Colter will undergo ankle surgery, Tom Kensler of the Denver Post reports.
ANALYSIS
It seems Colter never fully recovered from the ankle injury that limited him early in the season, as he needs to have the ankle operated on. Colter will miss the Senior Bowl as a result, but he'll enter the NFL Draft in hopes of catching on as a receiver.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2013
2012
2011
Colter returns as Northwestern's starting quarterback, but is once again expected to share playing time with Trevor Siemian. Colter thrived in last year's two-QB system as he had 872 yards passing with eight touchdowns and added 894 yards rushing with 12 touchdowns and also had 169 yards receiving. His rushing ability, especially in the red zone, will make him a fantasy factor regardless of how much he plays. However, his upside may be limited in the two-QB system.
Colter was simply spectacular in 2011, throwing for 669 yards and six touchdowns, running for 654 yards (4.8 YPC) and nine touchdowns and catching 43 passes for 458 yards and three scores. As good as he was on the field, Colter was even more valuable in fantasy football, where his ambiguous position resulted in WR eligibility in most leagues. Colter's value could be trending downward entering 2012, though, because he appears set as Northwestern's starting quarterback, which should limit his eligibility. Still, coach Pat Fitzgerald has as good a record as anyone when it comes to coaching up quarterbacks.
He'll compete with Evan Watkins for the No. 2 quarterback behind Dan Persa. He has great rushing ability, but it's not clear if he can throw the ball well enough to be an every down solution if Persa isn't healthy.
