Zack Moss Fantasy

Indianapolis Colts running back Zack Moss (forearm) is off the injury report completely and will make his 2023 season debut this Sunday against the Houston Texans. After an ineffective start for the team's RBs in the Week 1 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars and with rookie Evan Hull (knee) on Injured Reserve, Moss could have a shot to handle lead-back duties for Indy this weekend. Deon Jackson flopped with 13 carries for 14 yards while adding five catches for 14 yards in the season opener. He also lost two fumbles. Moss might be slightly eased back in after returning from a fractured arm in training camp, but the 25-year-old now has the most upside of Colts RBs in fantasy after he averaged 4.8 yards per carry on 76 rushing attempts for the Colts in 2022. Jonathan Taylor (ankle) isn't eligible to return from IR until Week 5.

The Indianapolis Star's Nate Atkins writes that there is no question Indianapolis Colts running back Zack Moss (forearm) will be the lead back in Week 2 against the Houston Texans if he's healthy. Moss was able to return to practice this week in full on both Wednesday and Thursday, so he appears to be ready to make his season debut this Sunday after missing the season-opening loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars due to a fractured forearm he suffered early in training camp. Rookie Evan Hull (knee) is already on Injured Reserve and Deon Jackson had just 28 total yards on 18 touches and also fumbled twice in Week 1 as the lead back. Even though Moss figures to be the starter this weekend, he'll be more of an RB4/flex in deeper fantasy leagues in his 2023 debut.

Indianapolis Colts running back Zack Moss (forearm) is at practice on Wednesday after missing the season-opening loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. Moss suffered a broken arm early in training camp but is trending toward a return soon. In Week 2, the Colts draw a favorable matchup against the Houston Texans, who have struggled to contain fantasy running backs for the last few years. In Week 18 of last season, Moss rushed 18 times for 114 yards and a touchdown and caught three passes for seven yards against Houston. He finished the week as the RB2 in half-PPR formats with 19.2 fantasy points. If he's ready to go for Week 2, he should be the primary ball carrier after Deon Jackson struggled immensely last week. Moss could be a strong consideration in fantasy lineups until Jonathan Taylor (ankle) returns. UPDATE: Moss was listed as a full participant.
