Who Should I Start? Ashton Dulin or Tyron Johnson

Friday, August 9, 10:12 PM

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Ashton Dulin (hamstring) missed his second straight day of practice on Friday. With his and Josh Downs' (ankle) recent injuries, other wideouts on the Colts roster have been able to run with the first team. The severity of Dulin's injury is unclear, but this puts him in jeopardy of missing Indianapolis' preseason opener on Sunday. The fifth-year wideout had previously been a full-go at training camp on the heels of missing the entirety of the 2023 season with a torn ACL he suffered in August last season. The Colts have a relatively deep WR corps, and Dulin is listed fifth on the team's unofficial depth chart behind Michael Pittman Jr., Downs, rookie Adonai Mitchell, and Alec Pierce. For now, he can be safely left by the wayside until he returns to health and begins rapidly ascending the depth chart.

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Tyron Johnson turned six targets into five catches for 90 yards during Saturday's preseason finale against the Las Vegas Raiders. The 27-year-old delivered a solid outing, but it might have been too little, too late. Constructing an NFL roster is a numbers game and Johnson isn't expected to make the team. With that said, Saturday's performance will certainly make him a practice squad candidate and could even earn him a depth spot on another team's 53-man roster.
