Status in question for Monday Granson (illness) is questionable for Monday's game against the Steelers, Ben Arthur of FoxSports.com reports.

Impact Granson was absent from all three practices of Week 12 prep due to an illness, but the Colts will give him a bit more time before making a decision on his availability. If he's able to suit up Monday, he'll join Mo Alie-Cox and Jelani Woods in a timeshare at tight end for Indianapolis, which so far has resulted in a 25-249-0 line on 32 targets for Granson this season.

Misses another practice Granson (illness) missed practice again Friday.

Impact Granson now has just one more chance to return to practice ahead of Monday's game against the Steelers. If the 2021 fourth-round pick is unable to suit up for the contest, Mo Alie-Cox and Jelani Woods would be in line to handle the bulk of the Colts' available snaps at tight end.

Listed as DNP on practice estimate Granson (illness) was listed as a non-participant in Thursday's walk-through.

Impact The tight end now has two more chances to return to practice before the Colts' final injury report is submitted ahead of Monday night's game against the Steelers. Through 11 contests, Granson -- who caught his only target for 16 yards in last Sunday's loss to the Eagles -- has caught 25 of his 32 targets for 249 yards, but he's been a hit-or-miss option of late, while working in a tight end time share with Mo Alie-Cox and Jelani Woods.

One catch in Week 11 Granson caught his only target for 16 yards in Sunday's 17-16 loss to the Eagles.

Impact Granson has yet to find the end zone in his second NFL season, nor has he carved out a consistent pass-catching role in the Colts' run-first offense. The tight end has been held to two or fewer catches in seven of 11 games heading into a Week 12 home game against the Steelers on Monday Night Football.

NOVEMBER 14, 2022 • COLTS.COM

Four catches against Vegas Granson caught all four of his targets for 57 yards in Sunday's 25-20 win over the Raiders.

Impact With Jelani Woods (shoulder) inactive and Mo Alie-Cox dealing with an ankle injury in practice during the week, Granson wound up with less competition for targets than usual at tight end and had one of his best games of the season. The 2021 fourth-round pick is still looking for his first career TD in the NFL, but he continues to tease some intriguing upside. Even with Matt Ryan back under center for the Colts, however, the team's offense may struggle to move the ball in Week 11 against the Eagles.

NOVEMBER 14, 2022 • COLTS.COM

No receptions in loss Granson did not have a reception and just one target in Sunday's loss at New England.

Impact Mo Alie-Cox got the start at tight end and played more snaps than Granson (34 to 26) but they were closer in routes (19 to Alie-Cox and 17 for Granson). Jelani Woods played 18 snaps before exiting with a shoulder injury. Granson looked to be leading the trio in the passing game, but he took a step back last week and Indy's passing woes make any of the tight ends a long shot each week for viable fantasy value.

NOVEMBER 7, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Three receptions Sunday Granson had three receptions for 11 yards on three targets in Sunday's loss to Washington.

Impact While Mo Alie-Cox got the start at tight end, Granson had the most snaps on offense (32, compared to 29 for Alie-Cox) and went out on about the same number of routes (12, compared 13 for Alie-Cox and 10 for Jelani Woods). There were not any major changes in tight end usage, despite the change to Sam Ehlinger at quarterback. Granson looks to lead the trio, and none of the three are used much except for an occasional end-zone target.

Just one target Sunday Granson had one reception for six yards on his lone target in Sunday's loss at Tennessee.

Impact Granson led Indy's tight ends in routes run (18, compared to 15 for Mo Alie-Cox and 14 for Jelani Woods), but Indy's passing game couldn't get on track. None of the three tight ends were a factor Sunday with a combined two receptions and three targets. Granson still looks like the top receiving tight end, but all three are splitting the targets and there will be games like Sunday where none are a factor.

Practices fully Thursday Granson (neck) practiced fully Thursday.

Impact With his full return to practice Granson is all but locked into Sunday's game against Tennessee. The Colts are committed to forging Granson into their primary pass-catching tight end, though through 23 career games productive results have not yet surfaced.

Limited at practice Granson (neck) was limited at practice Wednesday.

Impact Granson logged 31 of a possible 81 snaps on offense in this past Sunday's win over the Jaguars en route to catching all four of his targets for 38 yards. Through six games, Granson has caught 16 of his 22 targets for 159 yards, while working in a tight end time share that also includes Mo Alie-Cox (11/136/2) and Jelani Woods (5/73/3).

OCTOBER 17, 2022 • COLTS.COM

Leads tight end group in win Granson started at tight end and had four receptions for 38 yards on four targets in Sunday's win over Jacksonville.

Impact Granson got the start, played the most snaps and went out on the most routes among Colts tight ends. He played 31 snaps and ran 25 routes, compared to Jelani Woods (31 snaps, 24 routes) and Mo Alie-Cox (28 snaps, 13 routes). Each TE has alternated big weeks, but Alie-Cox didn't have a target, and Indy appeared to change their game plan to more of a fast-tempo offense. Granson's increase in production may be the start of a trend.

OCTOBER 17, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Limited to one catch Thursday Granson secured one of three targets for 16 yards during the Colts' 12-9 overtime win over Denver on Thursday.

Impact Granson had a season-high four receptions for 62 yards last week against the Titans, but his one catch during Thursday's matchup marked his lowest total of the season. While the Colts had trouble generating much offensive production as a whole against Denver, Granson has been inconsistent over the first five games of the year.

OCTOBER 7, 2022 • COLTS.COM

Four receptions in loss Granson had four receptions for 62 yards on four targets in Sunday's loss to Tennessee.

Impact The Colts played two and three tight ends frequently in the passing game against the Titans (a combined 11 receptions for 170 yards). Granson played on 29 of the offense's 65 snaps and went out on 17 routes which was behind Mo Alie-Cox's 45 snaps and 26 routes and similar to Jelani Woods' 15 snaps and 11 routes. Alie-Cox had two touchdown catches after Woods had two touchdowns the week before. Each week it seems a different tight end is the top option in the passing game, but the larger trend is the Colts may utilize their tight ends more in the passing game with the secondary receivers failing to make a big impressions (most notably Parris Campbell).

Just two receptions Sunday Granson had two receptions for seven yards on two targets in Sunday's win over Kansas City.

Impact After two games, it looked like Granson may emerge as the top tight end in the Colts' passing game and see a larger share of the targets. However, that trend took a step back Week 3. He played fewer snaps (42 to 30) and ran fewer routes (23 to 13) than Mo Alie-Cox, though Granson had more targets (2-1). However, Jelani Woods caught two touchdowns (while running just 12 routes), making him another viable tight end in Indianapolis. The end result is that Granson's role is too small and inconsistent for most fantasy formats.
