  • Unlikely to re-sign with Colts

    General manager Chris Ballard doesn't expect Ebron (ankle) to re-sign with the Colts for 2020, Zak Keefer of The Athletic reports. "We'll probably move on," Ballard said Thursday.

    Analysis: Ebron scored 17 touchdowns in 27 games throughout a two-year, $13 million contract with Indianapolis, but he caught just 59.9 percent of his targets, in part due to 14 drops. His impressive athleticism ensures he'll draw interest from multiple teams as an unrestricted free agent, though the extent of that interest will partially depend on his recovery from Dec. 4 surgeries on both ankles. The tight end was one of the youngest players in the 2014 draft, so he'll be 27 years old in 2020 for his…read more

  • Satisfied with surgery

    Ebron confirmed via his personal Twitter account that he underwent successful surgery Wednesday on both of his ankles.

    Analysis: Ebron's season officially ended when the Colts placed him on injured reserve Nov. 25, and though he should be back to full strength by the time the 2020 campaign kicks off, it's not clear if he'll be wearing an Indianapolis uniform. The 26-year-old will become a free agent again this spring with his two-year, $13 million contract expiring.

  • Move to IR confirmed

    The Colts officially placed Ebron (ankles) on injured reserve Monday.

    Analysis: Reports surfaced earlier Monday that Ebron would require season-ending surgery on both ankles, so the move to IR is merely a formality. With Ebron out of the picture, Jack Doyle is the clear No. 1 tight end for the Colts moving forward, while Mo Alie-Cox should be in store for more work in two-tight-end sets. The Colts also added another body at the position in a corresponding move, signing free agent Ross Travis to provide additional depth.

  • Needs season-ending surgery

    Ebron will be placed on injured reserve as he's scheduled to have surgery on both ankles, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Ebron was listed on the injury report for Week 9 and showed up again Week 12, but he hadn't missed any games this season. His absence for the rest of the year should free up more targets for Jack Doyle, while Ebron's snaps (29.6 per game) likely will be divided between some combination of Doyle, Mo Alie-Cox and the Colts' wide receivers. Ebron finishes 2019 with a 31-375-3 receiving line on 52 targets, averaging 4.7 targets and 38.5 yards over 11 games.

  • Paces pass catchers in Week 12 loss

    Ebron (ankle) secured four of five targets for 44 yards in the Colts' 20-17 loss to the Texans on Thursday.

    Analysis: Ebron paced the Colts' pass-catching corps in both receptions and receiving yardage, but on a night when Jacoby Brissett threw for just 129 yards, that didn't exactly equate to impressive numbers. The veteran tight end has no fewer than four catches in three straight contests, his most productive multi-game stretch of the campaign. Ebron will look to continue his surge versus the Titans in a Week 13 divisional matchup, a week from Sunday.

  • Suiting up Week 12

    Ebron (ankle) is listed as active for Thursday night's road game against the Texans.

    Analysis: Ebron is out there if you need him this week, but it's unclear how close to 100 percent he'll be after being listed as a DNP both Monday and Tuesday. In a timeshare with Jack Doyle, Ebron has been a hit-or-miss fantasy option of late and hasn't found the end zone since Week 7, when he hit pay dirt against Houston in a home tilt, en route to logging a 4-70-1 stat line.

  • Draws questionable tag

    Ebron (ankle) is listed as questionable for Thursday's contest against the Texans.

    Analysis: Ebron was listed as a full participant on Wednesday's estimated practice report after missing the week's first two sessions. The 26-year-old is seemingly trending in the right direction for Thursday Night Football, but he can't be considered a lock to suit up on the short week. Jack Doyle would stand to handle an increased workload if Ebron were ultimately ruled out.

  • Labeled non-participant in practice

    Ebron (ankle) was listed as a non-participant Tuesday on the Colts' estimated practice report.

    Analysis: Due to the short turnaround for the Thursday night game against the Texans, the Colts held a walk-through session Tuesday rather than a traditional practice. With Ebron now garnering a "DNP" designation on the Colts' first two practice reports of Week 12, there's some reason to fear an absence Thursday. Wednesday's practice report will reveal whether or not Ebron carries an injury tag into the matchup with Houston.

  • Tending to ankle injury

    Ebron was listed as a non-participant on Monday's estimated practice report due to an ankle injury.

