• Colts' Trey Sermon: Minimal involvement in Week 1 loss

  7D ago • By RotoWire

  Sermon did not log a rushing attempt or draw a target during Sunday's 29-27 loss to the Texans. Sermon handled the No. 2 role behind Jonathan Taylor versus Houston, playing five offensive snaps while Tyler Goodson didn't take the field. No running back aside from Taylor, who rushed 16 times for 48 yards and a touchdown, factored into the game plan for Indianapolis' opener, but Sermon should mix in more frequently going forward. More opportunities could come Week 2 against a Packers defense that allowed 132 yards from scrimmage and three TDs to Saquon Barkley in Week 1.

• Colts' Trey Sermon: Not on injury report

  12D ago • By RotoWire

  Sermon (hamstring) wasn't listed on the Colts' injury report Wednesday. Sermon has evidently moved past the hamstring issue that sidelined him last month, and as a result is in line to be available to back up starting running back Jonathan Taylor in Sunday's season opener versus the Texans. Tyler Goodson is also on hand as a reserve option, though neither Sermon or Goodson is likely to garner a high volume of weekly touches as long as Taylor is available.

• Colts' Trey Sermon: Returns to practice

  19D ago • By RotoWire

  Sermon (hamstring) returned to practice Wednesday, Nate Atkins of The Indianapolis Star reports. Sermon injured his hamstring Aug. 11 during the Colts' preseason opener, after reports from the first two weeks of training camp suggested he was the favorite for the No. 2 role in the backfield. He's now one of three backs on the roster after Tuesday's cutdowns, joined by starter Jonathan Taylor and 23-year-old Tyler Goodson. As the roster currently stands, Sermon presumably would get most of the carries in the event of a Taylor injury, with Goodson then handling passing situations and more of the targets.

• Colts' Trey Sermon: Misses another week

  24D ago • By RotoWire

  Sermon (hamstring) didn't play in Thursday's 27-14 preseason win over the Bengals. James Boyd of The Athletic expects Sermon to have a spot on the initial 53-man roster despite missing the final two preseason games and the past couple weeks of practice. The running back was injured during the first quarter of the Colts' preseason opener, after reports out of training camp pegged him as a favorite for the second spot on the depth chart. It's a role that doesn't figure to entail many touches when Jonathan Taylor is healthy, and there's some chance Sermon's absence will lead the Colts to turn to Evan Hull and/or Tyler Goodson instead. The team may even put Sermon on injured reserve if he won't be ready for Week 1, in which case he'd be ruled out for the first four games of the season.

  28D ago • By RotoWire

  Sermon (hamstring) did not play in Saturday's preseason win over Arizona. Sermon left Indy's first preseason game Sunday with a hamstring injury. The severity of the injury isn't clear, but it's thought he'll be ready for the start of the regular season. Sermon had been the leader for the No. 2 RB role behind Jonathan Taylor prior to the injury, with Tyler Goodson and Evan Hull competing for the No. 3 role.
