Ameer Abdullah News
Sunday, December 21, 8:24 AM
Indianapolis Colts running back Ameer Abdullah saw his highest usage of the season during last week's loss to the Seattle Seahawks. Abdullah was basically a non-factor all season until getting nine touches in last week's defeat. Adbullah rushed the ball four times for 15 yards, while hauling in five receptions for 32 additional yards through the air. It appears Abdullah is going to benefit by having Philip Rivers under center in Indy, as the veteran QB looked his way quite often in the short passing game. Given his success last week, the Colts are likely going to continue using Adbullah in short-yardage situations as a check-down option for Rivers. There could be some flex appeal in deep PPR leagues for Abdullah ahead of this Monday Night matchup against the San Francisco 49ers, given that they allowed Tony Pollard to total 18.2 PPR points last week.

Tyler Goodson News
Saturday, August 22, 7:21 PM
Atlanta Falcons running back Tyler Goodson had six carries for 59 yards and a touchdown in the 34-6 preseason victory over the Indianapolis Colts. Goodson scored a 49-yard touchdown on the team's second drive, and the former Colts running back had his "return game" as teammates were penalized for storming the field after the long touchdown run. Goodson served as the team's lead back while star Bijan Robinson and backup Brian Robinson Jr. sat out. Goodson played eight of 11 offensive snaps, while 2025 third-string back Nathan Carter played just three snaps. Though it's a long shot that Goodson will have a role in the 2026 season, any injuries to the two starting backs could elevate him to a starting role this year.
