Matt TaylorGUEST
So, you know, I don't know if it's gonna be Marvin Harrison Jr. or somebody else.
Matt TaylorGUEST
Quez Watkins was signed this week to the practice squad.
Matt TaylorGUEST
We'll see if he's in the mix, but they're just desperate for somebody that they can trust on the outside to generate some more bi- some, some bigger plays for them to help the offensive efficiency because you guys know it's, it's hard to go on long drives and, and score every time.
Brian BatkoHOST
Yeah.
Jake ArthurHOST
Like that's got to be at the forefront, which there's some good and some bad with that because you want a guy to be super cognizant of the fact that he just keeps turning the ball over, but you don't want it to neuter him, basically.
Jake ArthurHOST
You still want him to take chances, especially if they're able to get some sort of field stretcher out there, whether Darius Slayton is finally able to play, whether they broaden Deon Burke's role or, uh, you know, Quez Watkins is, is able to play.
Jake ArthurHOST
W- like they, they need somebody out there this week that can stretch the field and obviously if you're gonna take chances downfield, you got guys like Jalen Ramsey back there, you can, you can turn the ball over.
Jake ArthurHOST
Um, and shoot, they, they, they did it short, they did it deep last year.
Scott ReimanHOST
Finally, Shane Steichen had a few things of note to say.
Scott ReimanHOST
He addressed the new additions to the practice squad in wide receiver Quez Watkins and defensive end Carl Lawson.
Scott ReimanHOST
Steichen has a history in Philly with Watkins, and he's a guy who can give you some speed, which is why he was brought in.
Scott ReimanHOST
Steichen acknowledged that they do have guys with speed like Deion Burks, and I'd only expect to see Watkins up this week if Slayton, Allen, and Doolin are all out, but he does give you another potential deep threat.
5 MINS LATER
Scott ReimanHOST
But even if he has the time, who's going to be the deep target? Deion Burks had one chance last week, but the ball was overthrown.
Scott ReimanHOST
Laquan Treadwell had the 48-yard catch in Week 2.
Scott ReimanHOST
Darius Slayton? Quez Watkins? How about Tyler Warren? His yards per catch have almost been cut in half this year, going from 10.8 his rookie season to a mere 5.7 this year.
Scott ReimanHOST
Or how about Downs? He had a 59-yarder his rookie year and a 69-yarder in year two.
Kevin BowenGUEST
He's yet to play.
Kevin BowenGUEST
They signed Quez Watkins, the former Eagles wide-out, who hasn't played in the NFL in several years.
Kevin BowenGUEST
So, yeah, they are doing anything and everything they can to try and inject some passing game life.
Kevin BowenGUEST
They have a rookie, Deion Burks, who's got some juice, seventh-round pick out of Oklahoma.
Kevin BowenHOST
With Latu, I think you're betting on a higher floor, and you just haven't gotten that.
Kevin BowenHOST
Um, Colts did sign Quez Watkins, you know, speedy wide out.
Kevin BowenHOST
They, they, they just need to find speed.
Kevin BowenHOST
I know we'll have Twitter questions on it.
Kevin BowenHOST
Just I- isolate the turnovers for a second.
Kevin BowenHOST
They just don't have enough "I strike fear in you because of this" in their passing offense.
Kevin BowenHOST
So whether it's Deon Burks, whether it's Darius Slayton finally dressing, whether it's Quez Watkins who hasn't played in the NFL in three years, you know, something, um, has got to be a little bit more dynamic.
Kevin BowenHOST
Keenan Allen, for what it's worth, was back practicing, um, on Wednesday after having that groin injury last Thursday before they went to London.
Scott ReimanHOST
Okay, one more note before we get to your comments.
Scott ReimanHOST
The Colts made a transaction yesterday, signing wide receiver Quez Watkins to the practice squad and releasing cornerback Elijah Culp in the process.
Scott ReimanHOST
Now, you would imagine that Watkins, who hasn't played a snap in the NFL since 2023, as he's been on various practice squads the past two seasons, is only a depth add in the injuries-- uh, with the injuries that the Colts have suffered at wide receiver.
Scott ReimanHOST
But if both Doolin and Keenan Allen are out this week, he may be thrust right into action depending on the readiness of Darius Slayton.
Scott ReimanHOST
Because behind Josh Downs and LaQuon Treadwell, you're looking at Deon Burks, Anthony Gould, Slayton, and now Nick Westbrook-Ikhine, Eli Pankake, and Quez Watkins on the practice squad.
Scott ReimanHOST
So if you assume Downs, Treadwell, Burks, and Gould in the absence of Doolin and Allen, then that leaves two spots for Slayton, Westbrook-Ikhine, Pankake, and Watkins.
Scott ReimanHOST
My guess it would be Slayton and Westbrook-Ikhine, but if Slayton still isn't ready, then it's anyone's guess.
James BoydGUEST
15 yards per catch in his career, but again, has not seen the field.
James BoydGUEST
They did sign Quez Watkins to their practice squad, um, earlier today, but again, he hasn't caught a pass in an NFL game since 2023.
James BoydGUEST
So they're kinda grasping at straws here.
James BoydGUEST
I know Tyler Warren has been, you know, lauded as being such a, a good tight end and someone who can help them, you know, make some plays in the passing game.
Reuben FrankHOST
But –
Dave ZangaroHOST
Shane Steichen just signed him some Quez Watkins on their practice squad.
Reuben FrankHOST
Did he really? Mm-hmm.
Reuben FrankHOST
Anyway, Sean Mannion was supposed to be all new and different than anything Nick had ever run.
Zachary SmithHOST
But I think that he was wearing 16 in the pre-season camp.
Zachary SmithHOST
Uh, Quez Watkins, same story there.
Alan SaundersHOST
Yeah.
Alan SaundersHOST
Yeah, not, not a great number.
Zander KrauseGUEST
Not really.
Zander KrauseGUEST
They had Quez Watkins, then they had Dotson, now they got Lemon.
Zander KrauseGUEST
Yeah, you're right.
Dan SileoHOST
