The Indianapolis Colts have re-signed tight end Mo Alie-Cox to a one-year deal on Friday. Alie-Cox is headed back to Indy for a eighth straight season. In 2024, Alie-Cox finished with 12 receptions for 147 yards and one touchdown in 17 games (13 starts) with the Colts. At this point, Alie-Cox is mainly depth as the Colts are likely to target a tight end during the upcoming NFL Draft. Regardless, it's hard to imagine Alie-Cox having fantasy value considering he hasn't posted a season with over 200 receiving yards since 2021. This appears to be a depth signing as Alie-Cox knows the system and the organization well.

Indianapolis Colts tight end Mo Alie-Cox (toe) is officially active for Sunday's Week 17 contest against the Jacksonville Jaguars. He had been listed as questionable but was trending in the right direction after logging a full practice on Friday. The 31-year-old has appeared in 15 games this season, catching just 12 passes for 147 yards and one touchdown. He remains off the fantasy radar given his reduced role in a tight end room that also features Drew Ogletree and Kylen Granson.

Indianapolis Colts tight end Mo Alie-Cox (hip) and wide receiver Ashton Dulin (ankle) are both active on Sunday and will suit up against the division-rival Tennessee Titans in Week 16. Neither player is worth attention in fantasy in starting lineups, though. Alie-Cox hasn't missed a regular-season game since 2020. The 31-year-old veteran tight end is used mostly as a blocker for the Colts, although he'll occasionally see some red-zone looks. He cannot be trusted in fantasy with only 11 catches for 132 yards and one touchdown in 14 games in 2024. Dulin could actually see more of the field on Sunday with Alec Pierce out with a concussion, but he's still a long shot to stand out in the box score at the end of the day. The 27-year-old pass-catcher will still likely struggle for targets. He hasn't caught a pass since Week 2.

Indianapolis Colts tight end Mo Alie-Cox (hip) and wide receiver Ashton Dulin (ankle) are both considered questionable to play on Sunday in Week 16 against the division-rival Tennessee Titans. Alie-Cox didn't practice on Wednesday or Thursday but was a full-go in practice on Friday. The 31-year-old is mostly a blocker for the Colts and has only 11 receptions for 132 yards and one touchdown on 18 targets in all 14 games this year, so even if he's active on Sunday, he should remain off the fantasy radar. If Alie-Cox is inactive, Kylen Granson, Drew Ogletree and Will Mallory will vie for more snaps on offense. The Colts already ruled out Alec Pierce (concussion), so Dulin would be competing for targets with rookie Adonai Mitchell as the WR3 in Week 16 if he's active. Dulin has missed the last two games and hasn't caught a pass since Week 2.

James Boyd of The Athletic reports that Indianapolis Colts tight end Mo Alie-Cox (hip) is not practicing on Thursday. It's the second straight day he'll be tagged with a DNP. The eighth-year veteran suffered his injury late last week, missing Friday's practice, but could still participate in Sunday's 31-13 loss to the Denver Broncos. However, he played on a season-low percentage of snaps (30%). Considering Alie-Cox played after a late-week DNP last week, it's feasible he could do so again in Week 16. Still, it'd be good if he could log at least a limited session ahead of this Sunday. If he is inactive, teammate Will Mallory projects to pick up some more snaps working in behind Kylen Granson and Drew Ogletree.

Indianapolis Colts tight end Mo Alie-Cox (hip) is officially active for Sunday's game against the Denver Broncos. He had been listed as questionable after missing practice on Friday. Cox has appeared in all 13 games so far this season, catching 11 passes for 132 yards and one touchdown. Indianapolis' tight ends have no appeal in fantasy football given the committee of Cox, Kylen Granson, Drew Ogletree, and Will Mallory.

Indianapolis Colts tight end Mo Alie-Cox gets an upgrade at quarterback in Week 9 with Joe Flacco under center, with eight of Cox's 13 total targets coming during Flacco's playing time earlier this season while Anthony Richardson dealt with an injury. In Weeks 5 and 6 combined, Cox caught all eight of his targets for 78 yards (he has just 100 on the season) and a touchdown. In Week 4 when Flacco came on in relief of Richardson, the veteran QB hit tight end Drew Ogletree for a 15-yard touchdown pass, so Cox and the TE group as a whole should be much more involved going forward. Cox leads the Colts TEs in targets on the season with 13, which is four more than Kylen Granson and six more than Ogletree. There are surely more proven TE options available on the waiver wire that have already been integrated into their offenses, but for fantasy managers looking for an under-the-radar dart throw with upside this week, Cox should be under consideration.

