Tyler Warren is Low-End TE1 for Week 9

Indianapolis Colts tight end Tyler Warren is hopeful for a bounce-back outing after posting a dud against the Jacksonville Jaguars last week. Warren made his return to the field in Week 8 after missing two games due to a groin injury. Warren was quiet as he hauled in four of his 10 targets for 18 yards in the loss. The double-digit targets are great to see, but it doesn't mean anything when the performance is terrible. Warren should rebound against the struggling Dallas Cowboys defense in Week 9. A unit that currently ranks 23rd in passing yards allowed coming into this game. Warren is ranked as Rotoballer's TE9 for Week 9 and should be considered a low-end TE1 for this game.

Tyler Warren Fails to Produce on Sunday

Indianapolis Colts tight end Tyler Warren failed to impress during Sunday's game against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Warren continues to see a high target share, but he failed to do anything with it on Sunday. He hauled in four of his 10 targets for 18 yards during the blowout loss. The 24-year-old made his return to the field this week after two straight absences, and it looks like he didn't even show up. It's not all his fault, as the Colts offense is struggling to move the ball right now. It's possible that both running back Jonathan Taylor and wide receiver Josh Downs get traded in the coming days. If that happens, Warren will probably see an increased role in the offense going forward. Fantasy managers can be hopeful for a bounce-back outing against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 9.

Tyler Warren A Must-Start TE In Return From Injury For Week 8

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Tyler Warren should be started in all fantasy football leagues for Week 8, when he takes on the Jacksonville Jaguars. They're not a soft defense against tight ends by any means, but with Colts WR1 Alec Pierce (heel) sidelined with a heel injury, Warren has been the clear No. 1 target in the passing game when healthy. Colts quarterback Daniel Jones has played poor football this season, but Warren can thrive in PPR fantasy leagues even when he's not gaining a lot of yardage, as his receptions alone have made him fantasy relevant. Jones appears to have regressed massively from last season, but still targets Warren heavily -- it's been the team's other pass-catchers that have been mostly unproductive this season. The Colts offense may look ugly, but Warren can still produce for fantasy managers.

Tyler Warren Good to Go For Week 8

Indianapolis Colts tight end Tyler Warren (groin) is good to go for the Week 8 game on Sunday against the division-rival Jacksonville Jaguars, according to Mike Chappell of FOX 59. Warren will make his return this weekend from a groin injury that sidelined him for the team's last two games. It is great news for a struggling Colts offense that is still without receiver Alec Pierce (heel) for the foreseeable future, but they will still have their work cut out for them against the Jags. The 24-year-old Warren has been a TE1 in fantasy football after he made the Pro Bowl as a rookie with a 76-817-4 line on 112 targets in 17 games in 2025. Through five games in 2026, he has caught 30 of his 36 targets for 213 yards and two touchdowns. Now that Warren is back for the Colts in Week 8, fantasy managers should be returning him to their starting lineups in all formats.

Tyler Warren Back at Practice, Limited on Wednesday

Indianapolis Colts tight end Tyler Warren (groin) returned to practice and was listed as a limited participant on Wednesday during the team's walkthrough. It is a good start to Warren's Week 8 preparation after he missed the last two games due to a groin injury, but he will likely need to upgrade to a full participant in the next two days to avoid being ruled out or given a questionable tag for this weekend's contest on the road against the division-rival Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday. The 24-year-old is on the TE1 radar when active, and his target share could be boosted this year if the Colts trade one or both of receivers Josh Downs and Keenan Allen by the Nov. 10 deadline. Through his first five games in his sophomore season, Warren has caught 30 of his 36 targets for 213 yards and two touchdowns as one of quarterback Daniel Jones' most reliable targets with wideout Alec Pierce (heel) on Injured Reserve. Warren is currently the TE6 by averaging 11.0 half-PPR points through his five games played.

Tyler Warren Officially Ruled Out for Second Straight Game

Indianapolis Colts head coach Shane Steichen announced on Friday that tight end Tyler Warren (groin) has been ruled out for a second straight game this Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings in Week 7, according to Mike Chappell of FOX 59. Warren will not be available again this weekend after he was a late addition to the team's Week 6 injury report last Saturday due to a groin injury. After missing practice all of this week, it remains to be seen if the tight end will be able to return for a Week 8 divisional contest next Sunday, Nov. 1, against the division-rival Jacksonville Jaguars. Despite not playing in last week's loss to the division-rival Tennessee Titans, Warren remains a top-10 fantasy tight end in half-PPR scoring, catching 30 of his 36 targets for 213 yards and two touchdowns in his five games played so far in 2026. Warren needs to remain stashed in all leagues while he recovers from his groin injury as a true weekly TE1 play when he is healthy. Fantasy managers should be looking away from the Colts' TE picture with Warren out for a second straight week.

