Indianapolis Colts impending free-agent WR Michael Pittman Jr. agreed to a three-year deal Monday, March 11, with the Colts worth a maximum of $71 million. The deal includes $46 million guaranteed.
Huddle Up: Pittman was the WR14 in PPR leagues last year, and as his quarterback situation improves, his fantasy standing could blossom as well. He's a great WR2 for now.

Indianapolis Colts LB Zaire Franklin agreed to a three-year, $31.26 million extension Monday, March 11.
Huddle Up: He may not carry a ton of name value on the surface, but if you're in an IDP league, you know he's a legit LB1. He had an astounding 179 total tackles last season and was ranked No. 7 at the LB position despite missing a game.

Cleveland Browns impending free-agent QB Joe Flacco said he is he interested in re-signing with the Browns this offseason but also will look for a team that will give him the chance to play in 2024.
Huddle Up: Flacco likely will test free agency to see if he has a chance to compete for a starting job with a team this offseason, but it seems like there is a good chance he remains with the Browns if he must take a backup role. He played well as the starter for the Browns this past season but will not have fantasy value if he does not start for a team.

Indianapolis Colts QB Anthony Richardson (shoulder) is making good progress in his recovery but there is no timetable for his return, according to head coach Shane Steichen. He has been able to throw as part of his rehab.
Huddle Up: Richardson probably will not do a lot during offseason workouts but probably will be ready for the start of training camp. He was valuable fantasy performer before the injury and likely will be a low-end No. 1 quarterback next season if healthy.

Cleveland Browns impending free-agent QB Joe Flacco is set to become an unrestricted free agent at the start of the new league year on March 13, but a return to Cleveland reportedly remains his first choice. To that end, his agent and the team met with each other at the 2024 NFL Scouting Combine last week to discuss the possibility of him playing with the Browns for another season.

Indianapolis Colts QB Anthony Richardson (shoulder) is making good progress in his recovery, but general manager Chris Ballard said there is no timetable for his return.
Huddle Up: Richardson probably will be limited during offseason workouts but probably will be available for training camp. He was playing very well before the injury and can be a No. 1 quarterback in most fantasy leagues next season.

Cleveland Browns impending free-agent QB Joe Flacco is unlikely to return to the Browns next season, according to Zac Jackson of The Athletic.
Huddle Up: Flacco was the QB5 in one fewer game over the last 5 weeks of the season. If he has the chance to start for someone as a bridge quarterback, he'll be sought after in two-QB leagues.

Indianapolis Colts QB Anthony Richardson (shoulder) resumed throwing on Tuesday, Feb. 13.
Huddle Up: Richardson underwent season-ending shoulder surgery after playing only four games as a rookie. The No. 4 overall pick told reporters in December that he is "progressing way faster than everyone thought" he would. Given the timing of his injury and surgery, it would seem reasonable to expect him back ahead of training camp. Assuming he has learned his lesson and does a better job of avoiding contact as a NFL sophomore, fantasy managers should feel great about him being a high-end QB1 in 2024.

Cleveland Browns impending free-agent QB Joe Flacco said he wants to play in the NFL next season.
Huddle Up: Flacco played very well after taking over as the Browns starting quarterback, but it is not known if he will be able to find a starting job next season. He could be a No. 2 fantasy quarterback in some leagues next season if he starts for a team.

Indianapolis Colts impending free-agent WR Michael Pittman Jr. likely will be a candidate for the franchise tag if the two sides are not able to reach a long-term contract, in the opinion of ColtsWire's Cody Manning.
Huddle Up: Pittman is one of the better receivers in the NFL and likely will remain with the Colts for at least one more season. He will continue to be the focal point in the passing game and will be a weekly starting option in all fantasy leagues.

Indianapolis Colts QB Anthony Richardson (shoulder) said he doesn't need to overhaul his style of play despite suffering an injury last year. "But I don't think I have to change the way I play," Richardson said. "Just being a little smarter."
Huddle Up: Richardson battled injuries throughout his rookie season and only appeared in four games. He did flash his upside in his limited action, accounting for seven total touchdowns with four coming on the ground. Richardson is an injury risk, but his potential as a runner gives him a QB1 ceiling.

