QUARTERBACKS
| Player | Att. | Comp. | Yards | TD | INT | Rush | Yards | TD | Points | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Philip Rivers | 502.3 | 330.3 | 3742.1 | 24.86 | 14.32 | 16.3 | 24.5 | 0.08 | 223.41 | |
| Reaching the 20-interception mark for the third time in his career, Rivers also set a 12-year low with 23 touchdowns in 2019. Will a change of scenery and a reunion with Frank Reich and Nick Sirianni help the 38-year-old quarterback bounce back in 2020? Given what he showed last season, fantasy owners should temper expectations. | ||||||||||
| Jacoby Brissett | 32.1 | 19.6 | 216.7 | 1.28 | 0.45 | 9.3 | 35.3 | 0.28 | 18.1 | |
RUNNING BACKS
| Player | Att. | Yards | TD | Rec. | Yards | TD | Points | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Jonathan Taylor | 207.3 | 932.9 | 7.26 | 15.4 | 110.9 | 0.46 | 150.7 | |
| While Marlon Mack may enter the season as the starter, the Colts will "ride the hot hand" and a shift to Taylor getting the larger share of the workload at some point in the season would be a realistic expectation. The most prolific collegiate running back ever over a three-year span, Taylor has shown the ability and durability to handle a workhorse role and possesses a rare combination of speed (sub-4.4) for his size (226 pounds). | ||||||||
| Marlon Mack | 177 | 787.7 | 5.31 | 8.5 | 54.4 | 0.34 | 118.11 | |
| Posting his first-ever 1,000-yard rushing season on a career-high 247 carries, Mack also set a career low in receptions (14) and targets (17). Entering the final year of his rookie deal, Mack will cede more work to rookie Jonathan Taylor as the season progresses. | ||||||||
| Nyheim Hines | 37.3 | 139.9 | 1.12 | 46 | 328.9 | 1.15 | 60.5 | |
| With Taylor and Mack dominating early-down work, Hines will still be a factor on third downs. Earlier this offseason, Frank Reich said that "it wouldn’t surprise me if there’s a game this season that Nyheim Hines has 10 catches." | ||||||||
| Jordan Wilkins | 10.5 | 48.3 | 0.26 | 1.8 | 10.4 | 0.05 | 7.73 | |
| Roosevelt Nix | 1.2 | 1.2 | 0.05 | 2.7 | 15.7 | 0.14 | 2.83 | |

WIDE RECEIVERS
| Player | Rec. | Yards | TD | Rush | Yards | TD | Points | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| T.Y. Hilton | 71.6 | 995.2 | 6.09 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 136.06 | |
| Injuries derailed what could have been another productive season for Hilton, who missed a total of six games and played with a calf tear down the stretch. When healthy, Hilton, fourth on the Colts all-time receiving list, is a WR2 with upside. Offensive coordinator Nick Sirianni has said that he "expect(s) the 2018 version" of Hilton. | ||||||||
| Michael Pittman Jr. | 51.2 | 670.7 | 5.38 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 99.35 | |
| The Colts used the 34th-overall pick on Pittman, who has great size (6'4", 223 pounds) to win in contested-catch and red-zone situations and is an underrated athlete (4.52 forty). While the passing offense goes through Hilton, when healthy, it wouldn't be a surprise if Pittman led the team in receiving touchdowns as a rookie. | ||||||||
| Parris Campbell | 44.5 | 498.4 | 3.34 | 4.7 | 21.6 | 0.05 | 72.34 | |
| Campbell missed the majority (nine games) of the season due to a variety of ailments. The second-rounder from Ohio State finished 2019 with 161 scrimmage yards (127 receiving and 34 rushing) on 22 touches (18 receptions and four carries). | ||||||||
| Zach Pascal | 21.3 | 280.1 | 1.92 | 2.3 | 11.3 | 0.02 | 40.78 | |
| Dezmon Patton | 7.4 | 79.9 | 0.44 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 10.63 | |
| Marcus Johnson | 2.2 | 31.2 | 0.2 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 4.32 | |
TIGHT ENDS
| Player | Rec. | Yards | TD | Rush | Yards | TD | Points | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Jack Doyle | 48.4 | 496.1 | 4.11 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 74.27 | |
| Few teams target tight ends the way the Colts do, so it would be reasonable to expect year-over-year improvement from Doyle's 43/448/4 campaign in 2019 with Eric Ebron now in Pittsburgh. | ||||||||
| Trey Burton | 23.9 | 235.4 | 1.91 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 35 | |
| Head coach Frank Reich recently said that Burton is "going to have a really productive year." In this TE-friendly offense, Burton has a chance to significantly exceed expectations if his health cooperates. | ||||||||
| Mo Alie-Cox | 10.9 | 133 | 0.98 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 19.18 | |
