Kamar Aiken catches 25-yard pass in Colts’ preseason loss.

It was Aiken’s only reception of the exhibition, but he had the best game out of everyone competing for the third receiver job. He won’t be a consistent fantasy option with T.Y. Hilton and Donte Moncrief healthy.

Phillip Dorsett caught two passes for 15 yards in the Colts’ preseason loss to the Cowboys.

Dorsett is competing for the team’s third receiver job, but even if he wins it, not much fantasy value should come out of it. A trade candidate heading into the regular season, a change of scenery would probably be the best thing for Dorsett’s fantasy value and career.

Jack Doyle caught three passes for 12 yards in Saturday night’s preseason game.

Doyle and the rest of the skill position players for Indianapolis could really use Andrew Luck back, and their early-season fantasy value will be determined on the health of the superstar quarterback. Hopefully you can hold your fantasy draft as late as possible to get a good idea about Luck’s health. If not, you might want to let someone else take Doyle.

Frank Gore plays in Colts’ second preseason game.

Indy’s starter rushed twice for four yards before resting for the night. Having turned 34 earlier this year, Gore is a risky fantasy pick in the middle rounds, though he did rush for 1,025 yards in 2016. Andrew Luck being ready for Week 1 would be a big boost to the entire offense.

Marlon Mack makes an impact in second preseason game.

Mack rushed five times for 45 yards and caught two passes for 14 yards in the loss. It’s worth noting that new general manager Chris Ballard handpicked Mack in this year’s draft, and he should push Robert Turbin for backup duties behind Frank Gore. The rookie might even unseat Gore eventually depending on how the veteran starts out this season. He is a good late-round pick.

Stephen Morris was 11/15 for 111 yards and one touchdown in the Colts’ preseason loss to Dallas.

Morris was the third quarterback in the game behind Scott Tolzien and Phillip Walker, and threw his touchdown in the fourth quarter to Fred Brown. The Colts should keep three quarterbacks on the roster because of Andrew Luck’s offseason shoulder surgery, but we would say Walker is the favorite for the third spot.

Jordan Leggett caught two passes for 40 yards in the Jets’ preseason loss.

Leggett was second on the team in receiving on Saturday night, and he could be a regular contributor for a team lacking offensive talent. Rookie tight ends usually struggle to put up good numbers, but we liked Leggett more than most people coming out of Clemson. Still, there are plenty of other tight ends you should target instead of him in 2017.