    Analysis: Ebron previously appeared on the injury report in Week 9 with an ankle issue, but there weren't any reports immediately coming out of Sunday's 33-13 win over the Jaguars that he suffered an aggravation during the contest. He played 43 percent of the offensive snaps in the victory, hauling in all four of his targets for 27 yards. The Colts should provide more information regarding Ebron's health heading into a Thursday night matchup with the Texans based on what he's able to do in practices…read more

  • Has four receptions Sunday

    Ebron had four receptions for 27 yards on four targets in Sunday's win over Jacksonville.

    Analysis: A week after getting 12 targets, but making just five receptions, Ebron saw his involvement in the passing game dialed back a bit. He played on just 43 percent of the offense's snaps (27 of 66), down from 61 percent the week before. It looks like he's back to his usual role where he gets four to five targets per game with a steady red-zone presence.

  • Squanders 12 targets

    Ebron hauled in five of his 12 targets for 56 yards in the team's Week 10 loss to the Dolphins.

    Analysis: Ebron led the team in targets, yards and receptions, with the highlight of his performance coming on a 23-yard catch late in the fourth quarter that gave the Colts the chance to take the lead. However, he also failed to get on the same page with Brian Hoyer for much of the day, averaging just over 4.5 yards per target while failing to convert half of his targets into receptions. Given that Ebron had not topped five targets in a game prior to his Week 10 performance, it's unlikely that he will…read more

  • Just two receptions Sunday

    Ebron had two receptions for 16 yards on two targets in Sunday's 26-24 loss at Pittsburgh.

    Analysis: Ebron played just 24 snaps on offense (compared to Jack Doyle's 54 snaps) as he didn't see a big increase in playing time despite the absence of T.Y. Hilton (calf). Ebron remains a red-zone target, but he's a boom-or-bust fantasy option due to few consistent targets.

  • Good to go this week

    Ebron (ankle) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Steelers.

    Analysis: Ebron -- who has logged 29 targets in seven games to date -- has been a hit-or-miss fantasy option this season while being stuck in a timeshare at tight end with Jack Doyle. The 26-year-old has at least bolstered his value with three touchdowns to date, and it's possible there will be room for both tight ends to feast in the coming weeks with top wideout T.Y. Hilton slated to miss time with a calf injury.

  • Added to injury report

    Ebron (ankle) didn't practice Thursday.

    Analysis: Ebron was added to the Colts' injury report Thursday, which clouds his Week 9 status unless he makes a quick return to practice Friday. If Ebron is limited or out Sunday against the Steelers, Jack Doyle would be in line for added opportunities at the tight end position.

  • Falls back to earth in win

    Ebron caught three of four targets for 26 yards during Sunday's 15-13 win over Denver.

    Analysis: Coming off Week 7's season-best game, Ebron was kept relatively quiet in Sunday's defensive matchup. Ebron has topped three catches or gone for over 50 yards just once this season, both in Week 7. When he's not scoring, and he's tied for second on the team with three touchdowns, he's not contributing enough in yards or catches to be a strong performance. Next up Sunday is an improving Steelers pass defense.

  • Season-best outing in Week 7

    Ebron caught four of five targets for 70 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 30-23 win over Houston.

    Analysis: Ebron did a great job of keeping his feet in bounds on his four-yard touchdown in the third quarter. The tight end has maintained his nose for the end zone even with Jacoby Brissett replacing Andrew Luck under center, as the touchdown was Ebron's third after he scored 13 in 2018. He also set season highs in catches and yards. Ebron will hope to build on this performance when the Broncos come to town in Week 8.

  • Shakes off illness

    Ebron (illness) was a full participant in Friday's practice.

    Analysis: Ebron was held out of Thursday's practice after feeling under the weather, but he won't carry a designation into the weekend after returning to work Friday. Though his health seemingly isn't a concern, Ebron's fantasy utility has taken a major hit following his breakout 2018 with fellow tight ends Jack Doyle and Mo-Alie Cox continuing to hold meaningful roles in coach Frank Reich's weekly game plans. Ebron has played less than 40 percent of the snaps in back-to-back games and has topped out at…read more

  • Under the weather

    Ebron (illness) didn't practice Thursday.

    Analysis: We'll revisit the tight end's status Friday, but he has a couple more days to recover in time for Sunday's game against the Texans, so for now we'll operate under the assumption that his Week 7 status is not in danger. With Jack Doyle also in the mix, Ebron's volume hasn't been steady, which has led to him recording a modest 9/136/2 stat line through five contests.

