TE Will Mallory led his position in playing time for the Colts' loss to Tennessee on Sunday while drawing the team's third-most targets. Mallory got six looks but tallied only 2 catches for 21 yards. He watched TE Mo Alie-Cox snag Daniel Jones' only TD pass on Alie-Cox's lone target of the game. TE Pharaoh Brown added a 7-yard catch on his lone target (and lone route). TE Drew Ogletree nearly matched Alie-Cox in playing time, trailing him 12-9 in routes, but drew nary a target.
2026 Fantasy Football Impact: Don't Look to Non-Warren Colts TEs
Mallory's 70.6% route share easily led Colts TEs for the game. (Alie-Cox ran second at 23.5%.) But that fell short of Warren's 86.7% rate through five games.
Mallory's target count also benefited from Jones attempting 42 passes Sunday, his second straight game of 40+ attempts.
Jones' career-low 59.6% completion rate, meanwhile -- including new season lows each of the past three weeks -- is helping no one.
There are probably fantasy formats in which Mallory deserves some interest while Warren's out, but he falls short of being truly target-worthy anywhere.
This was Mallory's first action of the season, to be fair, after he missed the first five games following a preseason thumb injury.
Next comes a visit to Minnesota that looks good for no one with a horseshoe helmet.