Tyler Warren Still Not Practicing on Friday

Indianapolis Colts tight end Tyler Warren (groin) is still not practicing on Friday, according to Jake Arthur of Sports Illustrated. Warren popped up on the team's injury report last Saturday with a groin injury and did not play in the Week 6 loss to the division-rival Tennessee Titans. With a full week of missed practices, it seems like only a matter of time before the Colts rule the talented pass-catching tight end out for a second straight game this weekend against the Minnesota Vikings. Veteran Mo Alie-Cox caught a touchdown pass on his only target of the game last Sunday against the Titans, but fantasy managers should be looking to avoid Indy's TE situation if Warren misses another game against Minnesota. The 24-year-old former 14th overall pick in 2025 from Penn State is a TE1 in fantasy when he is active, catching 30 passes for 213 yards and two touchdowns in five games so far this year. If he is ruled out again this weekend, Warren's next chance to play will be in a Week 8 divisional clash on the road against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Tyler Warren Still Absent from Practice on Thursday

Indianapolis Colts tight end Tyler Warren (groin) missed the team's Week 6 loss to the Titans after appearing on the injury report late in the week with a groin injury, and for the second straight day, he was absent from the start of practice. In his absence on Sunday, wide receiver Keenan Allen led the team with 12 targets, which he converted into eight receptions for 82 yards, and should Warren miss another game, the 14-year veteran makes for a viable start in Week 7, even against a Vikings team that has been the most formidable against the position to begin the year. Through five weeks, Warren had been the TE6, but fantasy managers will need to monitor Friday's practice report and have a plan in place should he miss the final session of the week.

Tyler Warren Missing Practice on Wednesday

Indianapolis Colts tight end Tyler Warren (groin) is not practicing on Wednesday, according to James Boyd of The Athletic. Warren popped up on the Week 6 injury list late on Saturday with a groin injury and did not play in Sunday's loss to the division-rival Tennessee Titans. The 24-year-old is off to a bad start so far this week and is very much up in the air to play on the road this Sunday against the 5-0 Minnesota Vikings. If Warren cannot return to practice and is forced to miss a second straight game, fantasy managers in deep leagues could look to Mo Alie-Cox as a touchdown-dependent QB streamer against a tough Vikings defense. Alie-Cox had only one catch for one yard with Warren out against the Titans, but that one catch went for his first touchdown reception of the 2026 season. Fantasy managers should be able to find better options to stream. Warren is a TE1 in fantasy when he is healthy. He was a Pro Bowler as a rookie in 2025 and has 30 receptions for 213 yards and two touchdowns on 36 targets through five games this year.

Tyler Warren Inactive for the Colts in Week 6

Indianapolis Colts tight end Tyler Warren (groin) popped up on the Week 6 injury report on Saturday and was listed as questionable with a groin injury. The Colts announced on Sunday that he is officially inactive for Sunday's divisional contest against the 0-5 Tennessee Titans, so fantasy managers need to pull him from their fantasy lineups immediately this weekend. It is a big loss for a Colts offense that is still without top receiver Alec Pierce (heel), who is on Injured Reserve with no clear timetable for a return. It is unclear if the 24-year-old Warren will be ready to return for their game next weekend on the road against the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday, Oct. 25. With Warren not able to play this Sunday, the Colts will have more opportunities in the passing game for tight ends Mo Alie-Cox, Drew Ogletree, and Will Mallory, but it is not really a situation for fantasy managers in deeper leagues to target for a streaming option. If anything, receivers Josh Downs and Keenan Allen will be more involved against the Titans in Week 6. Warren entered Week 6 action as the TE7 overall in half-PPR scoring with 30 catches on 36 targets for 213 yards and two touchdowns.

