Adonai Mitchell - Big gain on one catch Sunday Mitchell recorded a 36-yard reception on his only target in the Colts' 38-30 win over the Titans on Sunday.

Impact The speedy rookie finished second in receiving yards despite the modest total as he filled the perimeter role normally belonging to the sidelined Alec Pierce (concussion). Mitchell's 36-yard reception in the latter portion of the second quarter helped set up a Matt Gay field goal and gave Mitchell, who hadn't recorded a reception in the previous two games, his fourth catch of 20-plus yards on the campaign. If Pierce is unable to clear concussion protocol in time for a Week 17 road matchup against the Giants, Mitchell will remain a boom-or-bust option against a secondary that's given up some big plays this season.

Michael Pittman Jr. - Two catches in Week 16 win Pittman brought in two of three targets for 19 yards in the Colts' 38-30 win over the Titans on Sunday.

Impact Pittman's final line was certainly disappointing, but the blame can hardly be blamed at the feet of the talented wideout considering Anthony Richardson threw only 11 times on the afternoon. Pittman's catch and yardage totals were his lowest since Week 9, while his target tally was a new season-low figure. Pittman could have a solid chance of boosting his numbers at least slightly in a favorable Week 17 road battle against the inconsistent Giants defense.

Josh Downs - Productive in high-scoring victory Downs brought in three of four targets for 61 yards and a touchdown in the Colts' 38-30 win over the Titans on Sunday.

Impact On an afternoon where Anthony Richardson attempted just 11 passes and finished with a modest 131 yards through the air, Downs' modest reception, receiving yardage and target totals were all team highs. The second-year wideout also recorded his fifth touchdown grab of the season on a nifty 27-yard catch and run late in the second quarter where he successfully tiptoed the right sideline on his way to the end zone. Downs' production, along with that of the rest of Indianapolis' pass catchers, remains hard to trust with Richardson under center, but he'll have his usual upside against a vulnerable Giants secondary on the road in Week 17.

NFL Week 16 live updates, score: Vikings hold off Seahawks, Cowboys leading Bucs

Anthony Richardson - Only 11 pass attempts in win Richardson completed seven of 11 passes for 131 yards with one touchdown and one interception and added nine carries for 70 yards and another score in the Colts' 38-30 win over the...

Impact The erratic second-year signal-caller wasn't asked to do much Sunday, with Jonathan Taylor shouldering the bulk of the load on offense via a 218-yard, three-touchdown performance. However, Richardson managed to make good use of his sparse opportunities as a passer, connecting with Josh Downs for his one touchdown pass and averaging 11.9 yards per attempt. Richardson also provided his usual superior production on the ground, setting a new career high in rushing yardage and scoring his sixth rushing TD of the campaign on a five-yard run early in the second quarter. Richardson's passing production is going to remain volatile from game to game, but he'll have another favorable matchup in a Week 17 road clash with the Giants.

Jonathan Taylor - Elite performance in win Taylor rushed 29 times for 218 yards and three touchdowns in the Colts' 38-30 win over the Titans on Sunday.

Impact Coming off a game where he inadvertently squandered a touchdown by releasing the ball before he broke the plane of the goal line, Taylor appeared to be on a quest for atonement Sunday. The talented back ripped off the first of his three touchdowns on a 65-yard breakaway run in the second quarter, and he subsequently struck from 70 yards on the first play of the second half before adding a one-yard scoring run later in the third quarter for the trifecta. Taylor's massive yardage total was the second highest of his career, bested only by his 253-yard franchise-record performance in Week 17 of his rookie 2020 campaign. Taylor has now eclipsed the century mark on six occasions this season heading into a favorable Week 17 road matchup against the Giants.

Jaylon Jones - Won't return against Titans Jones (throat) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Titans, George Bremer of The Anderson Herald Bulletin reports.

Impact Jones suffered a throat injury in the fourth quarter of Sunday's game. Given that the game has entered the final two minutes of the fourth quarter, he may have been held out for the rest of the contest out of precaution. His practice participation over the week will determine his availability for Week 17 against the Giants on Sunday, Dec. 29.

Jaylon Jones - Endures throat injury, questionable Jones (throat) is questionable to return to Sunday's outing against the Titans, George Bremer of The Anderson Herald Bulletin reports.