  • Picks up just eight yards

    Ebron caught one of four targets for eight yards during Sunday's 19-13 win over the Chiefs.

    Analysis: Ebron has now been held to a single catch in three of five contests this season, and while he's scored twice, he has yet to top 50 yards receiving in a game -- something he did seven times to go along with 13 touchdowns in 2018. The Colts are a more balanced operation with Jacoby Brissett under center and were downright run-heavy Sunday against Kansas City, so expectations should be tempered. After the Week 6 bye, the passing game should offer a few more opportunities in Week 7 against the…read more

  • Reels in TD despite three drops

    Ebron had one reception for a 48-yard touchdown on five targets in Sunday's loss against Oakland.

    Analysis: Ebron struggled most of the game as he had three drops, according to Pro Football Focus. He also played on just 27 of the offense's 77 snaps, compared to Jack Doyle playing on 56 snaps. Ebron could have a larger red-zone role if T.Y. Hilton remains out with a quad injury, but it doesn't look like he'll necessarily get more snaps or targets as the Colts distributed Hilton's playing time evenly across the receiving corps.

  • Gets downfield in win

    Ebron brought in three of four targets for 47 yards in the Colts' 27-24 win over the Falcons on Sunday.

    Analysis: Ebron showed off his downfield chops with a 30-yard reception, his longest on the young season. The 26-year-old tight end has logged a relatively modest 11 targets through three games, and he's only been able to flash his red-zone prowess on one occasion, finding the end zone Week 2. Nevertheless, Ebron's past success in this offense and Jacoby Brissett's considerably improved play early this season offers reason for optimism that even more productive days are ahead. Ebron will look to build…read more

  • Records opening drive TD

    Ebron caught three of four targets for an output of 25 receiving yards and one touchdown during Sunday's 19-17 win against the Titans.

    Analysis: Ebron hauled in a three-yard, opening-drive touchdown pass from Jacoby Brissett, providing the 26-year-old with his first receiving score of 2019 after accounting for 13 last year, the third most ever for a Super Bowl Era tight end. His touchdown dependence is becoming more and more apparent, as Ebron has averaged fewer than three receptions and 30 receiving yards per game over his past seven regular-season and playoff appearances.

  • Just one reception Sunday

    Ebron had one reception for eight yards on three targets in Sunday's loss to the Chargers. He was targeted once in the red zone, but couldn't hold on to a potential touchdown catch in the end zone.

    Analysis: Ebron appeared to catch a touchdown and the Colts challenged the play, but replay showed he wasn't controlling the ball before rolling out of bounds. Neither Jack Doyle (two targets) nor Ebron played a big part in the Indy passing game, but at least Ebron was targeted in the end zone. Doyle played more snaps on offense (43) than Ebron (25), which continues a pattern when both were on the field last year. However, Ebron still looks like a primary red-zone target.

  • Catches TD in preseason debut

    Ebron caught both of his targets for 28 yards and a touchdown during Saturday's 21-18 preseason loss to the Colts.

    Analysis: Both of Ebron's catches came on the team's 10-play, 85-yard drive which concluded with his 12-yard touchdown grab. He played in conjunction with Jack Doyle on the drive in a likely preview of how the two will operate during the regular season. Because Ebron missed the preseason opener due to a leg injury, he likely will see a healthy increase in snaps next week against the Bears.

  • Practicing again

    Ebron (leg) returned to practice Monday, George Bremer of The Anderson Herald Bulletin reports.

    Analysis: After missing the preseason opener, Ebron could make a brief appearance Saturday against the Browns, or perhaps the following weekend against Chicago. His recent absence was attributed to a lower leg injury rather than the groin issue that required offseason surgery. Fellow tight end Jack Doyle returned to practice Saturday after also missing the preseason opener.

  • Missing time with lower leg injury

    Ebron is dealing with a lower leg injury, Joel A. Erickson of The Indianapolis Star reports.

    Analysis: Ebron didn't play in Thursday's preseason contest with what head coach Frank Reich described as an "ankle/foot" injury. The lack of proper distinction likely means the injury isn't serious, however his status is worth monitoring with Jack Doyle (oblique) shedding a minor injury of his own in recent days.

  • Slated to sit out preseason opener

    Ebron won't play in Thursday's preseason opener against the Bills.

