Indianapolis Colts WR Josh Downs (calf) fully participated in practice Friday, Nov. 22, and is not on the injury report for Week 12.

Huddle Up: Downs seems to be dealing with a minor injury and should not have any limitations this week. He has posted at least 60 yards in each of the last four games and has been targeted at least nine times in three of those games. He should be a starting option in all fantasy leagues.

Indianapolis Colts WR Michael Pittman Jr. (back) fully participated in practice Friday, Nov. 22, and is not on the injury report for Week 12.

Huddle Up: Pittman has been dealing with the back injury for a while but will be on the field against the Detroit Lions this week. He should see a handful of targets and can be at least a flex option in fantasy leagues.

Posted 11/20/2024 8:48 pm GMT

Indianapolis Colts WR Michael Pittman Jr. (back) fully participated in practice Wednesday, Nov. 20. The Colts did not hold a practice Wednesday, so this is an estimation.

Huddle Up: Pittman returned to the lineup last week and should see his normal workload in Week 12. He has posted at least 50 yards in only one of his last six games but can still be at least a flex option in fantasy leagues.

Adonai Mitchell - WR

Posted 11/17/2024 9:39 pm GMT

Indianapolis Colts WR Adonai Mitchell caught one pass for 33 yards against the New York Jets in Week 11. He was targeted two times during the game.

Huddle Up: Mitchell was coming off his best game of the season last week but received only two targets during the game. He has caught at least three passes in only two games this season and can be avoided in fantasy leagues.

Posted 11/17/2024 9:38 pm GMT

Indianapolis Colts WR Michael Pittman Jr. caught five passes for 46 yards against the New York Jets in Week 11. He was targeted eight times during the game.

Huddle Up: Pittman led the team in targets this week but was not able to make a big play in the passing game. He will continue to see a good amount of targets each game and can be a starting option in most leagues next week.

Alec Pierce - WR

Posted 11/17/2024 9:16 pm GMT

Indianapolis Colts WR Alec Pierce caught three passes for 74 yards against the New York Jets in Week 11. He was targeted four times during the game.

Huddle Up: Pierce has been a bit inconsistent this season but has played well recently with 155 yards total over the last two games. He is a deep threat for the Colts and can be a flex option in most leagues.

Posted 11/17/2024 9:10 pm GMT

Indianapolis Colts WR Josh Downs caught five passes for 84 yards and one touchdown against the New York Jets in Week 11. He was targeted five times during the game.

Huddle Up: Downs has become a focal point in the passing game this season and has posted at least 70 yards in three of the last four games. He should receive a good amount of targets next week and can be a starting option in all fantasy leagues.

Jonathan Taylor - RB

Posted 11/17/2024 9:05 pm GMT

Indianapolis Colts RB Jonathan Taylor rushed for 57 yards on 24 carries against the New York Jets in Week 11. He also caught one pass for three yards during the game.

Huddle Up: Taylor was not able to find a lot of success against the Jets but received at least 20 carries for the fifth time in the last six games. He will continue to be a big part of the Colts offense and should be a weekly starting option in all leagues.

Anthony Richardson - QB

Posted 11/17/2024 9:00 pm GMT

Indianapolis Colts QB Anthony Richardson went 20-for-30 for 272 yards and one touchdown against the New York Jets in Week 11. He also rushed for 32 yards and two touchdowns on 10 carries during the game.

Huddle Up: Richardson regained his starting job this week and posted his season high in passing yards with 272 yards. He will be facing a good Detroit Lions defense next week but could be a low-end No. 1 quarterback in deeper leagues.

Indianapolis Colts WR Michael Pittman Jr. (back) fully participated in practice Friday, Nov. 15, and is not on the injury report for Week 11.

Huddle Up: Pittman is expected to return after a one-game absence and should be one of the main options in the passing game for the Colts. He can be a starting option in all fantasy leagues.

Posted 11/14/2024 8:45 pm GMT

Indianapolis Colts WR Michael Pittman Jr. (back) fully participated in practice Thursday, Nov. 14.

Huddle Up: Pittman should be available for the Week 11 game and likely will be a big part of the passing game with Anthony Richardson back in the lineup. He should be a starting option in all fantasy leagues.

Indianapolis Colts WR Michael Pittman Jr. (back) fully participated in practice Wednesday, Nov. 13.

SOURCE: NFL Network - Tom Pelissero

Huddle Up: Pittman was not available for the Week 10 game but seems to have a good chance to return to the lineup this week. Fantasy players can keep an eye on the situation during the week but can consider him a starting fantasy option if he is active for the game.

Anthony Richardson - QB

Posted 11/13/2024 4:49 pm GMT

Indianapolis Colts QB Anthony Richardson will start in Week 11 against the New York Jets and be the starter for the rest of the season.

Huddle Up: Joe Flacco had a nice run up until the last two weeks. A-Rich has a cannon, but his decision making has been less than desirable. He has the potential to be a top-12 option the rest of the way, though. Pick him up if you need a backup with upside or you're playing the matchups.

Joe Flacco - QB

Posted 11/11/2024 7:34 pm GMT

Indianapolis Colts QB Joe Flacco will remain the starter for the Week 11 game against the New York Jets, head coach Shane Steichen said Monday, Nov. 11.

SOURCE: CBS 4 Indianapolis - Mike Chappell

Huddle Up: Flacco has struggled in his two starts since taking over for Anthony Richardson, and the matchup against the Jets doesn't make things much easier. He's a streaming option in favorable matchups, but he has a low ceiling against stronger defenses like New York. Consider him a QB2 this week.

