Colts' Will Mallory: Won't return for Week 5
Mallory (thumb) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Steelers.
Mallory was designated to return to practice Wednesday. The tight end remains on injured reserve with a thumb injury but was able to log full practice sessions throughout Week 5 prep. The 27-year-old likely has not yet adjusted to NFL physicality enough for the Colts to allow him to suit up for Sunday's contest.

Colts' Will Mallory: Still practicing in full Thursday
Mallory (thumb) was a full participant at practice Thursday.
Mallory's 21-day practice window to be activated from IR was opened by the Colts Wednesday, and it seems like he could be trending towards being available in Week 5. Indianapolis' final injury report of the week Friday will shed more light on his status ahead of Sunday's game at Pittsburgh.

Colts' Will Mallory: Returns to practice Wednesday
Colts head coach Shane Steichen said that Mallory (thumb) will have his 21-day practice window opened Wednesday, Nathan Brown of The Indianapolis Star reports.
After sustaining a thumb injury in August, Mallory was sent to injured reserve at the conclusion of the preseason. The 27-year-old has made good progress in his recovery, and after missing the minimum four games, the Colts have decided to clear him to practice at the first opportunity in which he's eligible to do so. Mallory could make his 2026 debut as soon as this Sunday in Pittsburgh, though he'll likely struggle to earn playing time behind fellow tight ends Tyler Warren, Mo Alie-Cox and Drew Ogletree.

Colts' Will Mallory: Opening season on IR
Mallory (thumb) was placed on injured reserve by the Colts on Sunday with a designation to return, JJ Stankevitz of the team's official website reports.
Mallory suffered a thumb injury, and he sat out the team's last two games of the preseason. The tight end will now be forced to miss at least four contests to open the 2026 campaign, and the earliest he'll be able to make his regular-season debut is in Week 5 against the Steelers on Oct. 11.

Colts' Will Mallory: Dealing with thumb injury
Mallory did not play in the Colts' 34-6 preseason loss to the Falcons on Saturday due to a thumb injury, Joel A. Erickson of The Indianapolis Star reports.
It's unclear when Mallory picked up the injury, as he was a full participant in Thursday's training camp practice. How his thumb responds to treatment over the coming days will determine whether he'll be available for the Colts' preseason finale against the Lions next Saturday. In the Colts' preseason opener against the Patriots, Mallory caught six passes on seven targets for 80 yards.

Colts' Will Mallory: On field for OTAs
Mallory (lung) is participating during the Colts' OTAs, Kevin Bowen of 107.5 The Fan reports.
Mallory was able to appear in only two games in 2025 in part due to a lung issue, but he's evidently back in shape for football activities with offseason workouts underway. With 2025 first-rounder Tyler Warren, veteran Mo Alie-Cox and in-line specialist Drew Ogletree all returning in 2026, Mallory will have to compete for a spot on Indianapolis' final 53-man roster.

Colts' Will Mallory: Won't play Week 18
Mallory (lung) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Texans, Amanda Foster of the Colts' official site reports.
Mallory was unable to practice Wednesday or Thursday and is now in line to miss the Week 18 divisional matchup due to a lung issue. The third-year pro from Miami appeared in just two games for Indianapolis this season, catching his lone target for 16 yards across 16 offensive snaps. While Mallory is sidelined Sunday, expect Tyler Warren and Mo Alie-Cox to serve as the Colts' top tight ends.

Colts' Will Mallory: Deemed DNP with lung injury
Mallory (lung) was estimated as a non-participant in Wednesday's practice walkthrough.
It's not clear when Mallory was hurt, though it may have been Sunday against Jacksonville, when he logged a season-high 11 offensive snaps and made his first catch of the campaign. With the Colts officially eliminated from playoff contention, Mallory could see more work Sunday versus Houston if he's able to suit up, but the lung issue could throw a wrench in that potential opportunity. Mallory will have two more days this week to get onto the practice field before Indianapolis assigns injury designations.

Colts' Will Mallory: Inactive again for Week 10
Mallory (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Falcons in Berlin.
Mallory has been a regular on the Colts' inactive list, having suited up for just one game all season (Week 5 against the Raiders) and playing five total snaps in that contest. He'll continue to be in street clothes on game days so long as the Colts' top three tight ends -- Tyler Warren, Mo Alie-Cox and Drew Ogletree -- are all available.

Colts' Will Mallory: Inactive for Week 4
Mallory (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's Week 4 matchup against the Rams.
The third-year tight end has yet to garner active status this season through four games. Mallory is a clear No. 4 on the depth chart for the time being, slotting in behind star first-round rookie Tyler Warren and veterans Mo Alie-Cox and Drew Ogletree.

Colts' Will Mallory: Healthy scratch Week 2
Mallory (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Broncos.
Mallory will be a healthy scratch for a second straight week, and his next chance to play is Week 3 against the Titans on Sunday, Sept. 21. Mo Alie-Cox and Drew Ogletree will serve as the Colts' backup tight ends behind rookie first-rounder Tyler Warren.

Colts' Will Mallory: Healthy inactive
Mallory is inactive for Sunday's season opener against Miami due to a coach's decision, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.
Mallory had a good showing in training camp by all accounts, but he enters the season fourth on the depth chart at tight end and may not be active most game days. Mallory has receiving skills, but no tight end other than Tyler Warren may be a significant factor in the passing game.

Colts' Will Mallory: Having strong training camp
Mallory had one reception for 11 yards on three targets in Saturday's preseason loss to Green Bay. He's had an impressive training camp that could help him win a roster spot, 93.5 The Fan Indianapolis reports.
If the Colts keep four tight ends, Mallory is likely battling Jelani Woods and Drew Ogletree for the final spot. Mallory has showed off his receiving ability in training camp, but no tight end other than Tyler Warren may be a significant factor in the passing game.