    Analysis: Ebron dealt with a groin issue during the offseason, so his absence is presumably precautionary. Also sitting out the contest is fellow tight end Jack Doyle (oblique), with the Colts resting several dinged up players Thursday night. Ebron's next chance to suit up for a game will occur Aug. 17 against the Browns.

    Ebron (groin) isn't listed among the players that the Colts plan to ease into action at training camp, Joel A. Erickson of The Indianapolis Star reports.

    Analysis: The Colts are taking it easy on players that missed the offseason program, but Ebron apparently doesn't qualify after he made it back for individual drills and positional work at June minicamp. With no complications coming off his offseason groin surgery, the 26-year-old appears to be a step ahead of fellow tight end Jack Doyle, who still needs to regain strength after he lost 25 pounds while recovering from multiple surgeries.

    Ebron (groin) took part in individual drills and positional work Tuesday, Andrew Walker of the Colts' official site reports.

    Analysis: Ebron missed time during OTAs after undergoing offseason groin surgery, but he wasn't expected to miss a ton of time. The tight end's partial inclusion in Tuesday's minicamp session would seem to further that notion. With Jack Doyle (hip) expected to be ready in short order as well, the Colts will have two pass-catching weapons at tight end heading into 2019, who will likely eat into each other's production.

    Ebron (groin) may be limited during offseason practices, but he isn't expected to miss significant time, Andrew Walker of Colts.com reports.

    Analysis: Ebron seems to be on track for full participation at the start of training camp, as he had surgery the first week of April and has already progressed to a point that could allow for some level of activity during OTAs and mandatory minicamp. Meanwhile, fellow tight end Jack Doyle (hip) is also expected to be ready for the start of training camp, creating more competition for snaps and targets than Ebron faced throughout much of his breakout 2018 campaign.

  • Recovering after groin surgery

    Ebron underwent surgery for a groin injury and remains on the mend, Mike Chappell of Fox 59 News Indianapolis reports.

    Analysis: There hasn't been any indication that Ebron is expected to miss regular-season action because of the issue. He broke out in 2018 in his first season with the Colts, posting career-high marks in all of the major receiving categories, and should be in line for a big follow-up campaign in 2019, though Jack Doyle's (hip) return could lessen Ebron's outlook.

  • Totals 51 yards in playoff loss

    Ebron caught five of nine targets for 51 yards in Saturday's 31-13 divisional-round loss at Kansas City.

    Analysis: The Colts were unable to get into any sort of an offensive rhythm Saturday as they didn't get on the scoreboard offensively until the fourth quarter. The 25-year-old was unable to extend his touchdown streak to three games, but the five catches are his highest total since he caught 10 in Week 13 at Jacksonville.

    Ebron (hip) does not carry an injury designation for Saturday's divisional-round playoff game against the Chiefs after practicing fully Thursday.

    Analysis: After being limited at practice Wednesday, the tight end graduated to a full session Thursday, paving the way for him to be a go this weekend. In 17 outings this past season, including the playoffs, Ebron racked up a fantasy-friendly 15 TDs. He'll be working Saturday against a Kansas City defense that was 31st in the league in terms of passing yardage, while allowing 30 TDs through the air in 2018.

    Analysis: Ebron was deemed a non-participant in Tuesday's walk-through session, but his return to work Wednesday puts the tight end on track to suit up for Saturday's divisional-round game against the Chiefs. In 17 appearances this season, Ebron is averaging a so-so 45.6 yards per game, but has racked up a fantasy-friendly 15 touchdowns.

According to Kevin Bowen of 1070 The Fan Indianapolis, the Colts are holding true practices Wednesday and Thursday, which should help shed some light on Ebron's status.

    Ebron caught three of six targets for 26 yards and one touchdown in Saturday's 21-7 win at Houston.

    Analysis: Like all of the Colts' pass catchers, Ebron did his work in the first half as they took a 21-0 lead into halftime and cruised to victory in the second half. Kansas City awaits in the divisional round, featuring a defense that ranks second worst in the NFL with 273.4 passing yards allowed per game.

The absence from practice Wednesday represents an effort to keep him fresh for Saturday's wild-card game, at which point he'll take aim at Houston defense he's already faced twice this season.

    Ebron (concussion/knee) is listed as active for Sunday night's game against the Titans.

    Analysis: Officially active after practicing fully Friday, Ebron merits lineup consideration in Sunday night's win-or-go-home showdown, given that he's logged a fantasy-friendly 12 touchdowns in 15 games to date.

