If Tyler Warren is out, who gets his targets?
The Indianapolis Colts room absorbs +1.07 receptions, and Mo Alie-Cox takes the largest single share at +0.72. The work stays overwhelmingly inside the tight end room.
Where the work goes
Change in projected receptions for every other player in the offense. The bars are small on purpose — a vacated role is shared out, and any tool showing one replacement absorbing a whole target load is telling you something the data does not support.
Every player in the room
| Player | Catches now | If he sits | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tyler Warren TE · 92% snaps | 4.80 | — | OUT |
| Keenan Allen WR · 64% snaps | 4.10 | 4.17 | +0.07 |
| Josh Downs WR · 80% snaps | 4.00 | 4.07 | +0.07 |
| Jonathan Taylor RB · 89% snaps | 3.10 | 3.10 | +0.00 |
| Alec Pierce WR · 42% snaps | 2.30 | 2.37 | +0.07 |
| Laquon Treadwell WR · 63% snaps | 1.50 | 1.57 | +0.07 |
| Mo Alie-Cox TE · 34% snaps | 0.70 | 1.42 | +0.72 |
| Seth McGowan RB · 11% snaps | 0.70 | 0.70 | +0.00 |
| Deion Burks WR · 10% snaps | 0.60 | 0.67 | +0.07 |
What the data says happens
Measured across every regular-season game from 2018 onward, each beneficiary compared against his own trailing four-game form and net of what the same players do in weeks the room’s number one actually plays.
| Room | Receptions gained | n | t |
|---|---|---|---|
| Receivers | +0.107 | 2,160 | 2.29 |
| Tight ends | +0.492 | 1,024 | 9.57 |
| Backs | -0.045 | 1,259 | -0.92 |
The room total is predictable. Which player takes it is not. Every candidate predictor of who gains — pecking order, snap share, route depth, trailing targets — correlates at roughly r = 0.02. In any single week one player usually takes about 60% of what was vacated; it is simply not predictably the same one.
