Ebron (quad) returned to a full practice Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Ebron sat out Wednesday's session, but his return to a full practice Thursday suggests that his absence was maintenance-related. A disappointing one-catch effort in Week 15 aside, Ebron has been one of the better fantasy options at the tight end position this season, having logged 59 catches on 99 targets for 662 yards and 12 TDs in 14 games. He's an obvious bounce-back candidate Sunday against the Giants.

Ebron (quad) did not practice Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Ebron logged 38 of a possible 72 snaps on offense in Week 15's win over the Cowboys, en route to catching just one of his three targets for eight yards. So far there's nothing to suggest that his availability for Sunday's game against the Giants is in any danger, but we'll monitor his status as the week rolls along, nonetheless.

Ebron caught one of three targets for eight yards in Sunday's 23-0 win over the Cowboys.

EDGE Analysis

Ebron surprisingly finished with just three targets, but he hardly made the most of his looks. He had a drop on a play that should have resulted in a big gain and took a big shot on another deep pass. Ebron rolled into the game with 19 catches and three touchdowns over his last three, so this dud performance in a favorable matchup on paper is a bit disappointing. He'll look to get back on track next Sunday against the Giants.

Ebron caught four of eight targets for 65 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-21 win over the Texans.

EDGE Analysis

Ebron gave the Colts the lead for good when he hauled in a 14-yard pass with just under three minutes remaining in the first half. The 25-year-old has now scored in all but four games this season and as a result is a top-ten tight end over the rest of the season. He'll try to reel in another at home Week 15 against Dallas.

Ebron (illness/back) doesn't have a designation on the final injury report for Sunday's game in Houston.

EDGE Analysis

Ebron's absence from practice Wednesday and Thursday was likely a result of his illness more so than a minor back injury. He rejoined his teammates Friday as a full participant, gearing up for the probability of another heavy workload. Already averaging 11.0 targets in the six games Jack Doyle (kidney) has missed, Ebron may be left as Andrew Luck's top weapon Sunday if wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (shoulder) is absent or limited. The Colts have already ruled out WR Dontrelle Inman (shoulder), who averaged 5.4 targets the past five weeks.

Ebron (illness) took part in Friday's practice, according to Kevin Bowen of 1070 The Fan Indianapolis.

EDGE Analysis

Ebron missed the last two days of practice because of his ailment, but it appears he was feeling good enough to get back on the field for the Colts' final session of the week. His participation alone puts him on track to suit up in Week 14, but his official status will be revealed after Friday's practice wraps up.

Ebron remains under the weather as of Thursday, Kevin Bowen of 1070 The Fan Indianapolis reports.

EDGE Analysis

The tight end has also been managing a back issue of late, but his illness is evidently the culprit for his absence from practice Thursday. As long as Ebron practices Friday, in a any capacity, he'll be on track to play Sunday against the Texans.

Ebron (back/illness) did not practice Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Ebron was also held out of practice last Wednesday with a back issue, but practiced fully the next day, so we wouldn't be surprised to see the tight end back on the field Thursday, assuming his illness doesn't linger.

Ebron doesn't appear to be practicing Wednesday, Kevin Bowen of 1070 The Fan Indianapolis reports.

EDGE Analysis

Ebron was held out of practice last Wednesday with a back injury, but he returned to full participation the following day and ended up catching 10 of 16 targets for 81 yards in Sunday's 6-0 loss to the Jaguars. Barring any report of a new injury, he should be headed for another heavy workload Week 14 against a Houston defense that's tied for the eighth most receiving yards (852) allowed to tight end. Ebron is averaging 11 targets in six games with Jack Doyle (IR-kidney) out of the lineup this season.

Ebron caught 10 of 16 targets for 81 yards and lost a fumble in Sunday's 6-0 loss to the Jaguars.

EDGE Analysis

Ebron's fourth-down fumble in the second quarter led to a Jaguars field goal on the ensuing possession. Besides that play, Ebron had a productive day considering his team failed to score any points. The former Lions tight end should see all the targets he can handle the rest of the way with Jack Doyle on injured reserve due to a kidney injury. Indianapolis will face the Texans on the road in Week 14.
