Colts injury worry centers on Tyler Goodson, limited with an elbow issue as Indianapolis hosts Miami. If Goodson can’t go, DJ Giddens stands by behind Jonathan Taylor, who’s expected to lead the backfield. Goodson’s 2024 line was modest but versatile: 32 rushes for 153 yards with a rushing TD and 11 grabs for 61 yards with another score. Miami’s side brings calf/oblique concerns for De’Von Achane and Tyreek Hill, and Miami entered the week with 12 players on the injury report, including backups like Ollie Gordon II who could be leaned on if Achane misses.

Fantasy angles center on whether Goodson suits up, the Colts’ reliance on Taylor, and how Miami’s backfield and pass-game targets shift if Achane or Hill aren’t fully healthy. Nick Cross and Josh Downs are noted as part of Colts’ recovery progress, while Chiefs-like depth charts could tilt in Week 1 against a Dolphins squad with multiple injury ticks.
