What's Happening?
Mo Alie-Cox, tight end for the Indianapolis Colts, had a minimal role in the team's season opener against Miami, recording only one reception for 20 yards. Alie-Cox played 33 of the offense's 73 snaps, positioning him as the No. 2 tight end behind Tyler Warren, who played 53 snaps. Alie-Cox's role is primarily as a blocking tight end, with limited involvement in the passing game, as Warren has taken over as the primary tight end.
Why It's Important?
Alie-Cox's limited role in the passing game reflects the Colts' strategic decisions regarding their tight end usage. This could impact the team's offensive dynamics and effectiveness, particularly in games where tight end contributions are crucial. The decision to prioritize Warren over Alie-Cox may influence future game strategies and player development within the team.
