Will Mallory

One under-the-radar player quietly putting together a strong Colts camp is fourth-year tight end Will Mallory. The former Miami standout has consistently made plays, showcasing his 4.5 speed and 37-inch vertical while catching everything thrown his way. That production carried into Thursday's preseason game versus the New England Patriots, when Mallory hauled in six catches for 80 yards. He could emerge as a sneaky contributor in the Colts' passing game and a candidate for a much bigger role in 2026.
