2024 Fantasy Outlook
Blackmon tallied career-high marks across the board last season, emerging as one of the more dependable players in the Indianapolis secondary. He racked up 88 tackles (65 solo), eight passes defensed with four interceptions and two fumble recoveries in 15 games. Blackmon missed the last two games of the year due to a shoulder injury, but was back to full speed in spring workouts. He's set to start at strong safety. Read Past Outlooks
Solid in road loss
Blackmon recorded eight tackles (six solo) during Sunday's 23-20 loss at Houston.
ANALYSIS
Sunday's game was Blackmon's second straight collecting at least eight tackles, bringing his total on the season up to 49. That's good enough for IDP consideration in some formats heading into a Week 9 tilt at Minnesota.

Past Fantasy Outlooks

2021
2020
Blackmon, who had 50 tackles and an interception last season, has been adept as a tackler and has held his own in coverage but has had trouble staying on the field over the last two campaigns. The 2020 third-rounder was limited to six games in 2021 due to an Achilles injury and this past season he missed three games and parts of another due to an ankle injury. He'll reprise his role as a starting safety for the Colts in 2023.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Bills could be good fit
Blackmon, who remains a free agent, could fit well in a revamped defensive backfield in Buffalo, Nick Shook of NFL.com suggests.
ANALYSIS
Blackmon is still only 26, meaning he'd provide quite the infusion of youth for Buffalo's defense after the departure of veteran safety tandem Micah Hyde and Jordan Poyer. Additionally, Blackmon recorded a career-high four interceptions while allowing a career-low 47.8 percent completion rate in primary coverage for the Colts in 2023, making him a potentially undervalued option.
