's absence. But expect him to run a lot of clearout routes and not draw many targets when active. It would be a huge surprise if Slayton found fantasy relevance in Indianapolis this year.

  Colts | Keenan Allen questionable for Week 5 against Steelers    Fri Oct 9, 03:30 PM

Colts WR Keenan Allen (groin) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Steelers. Allen was limited in practice on Wednesday and Thursday.

Footballguys view: Allen missed last week's game, and Laquon Treadwell and Ashton Dulin led the team in targets. The Colts are desperate for receiver help, and a 34-year-old Keenan Allen dealing with a groin injury might be their best short-term option. It's hard to trust anything in this passing offense, especially with a tough matchup against the Steelers. Even if he is active, Allen is a desperation flex.

Indianapolis Colts WR Josh Downs caught 3 passes for 16 yards on 4 targets in Sunday's 30-13 win over the Washington Commanders. He was projected for 13.8 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 3.1.

Footballguys view: This was an immensely disappointing game for Downs to post against a pass defense that had allowed 11 touchdowns in the first three games. Daniel Jones was uneven to start this game, and Jonathan Taylor did most of the damage for the offense. Don't drop Downs with Keenan Allen ailing, but we might have to wait for a good game on our bench before starting him. The Colts travel to Pittsburgh next week.
