Drew Ogletree - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Ends 2025 on IR Ogletree finished his 2025 campaign with four receptions for 27 yards and one touchdown. The tight end suffered a neck injury in Week 17 against the 49ers that ended his season.

Impact Ogletree was a pivotal special-teams player for the Colts, logging 68% of snaps or better in every contest he played in until he suffered his neck injury. The 2022 sixth-round pick's injury came at an unfortunate time in his career, as the 27-year-old will enter 2026 as an unrestricted free agent coming off an injury.

Lands on IR The Colts placed Ogletree (neck) on injured reserve Saturday.

Impact Ogletree will miss at least Indianapolis' next four games due to a neck injury suffered during the team's Week 16 loss to San Francisco. If the Colts manage to make a deep playoff run, the depth tight end could be a candidate to retake the field late January.

Out for Sunday Ogletree (neck) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Jaguars, Kevin Bowen of 107.5 The Fan Indianapolis reports.

Impact The Youngstown State product opened the Colts' week of practice with consecutive DNPs after sustaining a neck injury in the Week 16 loss to the 49ers, so it's no surprise that he won't play Sunday. Ogletree has appeared in 15 games this season, catching four of six targets for 27 yards and a touchdown. Expect Will Mallory to operate as Indianapolis' No. 3 tight end in Ogletree's stead in Week 17.

Listed as DNP to open Week 17 prep The Colts listed Ogletree (neck) as a DNP on Wednesday's estimated practice report.

Impact Ogletree sustained a neck injury during the Colts' loss to the 49ers on Sunday. The injury prevented him from participating in Wednesday's walkthrough, and the fourth-year tight end will have two more opportunities to return to practice ahead of Sunday's home game against the Jaguars.

Exits MNF with neck injury Ogletree (neck) is questionable to return to Monday's game against the 49ers, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.

Impact It's unclear when Ogletree sustained the injury, but he's being evaluated by medical staff to determine whether he can return to Sunday's game. Mo Alie-Cox will see a small uptick in offensive snaps at tight end behind rookie Tyler Warren for as long as Ogletree is out of the game.

Nabs touchdown catch in loss Ogletree had two receptions for eight yards, including a four-yard touchdown, on three targets in Sunday's loss at Kansas City.

Impact Ogletree's performance came out of nowhere as he had just one target all season before Sunday. He played about his usual number of snaps on offense (11 of the offense's 51 snaps), so this may be an outlier performance. However, the Colts were coming off a bye week so there's a chance the coaching staff planned to make him more a part of the passing game going forward.

Plays all 17 games in 2024 Ogletree secured nine of 14 targets for 109 yards and one touchdown across 17 regular-season appearances with the Colts in 2024.

Impact Ogletree suited up for all 17 regular-season games for the first time in his career Year 3, playing a consistent depth role for the Colts' offense. At 6-foot-5, 260 pounds, Ogletree is best suited to contribute as a blocker at the tight end position. He's heading into the final year of his rookie deal with Indianapolis.

Two receptions in win Ogletree had two receptions for 24 yards on two targets in Sunday's win at Tennessee.

Impact He played on 21 of the offense's 70 snaps (Mo Alie-Cox played 34 and Kylen Granson played 17) and had the second most targets (Alie-Cox had four) among tight ends. While Alie-Cox has had a few more targets with Joe Flacco at quarterback, the Colts continue to divide the workload relatively evenly between three our four tight ends, which limits Ogletree's upside.

OCTOBER 14, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Just one reception in loss Ogletree had one reception for five yards on his only target in Sunday's loss at Jacksonville.

Impact Ogletree played on 26 of the offense's 70 snaps and went out on nine routes. The Colts continue to divide targets and snaps between three tight ends (Kylen Granson played 18 snaps, Mo Alie-Cox played 29, Will Mallory played 16). Alie-Cox caught a touchdown in the loss where Ogletree caught a touchdown in Week 4. As long as the workload is divided between three our four tight ends, none will have viable fantasy value for most formats.
