Woods missed the final four games -- including both playoff outings -- after being suspended for violating the NFL's policy on performance-enhancing substances.

Seahawks' Al Woods: Works well as starter
Rotowire
Woods made four tackles (three solo) in Sunday's win over the Steelers.
Woods had a major responsibility in the Seahawks' defense since Poona Ford (calf) and Ezekiel Ansah (shoulder) were out. He did his job as a run stopper, but he ceded most of his pass-rushing opportunities to Quinton Jefferson. As a result, Woods doesn't have much IDP value at the moment.

Rotowire
Woods (foot) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday.
Woods suffered a foot injury during the second half of Sunday's win over the Cowboys, but he won't be able to return from the issue this season and will land on IR as a result. His absence shouldn't have too much of an impact on the Colts' defense, as he's played less than 20 defensive snaps in each of the team's last four games.

Rotowire
Woods was dealing with a knee ailment but won't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Bengals.
Woods was a late addition to the injury report this week, but he was able to return as a full practice participant Friday. Although the 30-year-old has started at nose tackle for the Colts this season, his 18 tackles (10 solo), one sack and reduced snap count give him limited fantasy appeal.

Despite an overall poor day from the Indy defense in a 46-9 loss. Woods fared well against the run as the Colts limited Todd Gurley to just 2.1 yards per carry. Woods won't produce many fantasy stats in his run-stuffing role, however.
