Colts TE Jack Doyle (concussion) put in a full practice on Thursday, putting him on track to play against the Titans on Monday night. Doyle hasn't scored yet this season and has topped 41 yards in just 1 of 4 games. He remains a low-upside TE2 until QB Andrew Luck returns.

Colts TE Jack Doyle (concussion) is out for Sunday's game against the 49ers. He actually put in limited practices on Wednesday and Thursday before sitting out Friday, so it looks like he suffered a setback. We'll track Doyle's status next week.

Colts TE Jack Doyle is in the concussion protocol, HC Chuck Pagano said Monday. Doyle exited Sunday night's game to get checked for a concussion but was cleared and allowed to return. He must have experienced symptoms after the game or on Monday. Regardless, he's now iffy for this weekend's game against the 49ers. Doyle hasn't been much of a fantasy option without QB Andrew Luck, topping 41 yards just once in 4 games.

Colts GM Chris Ballard officially ruled out QB Andrew Luck (shoulder) for this Sunday's opener against the Rams. "He's in the training phase right now," Ballard added. "Mentally, he's in the best place he's been." It's been clear for a while now that Luck wouldn't be ready for the opener. Getting ruled out so early in the week is a reminder that he's uncertain for Week 2 and beyond. QB Scott Tolzien will start vs. the Rams. He's not a fantasy option and lowers the fantasy ceiling on all of Indianapolis' skill-position guys.

The Colts have re-signed TE Jack Doyle to a 3-year, $19 million contract. It's a hefty sum for a guy who entered this past season with just 35 career catches. Doyle had something of a breakout 2016 campaign, though, hauling in 59 balls for 584 yards and 5 TDs. He's a mediocre talent but seems to have forged a strong rapport with QB Andrew Luck, hauling in an impressive 78.7% of his targets last year. Staying in Indianapolis is good news for Doyle's fantasy value, but he's still unlikely to score as more than a TE2 in 2017.

Hopefully you didn't chase Colts TE Dwayne Allen's 3-TD explosion from a week ago. He followed that up with a big, fat goose egg in Sunday's loss to the Texans. Allen was targeted just twice and appeared to spend most of the game blocking. TE Jack Doyle, meanwhile, hauled in 5 of 6 targets for 55 yards. Neither guy can be trusted in fantasy lineups the rest of the way.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport hears that Colts TE Dwayne Allen (ankle) is expected to play against the Packers today. Rapoport adds that Allen is still "banged up," which jibes with HC Chuck Pagano saying Friday that he's still not at 100%. Allen can't be trusted in Week 9 fantasy lineups, but his return puts a dent in TE Jack Doyle's outlook.

Colts TE Dwayne Allen (ankle) practiced on Wednesday for the 1st time since going down in Week 6. It gives him a shot to return for this weekend's game against the Packers. That'd make TE Jack Doyle tough to trust in fantasy lineups.

As expected, Colts TE Dwayne Allen (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Chiefs. That means another start for TE Jack Doyle. WR Donte Moncrief's return dents his target projection a bit, but Doyle is still a solid TE1 for Week 8.

Colts TE Dwayne Allen (ankle) is out for Sunday’s game against the Titans. That turns TE Jack Doyle into something close to a full-time player — and a viable Week 7 fantasy spot starter.

Colts TE Dwayne Allen is considered "week-to-week" with the sprained ankle he suffered in Sunday night's loss to the Texans, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. "Likely means he'll miss some time," Rapoport confirms. Allen's absence will leave Jack Doyle as Indy's lead TE -- and a TD-dependent fantasy spot starter.