Tyler Warren a Game-Time Decision for Week 6

Indianapolis Colts tight end Tyler Warren (groin) is a game-time decision for Sunday's Week 6 contest against the Tennessee Titans, according to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com. Warren entered this weekend listed as questionable, and it sounds like the Colts won't be able to confirm his status until after he goes through pregame warmups. The Colts' offense would look entirely different if Warren can't play, as he ranks as the overall TE6 in PPR leagues with at least nine fantasy points in each of his five games so far this season. The Colts are favored over the Titans, but losing Warren would shrink the gap between the two teams, especially since Indianapolis is already without wide receiver Alec Pierce (foot). Warren will be a TE1 if he plays. If he can't suit up, Mo Alie-Cox would lead the tight end room without having any sort of streaming appeal.

Tyler Warren Enters Week 6 as Colts' Most Targeted Player, But Dealing with Groin Injury

Indianapolis Colts tight end Tyler Warren (groin) enters a Week 6 matchup against the Tennessee Titans as the team's most-targeted player (36) and currently leads the Colts in receptions with 30. However, he was a late addition to the practice report this week, popping up on Friday with a limited session due to a groin injury. Warren comes into Sunday's contest with a questionable designation. Warren has recorded 213 receiving yards and two receiving touchdowns, while adding a rushing touchdown, through five games in 2026. If he can play, Warren will remain a top target for quarterback Daniel Jones (ankle), who is expected to play through an ankle issue. If Warren cannot play, the Colts will rely on tight ends Mo Alie-Cox, Drew Ogletree and Pharaoh Brown. Warren enters Week 6 as RotoBaller's No. 5 tight end (half-PPR) and is projected to score 10.1 fantasy points.

Tyler Warren Questionable to Play in Week 6 with Groin Injury

Indianapolis Colts tight end Tyler Warren (groin) is questionable to play in his team's Week 6 matchup against the Tennessee Titans with a groin injury. Warren was a surprise addition to the Friday injury report as a limited practice participant after practicing in full throughout the early portion of the week. The 24-year-old may have suffered the injury during practice on Friday, which could put his availability for Sunday in serious jeopardy. Across five games so far in 2026, Warren has recorded 30 catches for 213 yards and two touchdowns on 36 targets. If he's unable to play against Tennessee, Colts wide receivers Josh Downs and Keenan Allen could both be in line for upticks in target share and profile as more attractive options for fantasy managers in Week 6.

Tyler Warren Set For Big Workload in Week 5 With Multiple Colts WRs Injured

Indianapolis Colts tight end Tyler Warren will join WR Josh Downs in being one of the only two starting pass-catchers for Indianapolis that are healthy and full go for their Week 5 game against the Pittsburgh Steelers. WRs Alec Pierce (heel) and Ashton Dulin (hamstring) are both OUT for Week 5, while WR Keenan Allen (groin) is questionable with a groin injury. Indy's pass-catching corps is wearing extremely thin, and Warren has been quarterback Daniel Jones' favorite target. Jones' play has been lackluster this season thanks to a torn Achilles tendon late last season that he's slowly recovering from, but the lack of other passing options should see Warren flirt with 10 targets. His 85.2 percent catch rate should then lead him to be productive in fantasy football. The second-year TE isn't even averaging 35 yards per game, so his upside remains middling for the matchup with the Pittsburgh Steelers, who are a top-10 fantasy defense against tight ends this year. Warren checks in as a low-end TE1 based on target volume.

Tyler Warren Set For Big Game in Week 4 at Commanders

Indianapolis Colts tight end Tyler Warren caught nine of his 10 targets for 55 yards and carried the ball one time for two yards in his team's narrow win over the Houston Texans in Week 3. With the Colts' top wide receiver, Alec Pierce (heel), out with a heel injury, Warren is the team's top target in the passing game. The Texans presented a tougher defensive challenge than do the Washington Commanders, who have been one of the NFL's worst defenses against tight ends last season and through this year so far. Warren has faced tough defenses in each of his first three games and still maintained fantasy football relevance, so he appears to be on the verge of a breakout game here. Warren and wide receiver Josh Downs will split the lion's share of the team's targets. The Commanders appear to have an improved offense under quarterback Marcus Mariota, who will start in Week 4, and Indy's defense hasn't been playing exceptionally well, so a game with high passing volume could be on the table for the Colts. Warren is firmly in TE1 territory in fantasy football this week and should be started in all leagues.

