Colts coach Jim Caldwell said only that Clark is "being evaluated" on Wednesday. The severity of the injury is unknown and the secretive Colts rarely let much injury information leak out. Still, Clark owners would be smart to grab a worthwhile TE2 in the meantime. They should already have one rostered by now, anyway, with Indianapolis on a Week 7 bye.

Clark is seeing a specialist on Thursday, and Polian expects to receive word by late afternoon. "I don't know what the prognosis is," said Polian. "This is not the kind of injury that is very common where our doctors can say 'Hey, look, this is a four-week injury or this is a six-week injury.' So we'll know more later tonight." Clark shouldn't be dropped in fantasy leagues just yet, but his season is hanging in the balance based on Thursday's doctor visit.
