Tyler Warren tweaked his groin in practice on Friday and did not play; he had a groin injury in the preseason, making this a re-aggravation; re-aggravations of groin strains average about three weeks out, so this is most likely a multi-week injury; re-aggravations tend to be more severe than the original injury and carry high re-aggravation risk going forward, so he would likely miss at least another week.NegativeInjuryOct 19, 2026

Tyler Warren is included as the number 9 player on Pat Fitzmaurice's top 10 fantasy football league winners list for 2026, indicating Fitzmaurice views him as a breakout candidate with league-winning upside.NegativeProjectionJul 28, 2026
Pat Fitzmaurice highlights Tyler Warren as a league winner, noting the injury concern is with QB Daniel Jones, not Warren himself. Over the first 11 games of Warren's rookie season (before Jones' fibula fracture in late November), Warren averaged five catches and 60 receiving yards per game and was tight end three in fantasy scoring. After Jones' injuries (fibula fracture then Achilles tear), Warren's production declined but he still finished with 76 catches for 817 yards and five touchdowns, finishing tight end five. Warren led the Colts in targets with 112; Michael Pittman (who had 111 targets) left for Pittsburgh, and the Colts made no significant WR additions. Warren has an excellent chance to lead the Colts in targets again and adds value as a runner (eight carries, one rushing TD last year; four rushing TDs in his final college season at Penn State with 104 catches for 1,233 yards and 12 total TDs). Warren could have an even better second season with reduced target competition and is one of a handful of tight ends who could lead their team in targets.PositiveBreakoutJul 17, 2026