The Athletic's James Boyd writes that Indianapolis Colts tight end Mo Alie-Cox is an easy target if the team wishes to create more salary cap space this offseason. He's entering the final year of a three-year, $17.6 million contract extension that he signed in 2022. Alie-Cox is due the last $5.9 million of that in 2024, but none of it is guaranteed. The 30-year-old is the team's best blocking tight end and has recorded at least three touchdowns in each of the last three seasons, but he's not getting any younger and is unlikely to develop into a true No. 1 pass-catching tight end at this point of his career. Both Will Mallory and third-year tight end Jelani Woods, who missed all of 2023 with hamstring issues, give the Colts more upside at the position amid their current youth movement. Alie-Cox hasn't been much more than a low-upside, touchdown-dependent TE2 option for fantasy managers in deep leagues.

Indianapolis Colts veteran tight end Mo Alie-Cox is coming off back-to-back games with a touchdown. Alie-Cox has three touchdowns on the season, despite not having more than two receptions in a single game this year. He now gets ready to face the Atlanta Falcons in Week 16, a defense that's allowing the ninth-most fantasy points to the position this season. The former VCU basketball standout has virtually no floor to work with, but fantasy managers in desperate need of filling their tight-end spot can throw in Alie-Cox with the hopes that he finds pay dirt for the third week in a row.

Indianapolis Colts tight end Mo Alie-Cox (concussion) has cleared the league's concussion protocol, and his questionable designation for the Week 6 game against the Jacksonville Jaguars has been lifted. Alie-Cox will now be active for Sunday's game against the division rivals, but he's still not on the fantasy radar while seeing his snap percentages dip in recent weeks with both Kylen Granson and Drew Ogletree healthy. The 30-year-old veteran has just three receptions on five targets for 67 yards and one touchdown through five weeks of the season. Don't expect him to be a major factor for the Colts through the air this weekend. His availability will also hurt what limited upside Granson has as a fantasy weapon.
Oct 14, 2023 12:34 PM EST
Indianapolis Colts tight end Mo Alie-Cox was able to log a full practice on Friday but is still questionable for Sunday's game against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The 30-year-old progressed from not practicing on Wednesday and a limited practice on Thursday, but the questionable tag remains as he is still in the league's concussion protocol. There is still the possibility that Alie-Cox can be cleared to play in Week 6, though his snap share has been dwindling week-by-week anyhow. His absence would solidify Kylen Granson's spot at the top of the tight end pecking order in Indianapolis.

Indianapolis Colts tight end Mo Alie-Cox (concussion) did not practice on Wednesday. Alie-Cox suffered a concussion in his team's Week 5 game and will now have to clear the league's concussion protocol in order to be able to suit up for a Week 6 tilt against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Alie-Cox has caught three balls for 67 yards and a touchdown in 2023. If he doesn't play in Week 6, it would open up extra opportunities for tight ends Kylen Granson and Will Mallory.
Oct 11, 2023 9:37 PM EST
Indianapolis Colts tight end Mo Alie-Cox (head) exited Sunday's game against the Tennessee Titans and is being evaluated for a concussion. The 30-year-old caught a 17-yard pass but hit his head hard on the turf, causing him to leave the game. Kylen Granson and Drew Ogletree will operate as the Colts' top tight ends for the duration of Alie-Cox's absence.

Indianapolis Colts tight end Mo Alie-Cox (foot) returned to practice Tuesday. The 29-year-old had been sporting a boot earlier in training camp. Upon his return, he took reps with the second-team offense. Alie-Cox was a sleeper candidate in 2022 but failed to live up to expectations. When the season came to a close, the veteran tallied just 19 receptions for 189 yards and three touchdowns. With a crowded tight end room in Indianapolis, Alie-Cox could be a potential cut candidate. He is not worth drafting in fantasy football this season.
