Colts working back Jonathan Taylor might see himself in a new uniform come this yr’s commerce deadline — and a few groups are already exhibiting curiosity.
Multiple organizations all through the NFL said they would be open to buying and selling for Taylor, ESPN reported Thursday, but it’s unsure that the Colts, who are 2-4 this season, would be definitive sellers.

He admitted, however, that he has not given a potential commerce “any thought,” including that he’s targeted on the Colts’ recreation against the Vikings on Sunday.
“I haven’t given any thought,” Taylor informed reporters about his future. “That’d be loopy proper now, particularly because we’ve got a nice Minnesota Vikings group that we have to go against.
“I think it would be a discredit and a disservice to my teammates and this whole organization to think about what could, what should, what may be.”
Taylor, whom the Colts drafted in the second spherical of the 2020 NFL Draft, has established himself as one of the league’s premier working backs in Indianapolis, incomes three Pro Bowl journeys alongside with being named All-Pro in 2021.
He signed a two-year, $44 million contract before this season began.

The particular groups probably in Taylor have been named as the Nov. 10 commerce deadline nears.
The hypothesis surrounding Taylor comes after the Colts fired normal supervisor Chris Ballard on Monday after their embarrassing 26-20 loss to the beforehand winless Titans.
Ballard, who took over as GM in 2017, did not expertise much success after the retirement of franchise QB Andrew Luck in 2019. In the years since, Indianapolis has reached the postseason just once and has completed only two seasons with a profitable document.
“I am grateful to Chris for his years of service to the Colts and for everything he poured into this organization. He cared deeply about our team and our community, and we wish Chris and his family all the best,” Colts co-owner Carlie Irsay-Gordon said in a assertion.
“As I said at the begin of the season, the sense of urgency has never been greater. Our normal is to compete for championships, and I believe a change in management is obligatory to meet that normal. Making this change during the season was a deliberate choice. Waiting would only delay the necessary work that wants to start now.
“We will conduct a thorough search for our next general manager and take the time necessary to identify the right leader for the future of this organization.”
