Analysis

Granson played the most snaps of Indy's three tight ends (Mo Alie-Cox had 18 snaps and Drew Ogletree had 14 snaps), but the trio amassed just three receptions and four targets for 43 yards after no tight end had a reception Week 1. With the Colts using a more vertical passing attack than last season, none of the team's tight ends may get significant targets.

Analysis

Granson played on 25 of the offense's 45 snaps but went out on just 13 routes, per Pro Football Focus. Mo Alie-Cox got the start at tight end but also had one target. With the Colts using a more vertical passing attack than last season, none of the Colts' tight ends may get significant targets.

Analysis

Granson was the intended receiver on Anthony Richardson's pick six on the second drive, which was the result of a miscommunication between the quarterback and tight end. Despite that miscue, it was encouraging that Granson got the lion's share of playing time in the five possessions that Richardson and the first-team offense played, finishing as one of three players to catch multiple passes from Richardson. After leading all Colts tight ends with 368 receiving yards in 2023, Granson appears positioned to earn his share of targets this coming season.

Analysis

He's competing with Drew Ogletree, Mo Alie-Cox, Jelani Woods and Will Mallory for playing time. Granson was the most productive member of a crowded Colts tight end room last season, posting 30 catches for 368 yards and one touchdown on 50 targets. However, the Colts split targets between three tight ends last year and that pattern could continue this season.
