2024 Fantasy Outlook
Goodson emerged as a third-down back for the Colts late last season after several injuries in the backfield. He had six receptions for 34 yards and 13 carries for 87 yards in six games. His season ended on a sour note, however, as the last meaningful play of a Week 18 must-win game for Indianapolis was a dropped pass by Goodson that would have extended a potential game-winning drive with just over a minute to play. Goodson, Trey Sermon and Evan Hull will compete for the backup job to Jonathan Taylor this summer. While he weighs less than 200 pounds and has taken just 19 regular-season touches since going undrafted in 2022, it wouldn't be shocking if Goodson challenged Hull for a role as the two-minute/hurry-up back. Goodson ran a 4.42 at the 2022 Combine, after piling up 2,551 rushing yards and 70 receptions in three seasons at Iowa. Read Past Outlooks
RANKS
Minimal role on offense
Goodson had one reception for two yards on his lone target in Sunday's 16-10 loss to the Packers.
ANALYSIS
Goodson played on just nine of the offense's 56 snaps but got most of his usage late in the fourth quarter when the Colts were playing from behind. Jonathan Taylor was surprisingly on the bench late in the game after some drops earlier in the contest, so Trey Sermon and Tyler Goodson could see more of a role in the passing game in the short term. Goodson didn't play on offense in Week 1.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Projected cut, per Boyd
James Boyd of The Athletic predicts that Goodson won't make the Colts' 53-man roster.
ANALYSIS
Goodson appeared in six games for the Colts in 2023, but despite the team parting ways with top backup Zack Moss in the offseason, Goodson could find himself on the outside looking in for the Week 1 roster. Boyd expects Indianapolis to keep Trey Sermon and Evan Hull over Goodson as Jonathan Taylor's backups.
