Mallory had two receptions for 31 yards on two targets in Sunday's preseason loss to Denver.
Mallory had missed time in training camp due to a sore hamstring but looked back to full speed. He's competing with Jelani Woods, Kylen Granson, Mo Alie-Cox and Drew Ogletree for playing time in a deep tight end room that lacks a clear No. 1 option. Indy's first preseason game did little to sort the competition other than all five are healthy.
