Goodson beat out Evan Hull for the RB3 gig during training camp and even saw some work as a passing downs specialist early in the year. With Trey Sermon struggling to replace Jonathan Taylor when the latter missed time with an ankle injury, Goodson made a spot-start in Week 7, running 14 times for 51 yards and a touchdown. Despite outplaying Sermon sans Taylor, the Colts stuck with Sermon as the backup in the second half of the season. Goodson touched the ball in three games over the final 10 weeks. On the plus side, Goodson carved out a high-volume role on special teams, giving him a shot at making the roster next season. He finished the year with 32 carries for 153 yards and a touchdown, adding 11 receptions for 61 yards and another score.
