2025 Fantasy Outlook
A 2024 fifth-round pick, Carlies was limited to 10 regular-season appearances as a rookie due to a lower-leg injury that necessitated a stint on IR, but he returned for the Colts' last three games. Though Carlies mostly played a rotational role Year 1, only playing 50-plus percent of snaps in one game, he enters 2025 staring down a notable opportunity on defense, mostly due to Indianapolis' shallow linebacker depth chart behind Zaire Franklin.

December 6, 2025
The Colts activated Carlies (ankle) off injured reserve Saturday.
ANALYSIS
Carlies was originally listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Jaguars. With his activation off injured reserve, he is clear of any injury designation. This comes after the 24-year-old was a full participant in practice all week. The second-year pro will likely play a rotational role at linebacker while also participating on special teams in his 2025 season debut, assuming he sees the field Sunday.
