According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pff.com\/\" data-t-l=\":b|z|k|\u2691u\" class=\"gnt_ar_b_a\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">PFF<\/a>, 70.5% of Alie-Cox&#8217;s snaps came as a blocker. Out of 46 eligible tight ends in 2025, Alie-Cox ranked 19th in run-blocking grade.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">The tight end position is led by Tyler Warren, but the Shane Steichen offense uses its fair share of two-tight-end sets. Warren brings a well-rounded skill set to the position, and those abilities can be maximized when paired with a stout blocking presence, like Alie-Cox.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">Along with re-signing Alie-Cox, the Colts also <a href=\"http:\/\/coltswire.usatoday.com\/story\/sports\/nfl\/colts\/2026\/03\/13\/nfl-free-agency-colts-re-sign-free-agent-te-drew-ogletree\/89142660007\/\" data-t-l=\":b|e|k|\u2691u\" class=\"gnt_ar_b_a\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">re-signed Drew Ogletree<\/a> on Friday.<\/p>\n<p>Colts updated tight end depth chartTyler WarrenMo Alie-CoxDrew OgletreeWill MallorySean McKeon<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">(This article will be updated.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Updated March 14, 2026, 7:36 p.m. ET The Indianapolis Colts are reportedly re-signing free agent tight end Mo&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":813483,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2059],"tags":[95878,2005,7,2004,392,2381,6,49915,95900,95882,95903,105661,95897,95883,95881],"class_list":{"0":"post-813482","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-indianapolis-colts","8":"tag-accessfree","9":"tag-colts","10":"tag-football","11":"tag-indianapolis","12":"tag-indianapolis-colts","13":"tag-indianapoliscolts","14":"tag-nfl","15":"tag-sstssportsnflcolts","16":"tag-sstsncolts","17":"tag-tagamerican-football","18":"tag-tagindianapolis-colts","19":"tag-tagmo-alie-cox","20":"tag-tagoverall-negative","21":"tag-tagsports-news","22":"tag-typestory"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/116232440300246885","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/813482","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=813482"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/813482\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/813483"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=813482"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=813482"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=813482"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
