Indianapolis Colts tight end Coby Fleener suffered a concussion for the second time in as many seasons agains tthe Buffalo Bills in the team’s preseason opener, but he will be returning to the line up for Sunday’s match up against the New York Giants.

Colts head coach Chuck Pagano said that Fleener will be returning to the practice field and he’ll have the greenlight for the game.

From Kevin Bowen of Colts.com:

It could be a bit concerning to many that Fleener has already racked up two concussions in his NFL career, but when you consider how quickly he was cleared by the doctors, it should not be a cause for concern.

Fleener is going to be a big part of the team’s offense in 2013 with their two-tight end sets.

If you are a fantasy league player, Fleener is certainly a player that you will want to keep your eye on.
