Colts | Anthony Richardson not expected back Wed Dec 31, 01:04 PM

Indianapolis Colts QB Anthony Richardson (eye) continues to recover from an orbital fracture and an injury to his right eye. He returned to practice in recent weeks, but he remains on the Reserve/Injured list. He is not expected to be activated prior to the Week 18 game against the Houston Texans.

Footballguys view: The future is unknown with the former first-round pick. He's got physical talent, but that's not rare in this league. Richardson needs to stay healthy and prove to himself (and the league) that he can be a franchise quarterback. He's under contract through 2026.

Colts | Seth Henigan could be roster option Tue Dec 30, 11:12 PM

Indianapolis Colts QB Seth Henigan, signed to the practice squad Monday, Dec. 29, could be added to the active roster for the Week 18 regular-season finale against the Houston Texans, but likely only in an emergency role, if at all.

Colts | Riley Leonard to start finale Tue Dec 30, 10:01 AM

Indianapolis Colts QB Riley Leonard will start in Week 18 against the Houston Texans.

Footballguys view: The move to Leonard ends Philip Rivers' run as a starter after coming out of a five-year retirement. Coach Shane Steichen, one of Rivers' closest friends, coaxed Rivers out of retirement because of his intimate knowledge of the offense and leadership capacity. But with the Colts eliminated from playoff contention last weekend, the team had to weigh whether it made sense to continue starting the 44-year-old Rivers. Asked about the prospect of Leonard starting on Sunday, Steichen said, "It will be good for his development." It will be less good for the fantasy outcomes of his supporting cast this week.

Colts | Michael Pittman Jr. slowed by injury Sun Dec 28, 08:47 PM

Indianapolis Colts WR Michael Pittman Jr. (calf) left the Week 17 game against the Jacksonville Jaguars, but he was able to return and finish up the game.

Footballguys view: Pittman's fantasy value has taken a dive since Philip Rivers took over. He returned and finished the day with two catches for 16 yards. His value in 2026 drafts is to be determined as the Colts go into the offseason with a huge question mark at quarterback.

Colts | Will Mallory has single reception Sun Dec 28, 08:46 PM

Colts | Riley Leonard likely to start in Week 18 Sun Dec 28, 11:52 AM

The Indianapolis Colts are likely to start QB Riley Leonard in Week 18's game versus the Houston Texans, after the team was mathematically eliminated from postseason contention Saturday, Dec. 27, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

Footballguys view: Jonathan Taylor is battling with James Cook to win the NFL rushing title, so he may get a lot of run next week, but the Colts chances of beating the Texans with the AFC South champion still undecided will go down with Leonard in at quarterback.

Colts | Big night for Alec Pierce Tue Dec 23, 01:45 AM

Indianapolis Colts WR Alec Pierce tallied four receptions, 86 yards, and two touchdowns in a Week 16 loss to the San Francisco 49ers.

Footballguys view: Pierce's value is now at an all-time high, and with him set to hit free agency this offseason, the Colts will likely have competition to retain him. As A to Z Sports' Destin Adam suggested, Pierce has positioned himself well with the most receiving yards of his career (871) and four touchdowns. He'll also be somebody fantasy investors have great interest in next summer, regardless of landing spot.

Colts | Philip Rivers turns back the clock on MNF Tue Dec 23, 12:59 AM

Indianapolis Colts QB Philip Rivers completed 23 of 35 passes for 277 yards, two touchdowns, and an interception against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 16. With the game out of hand late, Rivers was replaced by QB Riley Leonard on the final drive.

Footballguys view: After Rivers played it close to the vest against Seattle in Week 14 -- in his first game in five years -- he opened things up in a significant way Monday night, pushing the ball farther downfield after averaging just 4.4 yards per attempt in his previous game. Unfortunately, the Colts' defense had its most miserable performance of the season. After starting 2025 at 8-2 and in the conversation among title contenders, Indianapolis has now lost five straight and seems destined to miss the playoffs again. But they're not eliminated yet, so expect Rivers to make another start.