  • Confident he'll play Week 17

    Ebron (concussion/knee), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Titans, is optimistic he'll play, sources told Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.

    Analysis: Ebron finished Week 17 preparations as a full practice participant Friday, but he still carried the questionable tag into the weekend after having yet to clear the NFL's five-step concussion protocol. Based on what Rapoport is hearing, it sounds like Ebron is expected to pass tests administered by an independent neurologist prior to the 8:20 p.m. EST kickoff, thereby paving the way for him to fill a key role in the Indianapolis passing attack. Ebron's status won't be confirmed until the Colts…read more

  • Questionable for Sunday night game

    Ebron (concussion/knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday night's game against the Titans after practicing fully Friday, Kevin Bowen of 1070 The Fan Indianapolis reports.

    Analysis: Ebron progressed from a limited practice session Thursday to full-go Friday, and the Colts are optimistic that the tight end will be cleared by an independent neurologist Saturday. Assuming that's the case, Ebron -- who has scored 12 touchdowns in 15 games to date -- will merit fantasy consideration in Sunday night's win-or-go-home showdown versus Tennessee.

  • Awaiting clearance from neurologist

    Coach Frank Reich said Ebron (concussion) needs to gain clearance from an independent neurologist to play Sunday night at Tennessee, Mike Chappell of Fox 59 News Indianapolis reports. "We're optimistic," Reich added.

    Analysis: Ebron practiced in a limited fashion Thursday and appeared to maintain that activity level Friday, but the final hurdle of the concussion protocol remains. The tight end likely has an evaluation scheduled for Saturday, at which point his availability (or lack thereof) will become known. If Ebron isn't cleared, fellow tight end Mo Alie-Cox would be the biggest beneficiary.

  • Logs limited practice

    Ebron (concussion/knee) was officially limited at practice Thursday, Kevin Bowen of 1070 The Fan Indianapolis reports.

    Analysis: Ebron's return to practice Thursday is a step in the right direction and he "has a real chance to play" Sunday night against the Titans, per Bowen. Given the playoff implications of the Colts' Week 17 contest, Ebron will no doubt push to play this weekend, but ultimately his status hinges on progressing fully through the NFL's concussion protocol.

  • On the field Thursday

    Ebron (concussion/knee) was spotted at practice Thursday, Zak Keefer of The Indianapolis Star reports.

    Analysis: Ebron's presence on the field is a good sign, but we'll have to see if the tight end is officially upgraded to a limited practice participant Thursday after sitting out Wednesday's session.

  • Misses practice Wednesday

    Ebron (concussion/knee) was listed as a non-participant in Wednesday's practice, Andrew Walker of the Colts' official site reports.

    Analysis: Ebron was forced out of last Sunday's game against the Giants and subsequently placed in the NFL's concussion protocol. Colts beat writer Stephen Holder of The Athletic noted that feels "very, very optimistic" about the tight end's status for the Week 17 matchup with the Titans, suggesting he gets the sense that Ebron's concussion symptoms have subsided to the point that he could practice Thursday. The knee issue that was listed on Wednesday's injury report isn't believed to be much of a…read more

  • Not practicing Wednesday

    Ebron (concussion) wasn't spotted at practice Wednesday, George Bremer of The Anderson Herald Bulletin reports.

    Analysis: Initial reports suggested that the tight would log a limited session, but it appears as though he'll be listed as a non-participant on the Colts' first practice report of Week 17. With Ebron still in the NFL's concussion protocol, the Colts have added Erik Swoope to their practice squad to add more insurance at tight end. Swoope would likely be promoted to the active roster if it's apparent Ebron won't be ready to go for Sunday's all-important matchup with the Titans.

  • Limited practice on tap

    Ebron (concussion) will be limited at practice Wednesday, Kevin Bowen of 1070 The Fan Indianapolis reports.

    Analysis: Though Ebron is still in the NFL's concussion protocol, the fact that he'll practice in any capacity Wednesday indicates that he's making progress on that front. The tight end -- who has scored 12 touchdowns in 15 games to date -- will now look to gain medical clearance in advance of Sunday's win-or-go home season finale against the Titans. For what it's worth, coach Frank Reich said Wednesday that he's "hopeful" and "optimistic" that Ebron would be ready to go by the weekend, per Jim Wyatt of…read more

  • Concussion confirmed

    Ebron was forced out of Sunday's game against the Giants with a concussion.

