In the midst of minicamp, Colts QB Andrew Luck is impressed by the “smooth” Donte Moncrief and believes the newest Colts receiver will “do big things.”

Physically, at 6-2 and 221 pounds, Moncrief also fits the mold the Colts were looking for at receiver.

“Donte is a big target. We needed to get bigger, too. We needed to get taller.” wide receivers coach Charlie Williams says.

“He runs good routes and he catches the ball, that’s the key. That’s the key.”

Fantasy Impact:

Moncrief probably won't have much of an opportunity as a rookie if Reggie Wayne (ACL) is fully healthy, but the Colts are preparing for life after Wayne.

“I will be playing on Sunday. Very excited, can’t pass up playing the Packers. I will be out there for sure.”

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