Adonai Mitchell - WR

Posted 11/11/2024 12:12 am GMT

Indianapolis Colts WR Adonai Mitchell was good for six receptions for 71 yards on six targets in Week 10 against the Buffalo Bills.

Huddle Up: The rookie, sometimes called "A.D", recorded career bests for catches and yardage totals in this one. He is simply a name to file away and remember going forward, as the Colts still have Josh Downs, Alec Pierce and Michael Pittman Jr., when the latter is healthy.

Posted 11/11/2024 12:04 am GMT

Indianapolis Colts WR Josh Downs ended up with seven receptions for 72 yards on 10 targets in Week 10 against the Buffalo Bills.

Huddle Up: Downs has had a nice connection with veteran QB Joe Flacco. He remains a solid WR2 in all PPR fantasy formats, with slightly lesser appear in standard formats. The Colts travel to meet the New York Jets in Week 11.

Alec Pierce - WR

Posted 11/10/2024 11:58 pm GMT

Indianapolis Colts WR Alec Pierce ended up with four receptions for a team-high 81 yards and a touchdown on seven targets in Week 10 against the Buffalo Bills.

Huddle Up: Pierce has been a boom or bust fantasy option this season, posting some big-time stat lines and a bunch of stinkers. Proceed with caution with Pierce, as he looks like a WR2 in some weeks, and barely a low-end WR4 or flex option in others.

Jonathan Taylor - RB

Posted 11/10/2024 11:39 pm GMT

Indianapolis Colts RB Jonathan Taylor rushed 21 times for 114 yards in Week 10 against the Buffalo Bills while adding two receptions for eight yards on four targets.

Huddle Up: It was Taylor's fourth 100-yard game of the season, although he did fail to get into the end zone in consecutive games for the first time this season. Taylor is a bona fide RB1 in all fantasy leagues right now, but he does have a tougher matchup in Week 11 on the road against the New York Jets.

Posted 11/08/2024 6:33 pm GMT

Indianapolis Colts WR Michael Pittman Jr. (back, finger) did not practice all week and has been ruled out for Week 10 versus the Buffalo Bills.

SOURCE: Around The NFL

Huddle Up: While Pittman's absence would usually mean good things for Alec Pierce and Adonai Mitchell, the Bills have been particularly good against perimeter receivers. Thus, Indianapolis will rely heavily on Jonathan Taylor to take advantage of a soft run defense. Josh Downs should push for 10-plus targets as well. It should surprise no one if Downs sees enough volume to push for low-end WR1 numbers this week.

Indianapolis Colts WR Michael Pittman Jr. (back, finger) did not practice for a second consecutive day on Thursday, Nov. 7.

Huddle Up: Pittman has been gutting out his back issue for several weeks, but he has not been the same receiver the Colts have become accustomed to seeing over the last few seasons. This is also the first time he has started the practice week with back-to-back DNPs since Week 6, so the dislocated finger he suffered in Week 9 might be finally what causes him to miss a game. If Pittman is sidelined for Week 10, Josh Downs would almost certainly have to become a full-time player and could knock on the low-end WR1 door against the Buffalo Bills.

Posted 11/06/2024 9:02 pm GMT

Indianapolis Colts WR Michael Pittman Jr. (back, finger) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Nov. 6.

Huddle Up: Pittman probably will return later in the week, but fantasy players can monitor the situation over the next few days. He has been held to under 20 yards in each of his last two games but should see a good amount of targets in Week 10. He can be at least a flex option in fantasy leagues.

Posted 11/04/2024 3:44 am GMT

Indianapolis Colts WR Michael Pittman Jr. had a single 14-yard reception on four targets in Week 9 against the Minnesota Vikings.

Huddle Up: Pittman had trouble getting on the same page with Anthony Richardson when he was starter, but he had a nice rapport with Joe Flacco. The veteran was back under center, but Pittman couldn't jell with Flacco on SNF, either. At this point, it's very difficult to trust Pittman outside of the very deepest of fantasy leagues heading into Week 11 against the Buffalo Bills.

Alec Pierce - WR

Posted 11/04/2024 3:39 am GMT

Indianapolis Colts WR Alec Pierce registered three catches for 41 yards on three targets in Week 9 against the Minnesota Vikings.

Huddle Up: Pierce had managed just three receptions for 26 yards in the previous three games, so he has a ways to go before fantasy managers outside of deeper leagues can trust him again.

Posted 11/04/2024 3:36 am GMT

Indianapolis Colts WR Josh Downs finished with six receptions for 60 yards on nine targets in Week 9 against the Minnesota Vikings.

Huddle Up: Downs has 10 receptions for 169 yards and a score on 18 targets in the past two games. He has really jelled nicely with Joe Flacco, and he is a solid WR3 or flex fantasy option as long as the veteran Flacco is under center. The Colts meet the Buffalo Bills in Week 11.

Jonathan Taylor - RB

Posted 11/04/2024 3:31 am GMT

Indianapolis Colts RB Jonathan Taylor rushed 13 times for just 48 yards in Week 9 against the Minnesota Vikings, while posting three receptions for 11 yards on five targets.

Huddle Up: Taylor had a difficult time find open spaces against a sturdy Vikings defense. He remains a must-start fantasy option heading into Week 10 against the Buffalo Bills despite the mediocre performance.

Joe Flacco - QB

Posted 11/04/2024 3:28 am GMT

Indianapolis Colts QB Joe Flacco completed 16-of-27 passes for 179 yards, no touchdowns and one interception in Week 9 against the Minnesota Vikings, while running twice for minus-1 yard with one fumble lost.
