Trey Sermon - Page 2 - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Totals eight yards Sermon rushed the ball five times for eight yards in Sunday's 27-24 win over the Steelers.

Impact Sermon didn't earn his first touch until late in the third quarter but closed out the game as the Colts' lead back after Jonathan Taylor (ankle) was forced to the sidelines. He was ineffective with his opportunity, but Sermon could be in for a significant workload in Week 5 against the Jaguars if Taylor is unable to suit up.

Scores TD in win Sermon had two carries for 16 yards, including a one-yard touchdown, in Sunday's win over Chicago.

Impact Sermon played on just five of the offense's 56 snaps but had a short-yardage touchdown when giving Jonathan Taylor some time off. Unlike Week 2, Taylor was used extensively in the fourth quarter. While it's possible Sermon could be used more frequently in passing situations as the primary backup running back, he's only going to get a small workload if the Colts are not playing from far behind if Taylor is healthy.

Gets time late in loss Sermon had two carries for zero total yards and one reception for seven yards in Sunday's loss at Green Bay.

Impact Sermon played on just 18 of the offense's 56 snaps but got most of his usage late in the fourth quarter when the Colts were playing from behind. Jonathan Taylor was surprisingly on the bench late in the game after some drops earlier in the game, so Sermon and Tyler Goodson could see more of a role in the passing game.

SEPTEMBER 16 • ROTOWIRE

Minimal involvement in Week 1 loss Sermon did not log a rushing attempt or draw a target during Sunday's 29-27 loss to the Texans.

Impact Sermon handled the No. 2 role behind Jonathan Taylor versus Houston, playing five offensive snaps while Tyler Goodson didn't take the field. No running back aside from Taylor, who rushed 16 times for 48 yards and a touchdown, factored into the game plan for Indianapolis' opener, but Sermon should mix in more frequently going forward. More opportunities could come Week 2 against a Packers defense that allowed 132 yards from scrimmage and three TDs to Saquon Barkley in Week 1.

SEPTEMBER 9 • ROTOWIRE

Not on injury report Sermon (hamstring) is not listed on the Colts' injury report ahead of Sunday's season opener against the Texans.

Impact Sermon has evidently moved past a hamstring issue that sidelined him last month, and as a result is in line to be available to back up starting RB Jonathan Taylor in Week 1. Also in the team's backfield mix is Tyler Goodson, though neither Sermon or Goodson figure to garner a high volume of weekly touches as long as Taylor is available.

SEPTEMBER 4 • ROTOWIRE

Returns to practice Sermon (hamstring) returned to practice Wednesday, Nate Atkins of The Indianapolis Star reports.

Impact Sermon injured his hamstring Aug. 11 during the Colts' preseason opener, after reports from the first two weeks of training camp suggested he was the favorite for the No. 2 RB role. He's now one of three backs on the roster after Tuesday's cutdowns, joined by starter Jonathan Taylor and 23-year-old Tyler Goodson. As things currently stand, Sermon presumably would get most of the carries in the event of a Taylor injury, with Goodson then handling passing situations and more of the targets.

AUGUST 28 • ROTOWIRE

Could return to practice soon Colts coach Shane Steichen said Sunday that he's hopeful for Sermon (hamstring) to return to practice next week, George Bremer of The Anderson Herald Bulletin reports.

Impact Sermond has been sidelined since suffering a hamstring injury during the preseason opener Aug. 11, and he missed Thursday's 27-14 win in the preseason finale against Cincinnati. Steichen's phrasing seems to indicate that the 25-year-old might return in the week immediate leading up to Indianapolis' season opener against the Texans on Sunday, Sept. 8. Sermon stretched with his teammates ahead of Sunday's practice, though he still wasn't in uniform, according to Bremer. When healthy, Sermon is considered to leading candidate to slot in as the No. 2 running back behind Jonathan Taylor. The latter's lingering injury could leave a chance for either Evan Hull or Tyler Goodson to step in behind Taylor in Week 1.

AUGUST 25 • ROTOWIRE

Misses another week Sermon (hamstring) didn't play in Thursday's 27-14 preseason win over the Bengals.

Impact James Boyd of The Athletic expects Sermon to have a spot on the initial 53-man roster despite missing the final two preseason games and the past couple weeks of practice. The running back was injured during the first quarter of the Colts' preseason opener, after reports out of training camp pegged him as a favorite for the second spot on the depth chart. It's a role that doesn't figure to entail many touches when Jonathan Taylor is healthy, and there's some chance Sermon's absence will lead the Colts to turn to Evan Hull and/or Tyler Goodson instead. The team may even put Sermon on injured reserve if he won't be ready for Week 1, in which case he'd be ruled out for the first four games of the season.

AUGUST 23 • ROTOWIRE

Misses game with hamstring injury Sermon (hamstring) did not play in Saturday's preseason win over Arizona.

Impact Sermon left Indy's first preseason game Sunday with a hamstring injury. The severity of the injury isn't clear, but it's thought he'll be ready for the start of the regular season. Sermon had been the leader for the No. 2 RB role behind Jonathan Taylor prior to the injury, with Tyler Goodson and Evan Hull competing for the No. 3 role.

Misses practice Sermon (hamstring) did not practice Thursday, Kevin Bowen of 107.5 The Fan Indianapolis reports.

Impact Sermon left Indy's first preseason game Sunday with a hamstring injury. The severity of the injury isn't clear, but it's not a good sign that he hasn't returned to practice this week.

Exits preseason opener with injury Sermon won't return to Sunday's exhibition contest against Denver due to a hamstring injury, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Impact Sermon headed to the medical tent in the first quarter and has since been ruled out from returning. The severity of his hamstring injury isn't yet clear, but it could impact his availability for the remainder of the preseason slate and potentially prevent him from being ready for the start of the regular season as well. Sermon had been the leader for the No. 2 RB role behind Jonathan Taylor prior to the injury, with Tyler Goodson and Evan Hull lining up in the pecking order below him.

Impact Sermon is competing with Evan Hull and Tyler Goodson for the backup role. Hull and Goodson may be competing for a limited third-down receiving role and it's not clear both will make the final roster. The Colts showed their confidence in Sermon by not drafting a running back or sign a prominent undrafted free agent to compete for the backup role.

Re-signs with Indy The Colts re-signed Sermon on Thursday, JJ Stankevitz of the team's official site reports.

Impact In 14 games for the Colts during the 2023 regular season, Sermon rushed 35 times (including 17 carries in Week 15) for 160 yards to go along with three catches for 13 yards. With Zack Moss now with the Bengals, Sermon will have a chance to carve out a complementary role behind starter Jonathan Taylor in 2024, but chances are Indianapolis will add further backfield depth via free agency or the draft.

MARCH 14 • ROTOWIRE

Not tendered by Colts Sermon wasn't tendered by the Colts, making him an unrestricted free agent, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Impact Sermon rushed 35 times for 160 yards as a member of the Colts in 2023, but the team didn't retain his rights as a restricted free agent, even after watching fellow running back Zack Moss sign with the Bengals in free agency. Sermon will look to sign with another team and compete for a roster spot in camp.

MARCH 13 • ROTOWIRE

Has 32 yards rushing in win Sermon had five carries for 32 yards and two receptions for nine yards on two targets in Sunday's win over the Raiders.

Impact Sermon played 18 snaps on offense as he got playing time late in the game when Jonathan Taylor was briefly banged up. Sermon looks set to be the primary ball carrier behind Taylor with Zack Moss out, while Tyler Goodson working in a pass catching role among the backup running backs.
