Tyler Warren Tyler Warren Added to injury report, questionable
Fri, Oct 16, 2026, 2:57 PM
Warren (groin) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Titans after being added to the practice report Friday as a limited participant.
Analysis: Warren dealt with a groin injury in August, so this could be a recurrence rather than a new issue. Kevin Bowen notes that Warren grimaced after a red-zone rep at Friday's practice, but there hasn't been any comment from team or player about what happened and whether the tight end is expected to play Sunday. The only good news for Warren's fantasy managers is that the Colts and Titans are scheduled for an early afternoon kickoff at 1:00 p.m. ET. |
Ashton Dulin Ashton Dulin Still not practicing Thursday
Thu, Oct 15, 2026, 6:07 PM
Dulin (hamstring) did not participate at practice Thursday.
Analysis: Dulin sat out Sunday's game at Pittsburgh due to a hamstring injury, and he now appears to be trending towards missing a second game because of it. Unless he's able to return to practice in some capacity Friday, it's unlikely he'll be available in Week 6 versus the Titans. |
Josh Downs Josh Downs Back to full participation Thursday
Thu, Oct 15, 2026, 2:55 PM
Downs (rest/hamstring) upgraded to full participation at Thursday's practice.
Analysis: Downs was listed as limited Wednesday due to rest and a hamstring injury. The inclusion of rest in the reason for his limitations suggested the wide receiver wasn't dealing with a significant injury, but it's still encouraging to see that notion confirmed one day later with Downs' return to full participation. Downs is set to maintain a prominent role in Indianapolis' passing game Sunday against the 0-5 Titans. |
Alec Pierce Alec Pierce Progressing in recovery
Wed, Oct 14, 2026, 7:54 PM
Pierce was spotted without a cast on his left ankle/heel Wednesday, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: It's a sign that Pierce is progressing in his recovery from a left heel injury that he aggravated during the Colts' Week 2 overtime loss to the Chiefs. The earliest he is eligible to return from injured reserve is Week 7 against the Vikings, and while Pierce opted for rehab and surgery, Boyd believes that the fifth-year wide receiver is not close to a return. Josh Downs popped up on Wednesday's injury report with a hamstring injury, so Keenan Allen could be the Colts' top wide receiver for Sunday's AFC South showdown against the Titans. |
Darius Slayton Darius Slayton Practices in full Wednesday
Wed, Oct 14, 2026, 6:19 PM
Slayton (knee) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.
Analysis: Slayton popped up on Friday's injury practice due to a knee issue, which ultimately led to him being sidelined for the Colts' 34-22 loss to the Steelers this past Sunday. However, his ability to practice in full puts Slayton on track to make his Colts debut this Sunday against the Titans. The veteran wide receiver may see a decent workload in his Indianapolis debut, given that Josh Downs is working through a hamstring issue. |

Ashton Dulin Ashton Dulin Doesn't practice Wednesday
Wed, Oct 14, 2026, 6:17 PM
Dulin (hamstring) did not participate in Wednesday's practice session.
Analysis: Dulin has not been cleared to practice or play since sustaining a hamstring injury during the Colts' Week 4 win over the Commanders in London. He'll have two more chances to log at least a limited practice ahead of the Colts' AFC South showdown against the Titans on Sunday. |
Keenan Allen Keenan Allen Rests up during Wednesday's practice
Wed, Oct 14, 2026, 3:51 PM
Allen was a non-participant in Wednesday's practice due to rest.
Analysis: Allen previously missed the Colts' Week 4 win over the Commanders due to a groin issue and was listed with the same injury on the team's Week 5 report, but his absence from practice to begin Week 6 looks to be a planned off day. In his return from a one-game absence during this past Sunday's 34-22 loss to the Steelers, Allen logged just 32 of the Colts' 71 offensive snaps, but he could see an uptick in playing time this weekend against the Titans now that he's further removed from the groin injury. |
|
Josh Downs Josh Downs Shows up on Week 6 injury report
Wed, Oct 14, 2026, 3:45 PM
Downs was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice due to a hamstring injury and rest.
Analysis: Per Stephen Holder of ESPN.com, Downs was able to take part in individual drills during the portion of practice that was open to the media, which suggests that his hamstring injury isn't an overly serious one. The fact that Downs' limitations Wednesday were also attributed to rest is another positive sign that he'll be ready to play Sunday against the Titans. The wideout will still likely need to upgrade to full practice participation by Friday to avoid carrying an injury designation into the weekend. |

