From the episode

When you're pushing the ball down the field to Laquan Treadwell, it matters a little bit less. It's just not the same.

STACKED’s take

Treadwell filling in for injured Pierce; less effective as downfield target.

Laquan Treadwell is being used as a downfield target for the Colts in the absence of Alec Pierce. However, the source notes that throwing downfield to Treadwell is not as effective as it would be to Pierce, suggesting Treadwell is a secondary option rather than the ideal target for the Colts' deep-ball scheme.