Cleveland Browns QB Joe Flacco (calf) fully participated in practice Thursday, Jan. 11, and is not on the injury report for the Wild Card playoff game.
Huddle Up: Flacco has been outstanding since becoming the starter for the Browns. He will have all of his pass catchers available this week and can be a starting option in most fantasy leagues.

Indianapolis Colts QB Anthony Richardson (shoulder) is scheduled to begin throwing next month, he told reporters Thursday, Jan. 11.
Huddle Up: Richardson missed the majority of his rookie season after undergoing surgery to repair a Grade 3 AC joint sprain during the first month of the season. Assuming his rehab goes well this offseason, Richardson should be viewed as a fringe QB1 option with high upside if he's able to stay on the field.

Cleveland Browns QB Joe Flacco (calf) fully participated in practice Wednesday, Jan. 10.
Huddle Up: Flacco has been playing very well since taking over the starting job but may not have Amari Cooper available for the playoff game. He can still be considered a low-end No. 1 quarterback in most fantasy leagues this week.

Indianapolis Colts RB Jonathan Taylor (heel) exited the Week 18 game against the Houston Texans with a heel injury and is questionable to return.
Huddle Up: If the Colts advance to the playoffs and Taylor isn't available, Zack Moss would become a potential star for fantasy playoff contests.

Cleveland Browns QB Joe Flacco will be among the team's starters to rest in Week 18, head coach Kevin Stefanski said on Wednesday, Jan. 3. Instead, QB Jeff Driskel will start.
Huddle Up: Flacco has been a revelation for the Browns since coming aboard and ranks as QB2 overall since Week 13. It makes sense to rest him with the team's playoff seed locked in. Driskel is not a viable starting option in Week 18.

Indianapolis Colts WR Michael Pittman Jr. (concussion, shoulder) is active for Week 17's game versus the Las Vegas Raiders.
Huddle Up: Pittman had been listed as questionable on the injury report after logging one limited practice session and two full sessions during the week. He is the main receiving option in Indianapolis' passing game and should be a starting option in all fantasy leagues.

Indianapolis Colts WR Michael Pittman Jr. (concussion, shoulder) fully participated in practice Friday, Dec. 29, but is listed as questionable for Week 17.
Huddle Up: Pittman has cleared concussion protocol and should be on the field for Week 17 as long as he does not suffer a setback in the next few days. He is the main option in the passing game for the Colts and should be a starting option in all leagues if active.

Indianapolis Colts WR Michael Pittman Jr. (concussion) cleared the league's concussion protocol and is on track to play in Week 17 against the Las Vegas Raiders.
Huddle Up: Much like the run defense, the Raiders' pass defense has taken a big step forward since interim head coach Antonio Pierce took over for former head coach Josh McDaniels. Pittman is too good and too much of a target hog to sit in fantasy, but his floor might be considerably lower in this matchup than it would have been if these teams had played in the first half of the season. Expect Pittman to post a serviceable low-end WR2 effort this weekend.

Cleveland Browns QB Joe Flacco (calf) fully participated in practice Wednesday, Dec. 27, and is not on the injury report for Week 17. The Browns did not hold a practice Wednesday, so his practice participation is an estimation.
Huddle Up: Flacco has thrown at least two touchdowns in the four games he has started this season but has thrown five interceptions in the last two games. He should still be a starting option in two-quarterback leagues but is a risky option in standard leagues.

Indianapolis Colts WR Michael Pittman Jr. (concussion, shoulder) was limited during practice Wednesday, Dec. 27. The Colts did not hold a practice Wednesday, so this is an estimation.
Huddle Up: Pittman is reportedly making progress in his recovery but still needs to receive medical clearance before he can play again. Fantasy players should monitor the situation because he can be a starting option in leagues if he is active for the game.
