Colts’ Mo Alie-Cox suffers concussion vs. Titans

Mo Alie-Cox has been ruled out due to a concussion.

Indianapolis Colts tight end Mo Alie-Cox suffered a concussion and won’t return against the Tennessee Titans in Week 5.

Alie-Cox caught a 17-yard pass in the third quarter and slammed the back of his head against the turf as he was tackled to the ground. It was apparent that he was shaken up and had to be helped off the field.

The Colts have dealt with several concussions this season and not one player has returned during the following game yet after suffering the injury.

Kylen Granson and Drew Ogletree will take the majority of the snaps at tight end with Alie-Cox out.

Colts vs. Titans: Updated injury report for Week 5

Here is the updated injury report for the Colts and Titans in Week 5.

The Indianapolis Colts (2-2) and Tennessee Titans (2-2) updated their practice injury reports Thursday ahead of the Week 5 matchup at Lucas Oil Stadium.

Here’s a look at the updated injury report for the Colts in Week 5:

*DNP = Did Not Participate — LP = Limited Participant — FP = Full Participant*

Colts Injury Report
Player Injury Wed. 10/4 Thu. 10/5 Fri. 10/6 Status
TE Mo Alie-Cox Ankle DNP FP
DT DeForest Buckner Back DNP LP
LB Shaquille Leonard Groin DNP DNP
DE Tyquan Lewis Knee DNP LP
G Quenton Nelson Toe DNP FP
DE Kwity Paye Concussion DNP DNP
T Bernhard Raimann Concussion DNP DNP
C Ryan Kelly Concussion FP FP
RB Jonathan Taylor Ankle FP FP

Notes

  • After holding a walkthrough Wednesday, the Colts held a typical practice Thursday
  • Jonathan Taylor seems healthy enough to be activated after logging full practices, but how he responds Friday will be key.
  • Kwity Paye and Bernhard Raimann are still in the concussion protocol and have yet to practice since entering the protocol. Missing the first two days of the week typically means they won’t be available, but there is still a chance they clear protocol in time.
  • Ryan Kelly appears on track to return this week, but he still needs to be cleared by the independent neurologist.
  • DeForest Buckner and Quenton Nelson are still dealing with their ailments but were able to play in Week 4. They both improved their participation levels from the start of the week.
  • Mo Alie-Cox and Tyquan Lewis both returned to practice after being listed as DNPs on Wednesday.
  • Shaquille Leonard’s status is now in question after missing the first two practices of the week.

Here’s a look at the updated injury report for the Titans in Week 5:

Notes

  • The Colts held a walkthrough Wednesday so participation levels are estimates.
  • The big news. Jonathan Taylor was listed as an estimated full participant so it will bear monitoring whether it will be enough to activate him this week.
  • Kwity Paye and Bernhard Raimann are in the concussion protocol and have yet to practice since entering the protocol. Ryan Kelly appears on track to return this week, but he still needs to be cleared.
  • DeForest Buckner and Quenton Nelson are still dealing with their ailments but were able to play in Week 4. Buckner was limited to pass-rushing snaps while Nelson played every offensive snap. The latter hasn’t practiced on the first day of the week since Week 2.
  • The new additions to the injury report compared to last week are Mo Alie-Cox, Shaquille Leonard, Kwity Paye and Tyquan Lewis so their statuses should be monitored.

WATCH: Anthony Richardson throws dart 35-yard TD vs. Rams

Watch this dart of a touchdown pass from Anthony Richardson.

The Indianapolis Colts got shut out during the first half of Sunday’s game against the Los Angeles Rams, but rookie quarterback Anthony Richardson came out firing during the second half.

On their second drive of the second half, Richardson led a four-play 75-yard drive down the field that was capped off by a 35-yard strike to tight end Mo Alie-Cox on the run.

The Colts wound up going for two, and Richardson found Zack Moss for a conversion on a pass after scrambling.

Stock report from Colts’ Week 3 win over Ravens

Here’s the stock report from the Colts’ big win over the Ravens in Week 3.

The Indianapolis Colts (2-1) gutted out a tough win on the road in Week 4, defeating the Baltimore Ravens (2-1) at M&T Bank Stadium in a 22-19 upset victory.

Without Anthony Richardson and Ryan Kelly, the Colts offense was still able to keep pace with the Ravens thanks to a stellar performance from the entire front seven on the defensive side of the ball. It also helped that the signing of Matt Gay this offseason proved to pay massive dividends.

When taking stock of a player’s performance, it’s best to be fluid. A player’s stock will fall and rise throughout the season so none of this is set in stone. However, it is important to take note of the narratives and storylines taking place as the campaign progresses.

A player’s stock can be impacted by factors such as their performance or the type of snaps they receive during the games.

Here’s a look at the stock report for the Colts following the Week 3 win:

Taking a look at the stock report from the Colts’ 31-20 win over the Texans.

The Indianapolis Colts (1-1) put together a pretty complete game in the 31-20 victory over the Houston Texans (0-2) in Week 2 at NRG Stadium.

Even though rookie quarterback Anthony Richardson exited the game after the first quarter due to a concussion, Shane Steichen’s offense kept rolling with Gardner Minshew under center. Meanwhile, the front seven collected 6.0 sacks and nine quarterback hits on Texans rookie C.J. Stroud.

While many parts of the franchise are new, including the head coach and quarterback roles, several veterans have been vital staples but could see their tenure close during this season or shortly after.

We took a look at the players with the most to gain at training camp. Now, here are the five Colts players with the most to lose:

Colts’ 2023 training camp preview: Tight End

There will be plenty of competition in the tight end room at Colts training camp.

The Indianapolis Colts are set to return for training camp at the Grand Park Sports Complex in Westfield with their first practice being held July 26.

Before then, we’ll be previewing each position, giving our takes on the starters, position battles and projected depth chart entering camp under the new regime.

There are few positions on the roster that will include more competition than tight end for the Colts. While the order is somewhat clear, the team seemingly has roughly six or seven worthy players vying for a (likely) maximum of four spots.
