Indianapolis Colts

Indianapolis Colts running back Evan Hull carried the ball eight times for 16 yards and a touchdown in the team's loss to the Denver Broncos. Hull also reeled in his only target for an additional 15 yards through the air. Hull led all of Indy's running backs in touches, seeing one more carry than Tyler Goodson. Hull is currently listed as the RB4 on the team's depth chart, and with an injury to Trey Sermon, he will try to climb further up the depth chart to potentially land the RB2 role in the offense. Unless he finds himself in the mix for the RB2 role behind Jonathan Taylor, Hull will be off the fantasy radar in 2024.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver D.J. Montgomery reeled in two of his four targets for 45 yards in the team's loss on Sunday, leading all Colts' pass-catchers. Montgomery saw increased playing time as the Colts' starters and second-stringers played sparingly in the first half, allowing some players deeper on the depth chart to get some reps. Montgomery will continue to fight for a spot on the 53-man roster and is off the radar from a fantasy perspective.

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson completed two of his four passes for 25 yards in the team's loss to the Denver Broncos. He also ran the ball once for an additional yard on the ground. Richardson and most of the Colts' offensive starters played just the first two drives in today's matchup before being taken out. With his strong arm, rushing upside, and sound offensive scheme, Richardson is a high-end QB1 in fantasy for 2024.

Indianapolis Colts running back Tyler Goodson ran the ball seven times for 15 yards and scored a touchdown in the team's preseason loss against the Denver Broncos. Goodson also caught both of his targets for just one extra yard through the air. Goodson was featured early in the game, seeing touches directly after the Colts' starters played the opening drive. With Trey Sermon suffering an injury in today's game. Goodson will continue to compete for the RB2 role, as he's currently slated to be the RB3 in Indy's offense. Depending on the severity of Sermon's injury, Goodson could have some fantasy relevancy as Jonathan Taylor's handcuff but would be largely off the radar otherwise.

The Indianapolis Colts have ruled out running back Trey Sermon (hamstring) due to a hamstring injury sustained during Sunday's preseason game against the Broncos. Sermon, who saw his first action in the game's third series while Jonathan Taylor played the first two, recorded one reception for 12 yards but had no carries. The injury likely occurred during special teams play. The backup running back role behind Taylor was expected to be highly competitive at the Colts' training camp, but Sermon appeared to have secured the position. Head coach Shane Steichen had praised Sermon's performance, particularly his pass protection and vision on runs. With Sermon sidelined, Tyler Goodson has moved ahead of 2023 draft pick Evan Hull as the next running back in line. While no Colts running back is expected to have a significant fantasy impact as long as Jonathan Taylor remains healthy, the backup role can be valuable. Zack Moss demonstrated this last season, finishing as the No. 28 running back in PPR points per game, showing the potential for substantial fantasy value in the No. 2 spot.
