Anthony Gould: Everything you need to know

Gould (foot) is one of a few players returning punts during the Colts' OTAs, Kevin Bowen of 107.5 The Fan reports. Gould appeared in 11 games in his second season last year, accumulating 647 kick return yards and 57 punt return yards before his campaign was cut short by a foot injury. Indianapolis traded starting receiver Michael Pittman to Pittsburgh back in March and didn't make any major acquisitions at wideout during the offseason, so now that he's healthy again, Gould is positioned well to make the final 53-man roster for 2026.

Gould recorded two receptions for six receiving yards across 11 regular-season games with the Colts in 2025. He also recorded 647 yards on kick returns and 127 yards on punt returns. Gould missed six games over the course of the season, losing Week 9 and Week 10 to a knee injury before ultimately succumbing to a foot issue that forced him to miss the last four games of the regular season. The second-year receiver logged similar usage to his rookie year, with Week 7 against the Chargers marking a career high in offensive snaps with 38. Heading into year three, it remains to be seen if Gould can maintain his role as a kick and punt returner.

The Colts placed Gould (foot) on injured reserve Saturday. Gould will miss at least Indianapolis' next four games due to a foot injury he sustained Week 14, and which has kept him out of practice since. As such, his only chance of getting back on the field this season will rely on the Colts making a deep playoff run, and it's looking very unlikely that the team even gets in. Across 11 regular-season appearances in 2025, Gould has secured both of his targets for six yards while compiling 647 yards as a kick returner and 131 yards returning punts.
