Headed for IR
The Colts are in line to place Woods (toe) on season-ending IR, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Woods, who missed all of last year due to repeated hamstring injuries, is now on track to be sidelined for a second straight season due to a turf toe injury that required surgery. In his absence, the Colts will move forward with a TE corps led by Kylen Granson, Mo Alie-Cox, Drew Ogletree and Will Mallory.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
2022
Woods had a promising rookie season in 2022, catching 25 of 40 targets for 312 yards and three touchdowns, which was enough for at least a share of the team lead among tight ends in both categories. He didn’t get a chance to build on that campaign last year, sitting out the entire 2023 season due to a hamstring injury. In Woods’ absence, four Colts tight ends had between 147 and 368 receiving yards, and that group combined to score six touchdowns. All of those players are still around to compete for playing time in 2024, but Woods’ 6-foot-7, 253-pound frame gives him the highest red-zone ceiling of the group, and he’s reportedly healthy heading into training camp.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
On Colts' roster bubble?
In his latest projection, James Boyd of The Athletic has Woods omitted from the Colts' 53-man roster.
ANALYSIS
Boyd has Mo Alie-Cox, Kylen Granson, Will Mallory and Drew Ogletree as the four tight ends to make Indianapolis' final roster, with Woods on the outside looking in. Woods missed the entire 2023 season due to injuries to both hamstrings, but he entered training camp healthy and finished with one catch for 17 yards in the Colts' preseason opener against the Broncos. Woods has two more preseason contests to make a case for himself for the final 53-man roster.
