Christine Michael News
Indianapolis Colts running back Christine Michael was released on Monday, according to Field Yates of ESPN. Despite showing well in the preseason, Michael was buried on the Colts running back depth chart behind sophomore Marlon Mack and rookie rushers Jordan Wilkins and Nyheim Hines. This news bodes well for Mack's fantasy owners, who are hoping the presumed lead back in this offense is recovering well from his hamstring and foot problems. Michael finishes his brief 2018 stint with the Colts having rushed twice for nine yards across two games.
Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (quadriceps) and running back Christine Michael (illness) both practiced in full on Friday and have been taken off the final Week 3 injury report against the Eagles. Hilton will once again be quarterback Andrew Luck's favorite target this weekend, especially with tight end Jack Doyle (hip) out. Hilton has seen a healthy 22 targets through two weeks and remains a strong WR2 option despite the less-than-ideal matchup. Michael should see more work behind rookies Jordan Wilkins and Nyheim Hines with Marlon Mack out, but Michael isn't a realistic starting option for fantasy owners.
Indianapolis Colts running back Christine Michael is inactive in Week 2 against the Redskins. With Marlon Mack returning to make his season debut, Michael is the odd man out behind rookies Jordan Wilkins and Nyheim Hines. The Colts should work Mack back into the rotation in this committee backfield, and while he should see most of the work, this backfield is too unpredictable right now to trust for fantasy owners. Avoid it if you can.
