Latest

Seth McGowan’s current injury designation is shown in the live status box above, which updates automatically from the official NFL injury report. The Colts drafted him in the seventh round (No. 237 overall) in 2026, and he has no injury designations this season in the reports we checked.

McGowan was listed second at running back, ahead of DJ Giddens, on the Colts’ unofficial Week 3 depth chart, per Colts.com. In Week 2 he played four snaps (6%) to Jonathan Taylor’s 61, per Roundtable’s snap counts. He started two preseason games while Giddens recovered from a hamstring injury, per CBS Sports.

Fantasy Action: McGowan has no standalone value behind a workhorse like Taylor; treat him as a deep-league handcuff only.