Impact Jones suffered a throat injury in the second half versus Tennessee and now could miss the rest of the game. Given that it's later in the game, the second-year cornerback may just sit out the rest of the outing.

Impact Flowers hurt his shoulder in the first half of the matchup against Tennessee, and it appears to be serious enough that he won't return to the field. The veteran cornerback logged one tackle before leaving the game.

Ashton Dulin - Set to play Sunday Dulin (ankle) is not among the Colts' inactives for their Week 16 matchup against Tennessee on Sunday.

Impact Dulin logged a full practice Friday, though he entered the weekend with a questionable tag. He'll ultimately be able to play through his ankle injury after missing each of Indianapolis past two games. Dulin could see more offensive reps than usual with Alec Pierce (concussion) inactive for Sunday's contest, though Dulin shouldn't be counted on by fantasy managers for production given that he hasn't recorded a catch since Week 2.

Mo Alie-Cox - Suiting up against Titans Alie-Cox (hip) is active for Sunday's Week 16 tilt against Tennessee.

Impact Alie-Cox entered the weekend questionable to play due to a hip injury, but he'll be able to take the field against the Titans. It would have been unusual to see the veteran tight end sidelined on game day, as he hasn't missed a regular-season contest since 2020. Alie-Cox hasn't been a big offensive contributor this year, though, as he has recorded a modest 11 catches for 132 yards and touchdown through 14 games.

Matt Gay - Active versus Titans Gay, who had been listed as questionable with a neck injury, is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Titans.

Impact After not practicing Wednesday and Thursday, Gay practiced fully Friday, setting the stage for the kicker to be available for Sunday's contest. In 13 games this season, Gay has recorded 95 points, while connecting on 24 of his 27 field-goal attempts and all 23 of his extra-point tries, a pace that puts him on the fantasy radar in deeper leagues ahead of the next wave of Week 16 action.

Who are the 10 greatest linebackers in NFL history? FOX Sports Research compiled the list of top defensive stalwarts.

1 DAY AGO

JuJu Brents - Not returning Week 16 Brents (knee) won't be activated from IR on Saturday and has been downgraded to out for Sunday's tilt against the Titans.

Impact Brents will remain on IR -- where's he's been since Sept. 10 -- for another week. The second-year cornerback did manage to log a trio of limited practices this week after being designated to return Wednesday, so it's still possible he could get back on the field before the end of the regular season. Brents' next opportunity to play will come Sunday, Dec. 29 versus the Giants.

1 DAY AGO • ROTOWIRE

Jaylon Carlies - Comes off IR, set to play Sunday The Colts activated Carlies (lower leg/shoulder) off injured reserve Saturday and removed his injury designation for Sunday's matchup versus Tennessee.

Impact Carlies has missed Indianapolis' past seven contests while recovering from a lower-leg injury he suffered Week 7 against Miami. He was designated to return from IR on Dec. 11 and, after remaining on injured reserve for last Sunday's loss to Broncos, was able to log a trio of full practices this week. Carlies will likely maintain the same rotational role on defense he held prior to getting hurt, and he had also been contributing on special teams.

1 DAY AGO • ROTOWIRE

Ryan Kelly - Set to return Week 16 Kelly (knee) was activated off injured reserve Saturday, and he doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Titans.

Impact Kelly was placed on IR on Nov. 5 and subsequently underwent arthroscopic surgery on his right knee. He was designated to return Dec. 11 but wasn't activated ahead of last Sunday's loss to Denver; however, after beginning this week with a pair of full practices before getting a rest day Friday, it appears Kelly will be able to return to the field Sunday. If that does happen, he will likely start at center, moving Danny Pinter back to a reserve role.

1 DAY AGO • ROTOWIRE

JuJu Brents - Questionable for Week 16 Brents (knee) was a limited participant in Friday's practice and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Titans.

Impact Brents was placed on injured reserve in mid-September after suffering an MCL injury against the Texans in Week 1. The injury was severe enough to require surgery, but he was able to progress in his recovery enough to return to practice Wednesday. If Brents isn't activated off IR ahead of Sunday's AFC South clash, his next opportunity to play will be Week 17 against the Giants on Sunday, Dec. 29.