Keenan Allen Keenan Allen Not practicing Wednesday
Wed, Oct 14, 2026, 1:18 PM
Allen (groin) isn't practicing Wednesday, Nathan Brown of The Indianapolis Star reports.
Analysis: Allen sat out the Colts' Week 4 win over the Commanders due to a groin issue, but he was cleared to play in this past Sunday's 34-22 loss to the Steelers after practicing in a limited fashion Wednesday and Thursday before practicing fully Friday. Though he's off the field to begin Week 6 prep, Allen isn't necessarily dealing with a setback coming out of the loss to Pittsburgh and may just be getting a maintenance day. Allen played less than half of the Colts' offensive snaps in his return to action in Week 5, but so long as he resumes practicing by the end of the week, he'll likely be ready to handle a larger workload Sunday versus the Titans. |
Pharaoh Brown Pharaoh Brown Signed to 53-man roster Tuesday
Tue, Oct 13, 2026, 4:17 PM
Brown was signed to the 53-man roster Tuesday.
Analysis: Brown is currently listed on the depth chart behind Tyler Warren, Mo Alie-Cox and Drew Ogletree, so it doesn't appear he will have a prominent role anytime soon. The 32-year-old has played for the Browns, Texans, Patriots, Seahawks and Cardinals since entering the NFL in 2017, totaling 74 catches (102 targets) for 752 yards and three touchdowns in 92 regular-season appearances. |

Keenan Allen Keenan Allen Hauls in five passes in return
Mon, Oct 12, 2026, 10:31 PM
Allen caught five of nine targets for 45 yards in Sunday's Week 5 loss to Pittsburgh.
Analysis: Allen missed Week 4 due to a groin injury but was able to return to action Sunday. His nine targets tied for the top mark on the Colts, and his five receptions were second behind tight end Tyler Warren. Allen has been relatively consistent this season with at least five catches in three of his four contests, but he's averaging a meager 8.1 yards per reception, which is on pace for a career low. |
Spencer Shrader Spencer Shrader Responsible for 16 points in Week 5 loss
Mon, Oct 12, 2026, 10:30 AM
Shrader made all five of his field-goal attempts and converted on his lone point-after try during Sunday's 34-22 loss to the Steelers on Sunday.
Analysis: Quarterback Daniel Jones led the Colts on six offensive drives during Sunday's loss, though only one of those drives ended with a touchdown. That meant a busy day for Shrader, who made field goals from 57 and 56 yards in the first half before connecting on three more kicks from 22, 40 and 28 yards in the second. His five made field goals were his most in a game since Week 2 of the 2025 season, and he's attempted at least three field goals in each of the Colts' last four games. His 16 made field goals through five regular-season games leads the NFL, and he also leads all kickers with six made field goals from 50-plus yards. The Colts have a juicy Week 6 matchup against the 0-5 Titans on Oct. 18. |

Josh Downs Josh Downs Hauls in three passes in Week 5 loss
Sun, Oct 11, 2026, 6:56 PM
Downs caught three of six targets for 47 yards in Sunday's 34-22 loss to the Steelers.
Analysis: The fourth-year wideout had the Colts' longest play of the day, a 42-yard connection with Daniel Jones in the second quarter that helped set up the team's only touchdown of the afternoon, but Downs was otherwise held in check. Downs is still looking for his first TD of 2026, and despite being Jones' top healthy WR he's managed just a 20-249-0 line on 34 targets through five games. He'll look to hit paydirt in Week 6 against the winless Titans. |

