Colts Get Major Tyler Warren Update After Late Addition to Injury Report
For much of the 2025 campaign, the Indianapolis Colts have appeared to be running away with the AFC South division. Heading into Week 13, though, their grip on the top spot in the division appears to be loosening. The Jacksonville Jaguars and Houston Texans are breathing down their necks, and injury issues are beginning to pile up.
As if the team didn’t have enough to worry about heading into this one, star rookie tight end Tyler Warren was a late addition to the team’s injury report on Saturday, as he’s reportedly battling a stomach virus. With kickoff quickly approaching, the Colts have received a major update on Warren’s status for the team’s important divisional clash with the Texans.
Tyler Warren Expected to Suit Up for Colts in Week 13

The past week hasn’t exactly been good for Indianapolis. After suffering an overtime loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, the team was dealt a concerning update regarding quarterback Daniel Jones’ health, as he is reportedly dealing with a fracture in his fibula. While the injury isn’t expected to hold him off the field for the time being (he has no injury designation ahead of Week 13), it figures to have an impact on him moving forward.
Then, on Saturday, Indy had another problem to deal with involving Warren. The No. 14 overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, Warren has put together a standout rookie campaign for the Colts, as he’s caught 55 passes for 662 yards and four total touchdowns through the first 11 games of his career.
Being without Warren for a very important contest against the Texans would obviously not be ideal, and his late addition to the injury report was a concerning development for the Colts. According to a recent report, though, it sounds like Warren is going to try to play through a stomach virus that he recently came down with.
“I’m told Warren is battling a stomach issue,” Tom Pelissero said on “NFL GameDay.” “They’ll reevaluate him this morning. Nothing firm yet, but cautious optimism the rookie sensation will go in a huge game against the Texans.”
Colts Need to Get Back in the Win Column to Protect AFC South Lead

Having Warren on the field could make a huge difference for the Colts, as the Texans’ defense is one of the best units in the league. And while he may not be at 100%, just the threat of him ripping off a big play is enough to keep Houston wary of him, as he has shown what he is capable of time and again this season.
Given the recent success the Jags and Texans have enjoyed, this game has quickly become very important for Indianapolis. Win, and it can at least put some serious between itself and Houston. Lose, and the division will suddenly become very much up for grabs. Nothing is official yet when it comes to Warren’s status, but it’s looking increasingly likely he will be on the field when the Colts take on the Texans at 1 p.m. ET on Sunday afternoon.
‘The Eagles Didn’t Stand a Chance’: Richard Sherman Applauds Bears’ Powerful Performance
After the Chicago Bears’ dominant victory over the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 13, the football world is still buzzing about the shocking turnaround. One of the most resounding endorsements came from NFL legend
“The Bears showed everyone exactly what they’re capable of tonight,” Sherman said.
Sherman’s comments come after a performance that saw the Bears not just defeat the Eagles, but completely control the game on both sides of the ball. Chicago’s defense was suffocating, forcing mistakes and creating turnovers, while the offense was methodical, grinding down the clock and piling up crucial yardage. It was a performance that reflected the kind of football Sherman himself was known for during his Hall of Fame career: tough, disciplined, and fundamentally sound.
The Bears’ defense, led by standout performances from players like Roquan Smith and Jalen Johnson, gave the Eagles no room to breathe. Quarterback Jalen Hurts struggled to find rhythm against the pressure, as the Bears’ front seven disrupted his timing, and the secondary locked down his targets. It was a complete performance that left little doubt about Chicago’s capability to compete with the best teams in the league.
On the offensive side, Justin Fields showcased his growth as a quarterback, making the necessary throws while also keeping the defense on its toes with his legs. Fields made key completions and demonstrated poise under pressure, managing the game efficiently and complementing the running attack.
Sherman, known for his critical eye and no-holds-barred analysis, was full of praise for the Bears’ performance, particularly their commitment to fundamental football. In a league that often favors high-flying, flashy offenses, the Bears’ methodical approach to both offense and defense was a refreshing reminder of the power of discipline and teamwork.
“What impressed me most was the way the Bears executed,” Sherman explained. “They didn’t rely on trick plays or flashy highlights. They just outplayed the Eagles, plain and simple. That’s how you win football games. The Eagles didn’t stand a chance when the Bears brought that kind of effort.”
Sherman’s words carry weight, given his long history as a dominant cornerback and a player known for his own brand of “old-school” football. His praise for the Bears serves as both a validation of their current form and a warning to other teams: Chicago is a force to be reckoned with.
With this victory, the Bears are making a statement not just to the league, but to themselves. After years of underperformance, this win serves as a turning point — a moment that could fuel them through the final stretch of the season and into the postseason.
As the Bears look to build on this momentum, Sherman’s words will resonate in their locker room. With a performance like this, they’ve reminded everyone that they can hang with the best in the NFL. The Eagles might have been left stunned, but the Bears are just getting started.
