Moncrief Questionable for AFC South Clash with Houston

Saturday, Dec. 19

The Indianapolis Star's Stephen Holder explained that while Moncrief is questionable, "the guy I saw limping around yesterday didn't look likely to play."

Moncrief showcased some of his upside in limited opportunities during the 2014 season, when quarterback Andrew Luck targeted him 49 times. Since then, the 22-year-old has come into his own despite some instability under center. 

Through 13 games, the second-year wideout has posted 56 catches for 669 yards and five touchdowns despite competing for catches alongside more established weapons like T.Y. Hilton and Andre Johnson. 

"This guy can make plays," head coach Chuck Pagano said in March, according to Colts.com's Steve Andress. "He’s big. He’s fast. He can stretch the defense, all those types of things."

If there's any good news for the Colts it's that rookie speedster Phillip Dorsett recently returned from a fractured ankle and can provide some upside as a deep threat. 

Griff Whalen has stepped up in spots throughout the season, too, but he's never been a featured member of the Colts offense. However, he may acquire a more sizable role if Moncrief is unable to suit up.
