Colts' Tyler Goodson: Still lacking opportunities
Goodson didn't log a carry or target during the Colts' 25-24 win over the Patriots on Sunday but returned two kickoffs for 49 yards.
Goodson remains No. 3 on the team's running back depth chart, which, in a backfield dominated by Jonathan Taylor, leaves the former with extremely sparse opportunities most weeks. The Iowa product hasn't had a carry since Week 7 or a target since Week 10. Although he should continue to see work in the return game, an injury to Taylor is likely his only path to touches on offense.

Colts' Tyler Goodson: Not involved on offense Sunday
Goodson returned a kickoff for 25 yards while playing all 14 of his snaps on special teams in Sunday's 24-6 loss to the Lions.
In a game in which Indianapolis logged just 49 offensive snaps, the Colts didn't need to turn to Goodson to spell Jonathan Taylor or Trey Sermon, who remain ahead of him on the depth chart at running back. Barring either Taylor or Sermon missing time to injury, Goodson -- who has logged no carries and four targets over the Colts' last five contests -- doesn't look as though he'll have a role on offense in the final six weeks of the season.

Colts' Tyler Goodson: No snaps on offense
Goodson played 14 snaps on special teams and had 25 return yards and a tackle in Sunday's 24-6 loss to the Lions.
Goodson didn't see the field on offense for the first time this season, but he did have an impact on special teams. He'll likely need an injury in the backfield to see any noticeable work on offense.

Colts' Tyler Goodson: Plays just two snaps in win
Goodson did not have a carry or reception in Sunday's win at the Jets.
Goodson played just two snaps on offense as Jonathan Taylor played on 63 of the offense's 70 snaps. Trey Sermon (five snaps) did play more snaps than Goodson, but it may be Goodson that has more of a role as a pass catcher if the Colts fall far behind. Either way, neither Sermon nor Goodson currently has much of a role if Taylor is fully healthy.

Colts' Tyler Goodson: Has TD catch in loss
Goodson had two receptions for nine yards on two targets, including a two-yard touchdown, in Sunday's loss to Buffalo.
Goodson played nine snaps on offense as he was used in passing situations. However, it was notable that Jonathan Taylor stayed on the field late in the game despite the Colts falling far behind, so it's not certain that Goodson will get more playing time in clear passing situations.

Colts' Tyler Goodson: No touches in Week 9
Goodson failed to record a single carry or target in Sunday's 21-13 loss to the Vikings.
Goodson played just one offensive snap in the contest, matching a season low in the eight games he's played this season. With teammate Jonathan Taylor back to full health, Goodson has reverted to his No. 3 running back role, with teammate Trey Sermon slotting in as the top backup. The 23-year-old should not be considered for fantasy purposes as the Colts host the Bills in Week 10.

Colts' Tyler Goodson: Has drop on only target
Goodson had a drop on his only target in Sunday's loss at Houston.
Goodson played just two snaps on offense, as he and Trey Sermon will have limited backup roles with the return of Jonathan Taylor from an ankle injury. Goodson appeared to move ahead of Sermon in the backfield mix last week with Taylor out, but Sermon played 10 snaps Sunday with Taylor playing 52 snaps. Goodson's pass drop won't help him work his way into the backfield mix as the receiving back, either.

Colts' Tyler Goodson: Scores first career TD
Goodson carried the ball 14 times for 51 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 16-10 win over the Dolphins.
While Trey Sermon got the start in place of Jonathan Taylor (ankle), it was Goodson who had the more productive day out of the backfield, capping his performance with a seven-yard run in the third quarter that resulted in his first career NFL touchdown. Taylor could return in Week 8 for a tilt against the Texans, but if he's not ready to go, coach Shane Steichen might decide to ride the hot hand between Goodson and Sermon again, making both backs volatile fantasy options.

Colts' Tyler Goodson: Efficient in Week 6 win
Goodson rushed eight times for 51 yards and brought in four of five targets for 14 yards in the Colts' 20-17 win over the Titans on Sunday.
Goodson finished with a team-high amount of rushing yards thanks in large part to a game-long 33-yard run. The second-year back was also encouragingly involved as a pass catcher, with his four receptions serving as a career high. If Jonathan Taylor (ankle) is forced to sit out a third consecutive game in next Sunday's home matchup against the Dolphins, Goodson may have earned himself a much closer time share with interim lead back Trey Sermon.
