Ogletree (coach's decision/concussion) is inactive for Sunday's matchup against the Colts.
Ogletree cleared concussion protocols Saturday and didn't have an injury designation, but he still won't suit up Sunday. In his absence, Mo Alie-Cox will presumably see more snaps behind Kylen Granson, but rookie fifth-round pick Will Mallory is also available to make his NFL debut.

Colts' Andrew Ogletree: Set for Sunday
Rotowire
Ogletree was removed from concussion protocol Saturday and does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Texans.
Ogletree wasn't a huge offensive factor in Week 1, but he might take on a larger workload if Kylen Granson, who popped up on the injury report Saturday with a hamstring injury, is unable to play. If he sees action, Ogletree will be making his second appearance in the NFL on Sunday after missing the entire 2022 season due to a torn ACL.

Colts' Andrew Ogletree: Questionable for Week 2
Rotowire
Ogletree (concussion) is listed as questionable for Sunday's Week 2 game against the Texans, Mike Chappell of Fox 59 News Indianapolis reports.
Ogletree was DNP Wednesday, limited Thursday, and then upgraded to full Friday. He just needs to clear the concussion protocol. Ogletree played 21 percent of the offensive snaps in Week 1's loss to the Jaguars. Kylen Granson was in on a position-best 61 percent of the downs and turned six targets into a scoreless 4-39-0 effort.

Colts' Andrew Ogletree: Limited at practice Thursday
Rotowire
Ogletree (concussion) participated in limited fashion at practice Thursday.
Ogletree was placed in concussion protocol after suffering a blow to the head in the first half of Sunday's season opener against Jacksonville. His ability to take the field Thursday is a promising sign, though he was wearing a red non-contact jersey, suggesting it's uncertain he'll be able to play Week 2.

Colts' Andrew Ogletree: Making progress
Rotowire
Ogletree (concussion) is practicing Thursday, but he's wearing a red non-contact jersey, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.
Ogletree suffered a concussion in Sunday's loss to the Jaguars and still seems to be moving through the league's five-step protocols in order to gain clearance to return to action. The second-year pro will need to complete those steps to suit up Sunday against the Texans.

Colts' Andrew Ogletree: Still in concussion protocol
Rotowire
Ogletree (concussion) remains in the NFL's concussion protocol as the Colts begin Week 2 prep Wednesday, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.
Ogletree will need to clear the league's five-step concussion protocol to return to action Sunday in Houston after suffering a blow to the head in the season opener against Jacksonville this past weekend. At this stage, Ogletree seems to be trending toward sitting out Week 2, which would further deplete a Colts tight-end room already without Jelani Woods (hamstring). An Ogletree absence would leave Kylen Granson and Mo Alie-Cox as the leaders in the position group.

Colts' Andrew Ogletree: Misses practice with knee injury
Rotowire
Ogletree (knee) missed practice Tuesday, the Indianapolis Star reports.
Ogletree didn't play in Indy's first preseason game and this may be why. He's coming back from a torn ACL that occurred during last year's training camp, so his health remains something to monitor this summer. He likely faces an uphill battle to win a roster spot amid crowded competition at tight end.

Rotowire
Ogletree (knee) was seen at camp Saturday and saw first-team offensive reps, Kevin Bowen of 107.5 The Fan Indianapolis reports.
Ogletree, who hadn't participated in any offseason activities following a torn ACL during last year's training camp, seems healthy and was spotted taking first-team reps. Getting on the field is of course a step in the right direction, but there is still work to be done for the 25-year-old, as he is competing for a roster spot against a plethora of tight ends.

Ogletree, who tore his ACL during training camp last season, hasn't practiced in offseason OTAs to date.

Colts' Andrew Ogletree: Unavailable for practice
Rotowire
Ogletree (knee) remains sidelined at the Colts' OTAs, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.
Ogletree suffered a torn ACL at practice last August and he's been slowly recovering since. Instead of rushing their second-year tight end back, the Colts seem adamant in taking their time with Ogletree. Once healthy, the 24-year-old will look to compete with the likes of Kylen Granson and Mo Alie-Cox for the reserve role behind starter Jelani Woods (hamstring).

Colts' Andrew Ogletree: Moved to IR
Rotowire
The Colts placed Ogletree (knee) on injured reserve Thursday.
This transaction will officially sideline Ogletree for the entirety of his rookie season after he suffered a torn ACL during practice Wednesday. The 2022 sixth-round pick managed to turn some heads with his impressive performance during his first training camp with Indianapolis, though he will now have to turn his focus toward his recovery heading into the 2023 regular season.
