Indianapolis Colts tight end Will Mallory did not participate in the preseason game against the Atlanta Falcons due to a thumb injury. He was seen practicing on Thursday, but the timing of his injury remains unclear. This absence follows the earlier loss of teammate Tyler Warren to a groin strain. Mallory had a strong preseason opener, catching six passes for 80 yards against the Patriots. With fewer reliable targets, the Colts' offense relied heavily on their tight ends, and the recent signing of Keenan Allen might reduce the pressure on Mallory to return quickly.