    Analysis: Prior to heading to the locker room after being examined in the Colts' medical tent, Ebron caught three of his five targets for 28 yards. Next up for the team's tight end looks in Ebron's absence is Mo Alie-Cox.

  • Good to go this week

    Ebron (quad) returned to a full practice Thursday.

    Analysis: Ebron sat out Wednesday's session, but his return to a full practice Thursday suggests that his absence was maintenance-related. A disappointing one-catch effort in Week 15 aside, Ebron has been one of the better fantasy options at the tight end position this season, having logged 59 catches on 99 targets for 662 yards and 12 TDs in 14 games. He's an obvious bounce-back candidate Sunday against the Giants.

  • Sits out practice Wednesday

    Ebron didn't practice Wednesday due to a quadriceps issue, Andrew Walker of the Colts' officials site reports.

    Analysis: Ebron turned in a more muted performance than usual in the Week 15 win over the Cowboys, playing 38 offensive snaps and catching just one of his three targets for eight yards. So far there's nothing to suggest that his availability for Sunday's game against the Giants is in any danger, but he would erase any concern about his status by practicing fully Thursday or Friday.

  • Makes one catch

    Ebron caught one of three targets for eight yards in Sunday's 23-0 win over the Cowboys.

    Analysis: Ebron surprisingly finished with just three targets, but he hardly made the most of his looks. He had a drop on a play that should have resulted in a big gain and took a big shot on another deep pass. Ebron rolled into the game with 19 catches and three touchdowns over his last three, so this dud performance in a favorable matchup on paper is a bit disappointing. He'll look to get back on track next Sunday against the Giants.

  • Scores 12th touchdown of season

    Ebron caught four of eight targets for 65 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-21 win over the Texans.

    Analysis: Ebron gave the Colts the lead for good when he hauled in a 14-yard pass with just under three minutes remaining in the first half. The 25-year-old has now scored in all but four games this season, and as a result, he's considered a top-10 tight end for fantasy purposes over the rest of the season. He'll try to reel in another score at home Week 15 against Dallas.

  • Cleared to face Texans

    Ebron (illness/back) doesn't have a designation on the Colts' final injury report for Sunday's game in Houston.

    Analysis: Ebron's absence from practice Wednesday and Thursday was likely a result of his illness more so than a minor back injury. He rejoined his teammates Friday as a full participant, gearing up for the probability of another heavy workload. Already averaging 11 targets in the six games Jack Doyle (kidney) has missed this season, Ebron may be left as Andrew Luck's top weapon Sunday if wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (shoulder) is absent or limited. The Colts have already ruled out wideout Dontrelle Inman…read more

  • Practicing Friday

    Ebron (illness/back) took part in Friday's practice, Kevin Bowen of 1070 The Fan Indianapolis reports.

    Analysis: Ebron missed the last two days of practice because of the ailment, but it appears he was feeling good enough to get back on the field for the Colts' final session of the week. His participation alone puts him on track to suit up in Week 14 against the Texans, but his official status will be revealed after Friday's practice wraps up.

  • Sits out another practice

    Ebron remains under the weather as of Thursday, Kevin Bowen of 1070 The Fan Indianapolis reports.

    Analysis: The tight end has also been managing a back issue of late, but his illness is evidently the culprit for his absence from practice Thursday. As long as Ebron practices Friday, in a any capacity, he'll be on track to play Sunday against the Texans.

  • Sits out practice

    Ebron (back/illness) didn't practice Wednesday.

    Analysis: Ebron was also held out of practice last Wednesday with a back issue before practicing fully the next day. With that in mind, it wouldn't be surprising to see the tight end back on the field Thursday, assuming his illness doesn't linger.

  • Not seen at practice

    Ebron doesn't appear to be practicing Wednesday, Kevin Bowen of 1070 The Fan Indianapolis reports.

    Analysis: Ebron was held out of practice last Wednesday with a back injury, but he returned to full participation the following day and hauled in 10 of 16 targets for 81 yards in Sunday's 6-0 loss to the Jaguars. Barring any report of a new injury, he should be headed for another heavy workload Week 14 against a Houston defense that has allowed the eighth-most receiving yards (852) to tight ends this season. Ebron is averaging 11 targets in six games with Jack Doyle (kidney) out of the lineup this season.