Tyler Warren Tyler Warren Gets into end zone in strong Week 5 effort
Sun, Oct 11, 2026, 6:51 PM
Warren caught seven of nine targets for 83 yards and added a one-yard touchdown on his only carry in Sunday's 34-22 loss to the Steelers.
Analysis: The second-year tight end led the Colts in catches and receiving yards while tying Keenan Allen for the team lead in targets, and Warren produced Indy's only TD of the game with his goal-line plunge in the second quarter. Warren is seeing strong volume as one of the few pass catchers Daniel Jones can rely on, and through five games he's delivered a 30-213-2 line on 36 targets. Given Jones' lack of options, Warren could be busy again in Week 6 against the winless Titans. |
Daniel Jones Daniel Jones Can't get ball into end zone in loss
Sun, Oct 11, 2026, 6:47 PM
Jones completed 24 of 44 passes for 267 yards without a touchdown or interception and added four rushing yards on three carries in Sunday's 34-22 loss to the Steelers.
Analysis: The Colts' lone TD came on a one-yard plunge by tight end Tyler Warren in the second quarter, and the rest of their points came via five Spencer Shrader field goals as Jones couldn't get the ball into the end zone. Jones still has yet to re-discover the form he displayed prior to the Achilles injury that ended his 2025 campaign, and through five games this season he's managed a weak 3:4 TD:INT and 5.8 YPA, although a depleted WR room is playing a large part in his downturn as well. Jones will try to build some momentum in Week 6 against the winless Titans. |
Jonathan Taylor Jonathan Taylor Stifled by Steelers in Week 5 loss
Sun, Oct 11, 2026, 6:41 PM
Taylor carried the ball 15 times for 45 yards and caught three of four targets for 37 yards in Sunday's 34-22 loss to Pittsburgh.
Analysis: The Steelers were able to keep Taylor from hurting them, and most of the star RB's yardage came on a 24-yard pass from Daniel Jones in the second quarter and a 20-yard run in the fourth, the latter of which helped set up the fifth of Spencer Shrader's five field goals on the afternoon. It's the second time in the last three games that Taylor has fallen short of 90 scrimmage yards, as defenses crowd the box and focus on stopping him while daring the Colts' depleted WR room to beat them over the top. Taylor should be able to find a little more success in Week 6 against the winless Titans. |

Daniel Jones Daniel Jones Getting Allen back in Week 5
Sun, Oct 11, 2026, 11:19 AM
Jones will welcome back Keenan Allen (groin) to his wide-receiver corps in Sunday's Week 5 matchup against the Steelers, as the latter is active for the contest.
Analysis: Jones operated without Allen during a Week 4 win over the Commanders in London, and the veteran quarterback completed just 19 of 34 passes for 143 yards with no touchdowns and one interception while adding a rushing touchdown on four carries. Having the trusted veteran receiver, with whom Jones connected on six occasions for 63 yards and a touchdown the last time Allen was on the field in Week 3 against the Texans, should help prop up the signal-caller's numbers in a matchup versus a Steelers defense that's conceded a 68.4 percent completion rate through four games. |
Available to play versus Steelers
Sun, Oct 11, 2026, 11:07 AM
Ward (groin) is active for Sunday's game against Pittsburgh.
Analysis: Ward ended the practice week Friday by logging a full session, though his participation wasn't enough to avoid a questionable tag. The veteran has since been cleared to play in Week 5, meaning he will start opposite Sauce Gardner. |
Riley Leonard Riley Leonard QB3 again for Week 5
Sun, Oct 11, 2026, 11:02 AM
Leonard (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Steelers, though he is listed as the team's emergency quarterback.
Analysis: Leonard is inactive once again. However, as has been the case in previous weeks, Leonard will be available if Daniel Jones and Anthony Richardson exit the contest due to injury, illness or ejection. |
|
Keenan Allen Keenan Allen Active as expected Sunday
Sun, Oct 11, 2026, 10:44 AM
Allen (groin) is active for Sunday's Week 5 game against the Steelers.
Analysis: The veteran receiver had entered the weekend with optimism surrounding his status for Sunday's game after getting a full practice in Friday, and Allen's availability is now official. Before sitting out Indianapolis' Week 4 victory over the Commanders in London, Allen put together the most productive performance of his brief Colts tenure, posting a 6-63-1 line on nine targets during a Week 3 win over the Texans. In his return Sunday against Pittsburgh, Allen is expected to slide back into his usual No. 2 receiver role alongside Josh Downs. |
