The Colts placed Jelani Woods on season ending injured reserve while cutting Evan Hull and Laquon Treadwell.
Jelani Woods will now miss two consecutive seasons due to separate injuries. While he’s one of the most physically gifted tight ends ever from an athletic testing perspective, his NFL future is in jeopardy, especially considering that there were reports he was struggling to stand out in the tight end room before suffering his turf-toe injury.
Evan Hull getting cut demonstrates that the Colts have strong faith in Trey Sermon to rebound from the hamstring injury he suffered in the preseason and fill the RB2 role behind Jonathan Taylor. Tyler Goodson remains on the roster as the RB3 and change-of-pace back. The Colts choosing to keep Goodson instead of Hull gives fantasy managers clarity that Hull shouldn’t be on fantasy rosters.
Laquon Treadwell was signed earlier this offseason and always projected as a camp body who wouldn’t stick around for the season. While he’s a former first rounder, he’s now 29 years old and yet to produce a fantasy-relevant season. Treadwell shouldn’t be on fantasy rosters in any format.

Laquon Treadwell has signed with the Indianapolis Colts after a successful workout.
Free agent and former Vikings 1st round pick Laquon Treadwell has inked a deal with the Colts after last being on Baltimore’s roster for the 2023 season where he recorded 1 catch for 16 yards. Treadwell joins a crowded Colts wide receiver room, so his role remains to be seen.
Treadwell signing with the Colts likely is just a camp body and depth as the Colts get camp underway. It is an extremely convoluted path to relevance that he faces after signing in Indy. Treadwell should remain on all waiver wires unless a series of injuries occurs amongst the Colts wide receiver room.
