Who Should I Start? Brock Bowers or Tyler Warren

Friday, October 23, 8:59 AM

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.