Tyler Warren Faces Another Tough Test vs Texans in Week 3

Indianapolis Colts tight end Tyler Warren had a touchdown in each of his team's first two games of the 2026 NFL season. He was targeted 12 times, hauling in nine passes for 34 yards and the two scores. The low production in the passing game is concerning for his upside in Week 3, as the touchdowns have completely saved his games from being low-scoring affairs. To Warren's credit, Indy's first two opponents, the Kansas City Chiefs and Baltimore Ravens, were excellent at stopping opposing tight end production last season. The test won't get much easier, though, against the Houston Texans in Week 3. They also have an excellent defense. The absence of Colts WR1 Alec Pierce (heel) helps Warren's upside case, and he should see plenty of volume as one of the team's top-2 pass-catchers alongside slot receiver Josh Downs. Warren is still worth starting in fantasy football leagues in case he catches another touchdown pass, but his scoring floor is worryingly low for now.

Tyler Warren Catches Touchdown, But Low Yardage Woes Continue

Indianapolis Colts tight end Tyler Warren turned seven targets into six catches for 21 yards and a touchdown in his team's Week 2 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. Warren has now gained just 34 yards in two games, though receiving touchdowns have saved his fantasy output in both. The Colts passing offense as a whole isn't gaining a ton of yardage, so it's not all Warren's fault he isn't gaining much ground with the ball in his hands. Still, there's concern for fantasy football, where he'd not be a difference-maker were it not for his scoring snags. He at least is on the field plenty for his team in his second year in the NFL. With 12 targets across two games, fantasy managers are hoping for a bit more involvement. That could come with the injury to WR Alec Pierce (heel), who should miss time with a re-aggravation of the heel injury he battled in the offseason. Warren is set to remain a key component of a passing game that isn't very productive, making him a risky start in fantasy football leagues. The tight end position seriously lacks good fantasy scorers, though, so Warren should remain in starting lineups in all leagues for Week 3 against the Houston Texans.

Tyler Warren A Low-End TE1 For Week 2 at Chiefs

Indianapolis Colts tight end Tyler Warren could easily lead his team in targets in Week 2, were it an easier matchup. The Colts head on the road to face the Kansas City Chiefs, who just completely dominated the Denver Broncos in Week 1. KC was a tough defense for opposing tight ends to crack last season -- they allowed under 10.0 PPR fantasy points per game to the position, which ranks among the fewest in the NFL. Warren caught three of his five targets for just 13 receiving yards in Week 1, though he did score a touchdown. The purported rushing role for him that many touted as something that would add to his upside ahead of his rookie season never materialized. A team that has running back Jonathan Taylor in the backfield probably shouldn't be getting cute giving handoffs to a tight end, anyway. Warren still has top-12 upside at his position, but will need the passing offense to take a step up to pay off in starting lineups in Week 2. Still, he should see plenty of looks in the passing game.

Tyler Warren Set to Lead Colts Pass Catchers in Week 1

Indianapolis Colts tight end Tyler Warren will face the Baltimore Ravens at home on Sunday in the season opener. Even though Warren draws a stout Ravens defense that held the tight end position to an average of 8.9 fantasy points per game last season, the second-year first-rounder looks to once again dominate the team's target share and receiving lines. With wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. moving on during the offseason, Warren is primed to lead the team in targets and receptions this year. Wide receiver Alec Pierce (heel), Warren's primary competition for targets, will play on Sunday after logging limited practices all week, but his overall level of involvement is still unclear. Even though Warren gave managers a slight scare in August with a minor groin strain, he is fully off the Colts injury report and will probably play his usual complement of over 80% of offensive snaps and enjoy at least a 20% target share, judging from his usage last year. Lastly, the game has a decent over/under of 47.5, and the Colts are expected to be playing from behind, which should benefit Warren and other Colts pass catchers. Warren is ranked 3rd in Rotoballer's Week 1 tight end rankings, but has the talent, opportunity, and game environment to be the week's overall TE1.

Tyler Warren Returns to Practice on Tuesday

Indianapolis Colts tight end Tyler Warren (groin) returned to practice on Tuesday after suffering what had been described as a minor groin injury during a joint practice with the Falcons on August 19. While his availability for Week 1 had never appeared to be in question, his return puts him on track for a full workload when the Colts open the season against the Ravens in less than two weeks. Wide receivers Alec Pierce (ankle, heel) and Josh Downs (calf) also practiced on Monday, marking the first time this summer that Indianapolis has had all three of its top projected pass-catchers on the field together. Warren caught 76 passes for 817 yards and four touchdowns as a rookie in 2025, and with a potentially expanded role in year two, he is RotoBaller's TE4.
