Lands on IR
The Colts placed Kelly on injured reserve Tuesday with a knee injury.
ANALYSIS
Kelly had been listed on the Colts' Week 9 injury report with knee and calf injuries, but he played every snap in this past Sunday's loss to the Vikings. His condition may have worsened during the game, however, and while Kelly's knee injury isn't expected to be season-ending, he'll be sidelined for the next four games after being placed on IR. In Kelly's absence, rookie fourth-round pick Tanor Bortolini is expected to take over as the Colts' starting center.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Hoping for extension
Kelly is hoping to remain with the Colts after his contract expires at the end of the 2024 season, Joel A. Erickson of the Indianapolis Star reports. "I want to stay here," Kelly said. "It's my ninth year here, it's the last year of my contract, and I'd be lying if I said I didn't want another one."
ANALYSIS
Kelly has spent his entire career with the Colts since Indianapolis drafted him 18th overall in the 2016 NFL Draft. He has made 111 starts overall while being named to the Pro Bowl in four of the past five seasons. Extension talks haven't yet begun between the team and the center, who will be 31 years old at the start of the 2024 campaign.
