Rotoworld Player News

Ashton Dulin

IND Wide Receiver #16

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Ashton Dulin (hamstring) is not on Indianapolis’ final Week 7 injury report.

With Tyler Warren down, Dulin probably figures to join Keenan Allen and Josh Downs as one of Indianapolis’ three main receivers. He has some desperation play viability in deeper leagues.
Sauce Gardner

IND Cornerback #1

Sauce Gardner (calf) will not play in Week 7 against the Vikings.

Gardner was never expected to play this week after it was announced on Monday that he would be week-to-week with his calf injury. His absence could be a good sign for Vikings pass-catchers this week in what should be a plus matchup against a Colts defense that ranks 14th in fantasy points allowed to receivers this season. In addition to Gardner, the Colts also ruled out WR Anthony Gould (concussion).
Tyler Warren

IND Tight End #84

Tyler Warren (groin) will not play in Week 7 against the Vikings.

Warren was a DNP throughout the week and has now been ruled out for this week’s game against the Vikings. This will be the second straight missed game for Warren, who first suffered the injury in last Friday’s practice. The Vikings have allowed the fewest fantasy points to opposing tight ends this season, meaning fantasy managers are best off avoiding Will Mallory and Mo Alie-Cox as streaming options this week.
Anthony Richardson

IND Quarterback #5

FOX59’s Tyler Haughn reports Colts QB Anthony Richardson was charged with misdemeanor possession of marijuana earlier this week.

According to reports, Richardson was stopped on October 12th for having a registration on his car that had expired and was assigned to a different vehicle. The officer reported noticing the “odor of marijuana” coming from Richardson’s car, and the former first-round pick admitted to smoking in the car; a “small mason jar containing a substance believed to be marijuana and an opened bag of THC-infused gummies” were found in his vehicle during a search. Richardson is scheduled to have a bench trial on January 4th, 2027. While the NFL no longer suspends players for testing positive for THC, it’s possible Richardson faces some kind of penalty from the league with this being a legal issue.
Quenton Nelson

IND Guard #56

ESPN’s Stephen Holder listed QuentonNelson and DeForest Buckner as potential trade options for the Colts.

Holder writes that “trade speculation is swirling” around Buckner and notes that Nelson is in the final year of his deal, potentially providing motivation for the Colts to move him. Neither player had much to say when asked about a potential trade, but per Holder, “it is widely expected that significant organizational changes might be coming after the eventual hire of a new general manager.” Stay tuned.
Jonathan Taylor

IND Running Back #28

ESPN’s Stephen Holder reports that several teams are interested in trading for Jonathan Taylor.

According to Holder, multiple teams would be open to trading for Taylor, but it remains unclear whether the Colts are ready to be sellers before the trade deadline. Colts GM Chris Ballard was recently fired, and “it is widely expected that significant organizational changes might be coming” after the eventual hiring of a new general manager.
Seth McGowan

should be stashed on benches at this time.
Tyler Warren

IND Tight End #84

Tyler Warren (groin) did not practice Thursday.

He’s firmly on the wrong side of questionable. The media attention in Indianapolis this week has been spent on the firing of Chris Ballard rather than chasing down Warren’s status, but he does seem very unlikely to play and hasn’t practiced since last Thursday.
Sauce Gardner

IND Cornerback #1

Sauce Gardner (calf) did not practice Wednesday.

Gardner is considered week-to-week because of the calf strain he suffered in Week 6. He’s not expected to miss an “extended period”, but it’s safe to assume Gardner is out for Week 7. Maybe that will help kickstart the Vikings’ sluggish passing attack, though we doubt it.
Tyler Warren

IND Tight End #84

Tyler Warren (groin) did not practice Wednesday.

Warren suffered a groin injury during Friday’s practice last week. He was listed as questionable for Sunday’s game. Though he was reportedly considered a game-time decision over the weekend, the Colts shut him down on Sunday. A DNP today suggests he will miss at least one more game. Keenan Allen led the Colts with eight catches for 82 yards last week. He remains an unfortunately viable PPR scam as long as Warren is out versus the Vikings.
Thomas Morstead

IND Punter #7

Colts signed P Thomas Morstead to the practice squad.

Morstead spent 12 years punting for the Saints before making stops with the Jets, Falcons, Dolphins, and 49ers over the last five seasons. The 40-year-old veteran averaged 43.6 yards per punt for San Francisco last year. Current Colts punter Rigoberto Sanchez was injured during a blocked punt in the Colts’ Week 6 loss to the Titans. Morstead joins the Colts’ practice squad as insurance in case Sanchez cannot play Week 7 against the Vikings.