  • Targeted 16 times sans Doyle

    Ebron caught 10 of 16 targets for 81 yards and lost a fumble in Sunday's 6-0 loss to the Jaguars.

    Analysis: Ebron's fourth-down fumble in the second quarter led to a Jaguars field goal on the ensuing possession. Besides that play, Ebron had a productive day considering his team failed to score any points. The former Lions tight end should see all the targets he can handle the rest of the way with Jack Doyle on injured reserve due to a kidney injury. Indianapolis will face the Texans on the road Week 14.

  • Returns to full practice

    Ebron (back) practiced fully Thursday.

    Analysis: The tight end's return to a full session Thursday suggests that Wednesday's absence was maintenance-related. With Ebron slated to play Sunday against the Jaguars, he profiles as one of the more appealing fantasy options at his position in Week 13. Not only has he scored 11 TDs in as many game this season, but Ebron's weekly floor (in terms of snaps and targets) should be boosted by the placement of Jack Doyle (kidney) on IR.

  • Dealing with back issue

    Ebron didn't practice Wednesday due to a back issue.

    Analysis: It remains to be seen if the back issue is a minor concern that the Colts are managing through the week or if Ebron's status for Sunday's game against Jacksonville is actually in any danger. Another update on Ebron's situation should come Thursday once the team's second practice of the week is underway. With Jack Doyle (kidney) on injured reserve, Ebron -- who was already highly productive as the No. 2 tight end -- seems destined to see extra snaps the rest of the season, health permitting.

  • Not spotted at practice

    Ebron doesn't appear to be practicing Wednesday, Kevin Bowen of 1070 The Fan Indianapolis reports.

    Analysis: The Colts have a few players sitting out practice without any known injuries, leading Andrew Walker of the team's official site to speculate that some key contributors might be getting a rest day. A better read on the situation should come later Wednesday, when the team will release its initial injury report for Sunday's game in Jacksonville. With Jack Doyle (kidney) out for the season, Indianapolis will need Ebron at full strength for a December playoff push. The 25-year-old tight end averaged…read more

  • Added work on tap

    Ebron is expected to step into an enhanced role for Indianapolis' final five contests of 2018 after the team announced Monday that fellow tight end Jack Doyle (kidney) will miss the rest of the season, Andrew Walker of the Colts' official site reports.

    Analysis: After Doyle reclaimed top tight-end duties for the Colts' most recent four games, Ebron produced only 11 receptions for 151 yards, but kept his fantasy value afloat by scoring six times over that span. That sort of red-zone efficiency would have been difficult for any player to sustain going forward, but Doyle's absence now paves the way for Ebron to make up for any regression in his scoring with added work in the passing game. While Doyle was sidelined for five games earlier this season, Ebron…read more

  • Catches two touchdown passes

    Ebron caught five of seven targets for 45 yards and two touchdowns during Sunday's 27-24 win over the Dolphins.

    Analysis: Ebron finished second on the team in targets as he tied his second-best catch total of the season. He was shut out last week, but he bounced back with touchdown catches in the first and fourth quarters. Ebron's emergence as an elite red-zone option has been swift: He's now tied for the league lead in receiving scores through 12 weeks. He'll look to keep it going next Sunday against a Jaguars team he dominated in the previous matchup (three touchdowns in Week 10).

  • Held without a catch Sunday

    Ebron did not have a reception and was not targeted in Sunday's win over Tennessee. He played 25 of the offense's 62 snaps.

    Analysis: Ebron did't have a reception a week after he had three touchdowns in the Week 10 win over Jacksonville even though he played more snaps Sunday than the week before (21). Ebron drew extra attention from the defense given his red-zone success as he had a cornerback covering him frequently, according to Kevin Bowen of 1070 The Fan Indianapolis.

  • Scores three TDs in win over Jaguars

    Ebron caught all three of his targets for 69 yards and two touchdowns Sunday against the Jaguars. He also scored a two-yard rushing touchdown in the 29-26 win.

    Analysis: Ebron did all his damage early on, including a 53-yard receiving touchdown on the opening drive and a short rushing score on a gadget play at the end of the first quarter. He reached the end zone again via a 12-yard reception in the second, giving him 10 touchdowns in just nine games this season. Ebron's role as Andrew Luck's top red-zone weapon has vaulted him into must-start territory, and he'll look to continue his outstanding campaign next Sunday against the Titans.
