Jonathan Taylor totals 121 yards, 2 TDs vs. Ravens

Jonathan Taylor

IND Running Back #28

Player Stats

Jonathan Taylor rushed 19 times for 98 yards and two touchdowns in the Colts’ Week 1 loss to the Ravens, adding three receptions for 23 additional yards.

Taylor felt like the lone bright spot on Sunday for a Colts offense that struggled for much of the game. Taylor struggled at times on the ground, with nine of his 19 carries going for three or fewer yards, but he also broke free for five carries of 10-plus yards, with his longest run coming on a 21-yard burst in the third quarter. Taylor got the scoring started for the Colts in the first quarter when he plunged into the end zone for a one-yard score to give them the early lead, and found the end zone again in the second quarter on a three-yard score. Taylor was the only Colts running back to see a rush attempt in this one, and he saw four of the five running back targets. He’ll be firmly on the RB1 radar in next week’s game against the Chiefs.

Jonathan Taylor

IND Running Back #28

Jonathan Taylor rushed 15 times for 45 yards in the Colts’ Week 5 loss to the Steelers.

Taylor added 37 receiving yards on three catches. As JJ Watt noted on the broadcast, the Steelers knew that the Colts love running off tackle, so they sent extra rushers and had their defensive ends bracket the tackles to force the Colts to run up the gut. It didn’t work out well for the Colts. Taylor had no running room all day and was stuffed inside the three-yard line three separate times. Things will likely be better next week against the Titans, but the Colts are going to need to fix their issues in the interior of their offensive line.
Jonathan Taylor

IND Running Back #28

Jonathan Taylor rushed 20 times for 95 yards and two touchdowns in the Colts’ Week 4 win over the Commanders.

Playing in London, Taylor needed just 78 yards to overtake Travis Etienne as the league’s all-time leading rusher in international games. Taylor didn’t disappoint with his third multi-score effort of the season. Marcus Mariota left the game early and the Colts pulled away in the second half, allowing them to lean on the ground game. With the passing game struggling throughout the first month of football, expect the Colts to continue to build their offense around Taylor. He remains near the top of the RB1 ranks for his Week 5 matchup with the Steelers.
Jonathan Taylor

IND Running Back #28

Jonathan Taylor rushed 23 times for 68 yards in the Colts’ Week 3 win over the Texans, adding two catches for four yards on three targets.

The Texans focused first and foremost on stuffing Taylor, and outside of a stretch in the middle of the second half when Azeez Al-Shaair was pulled off the field for injury, they mostly did just that. Taylor did have a 24-yard scamper pulled off the scoresheet by a holding call. He’ll be back in the RB1 ranks next week against the Commanders.
Jonathan Taylor

IND Running Back #28

Jonathan Taylor rushed 24 times for 92 yards and two touchdowns in the Colts’ Week 2 loss to the Chiefs, adding 40 yards on four receptions.

Taylor’s one-cut rushing ability was on full display against the Chiefs while gashing Kansas City’s defense on outside zone runs. Both of his touchdown scampers came on such carries, the second of which knotted the game at 27 to eventually force overtime. Unfortunately for Taylor and the Colts, the two carries that mattered the most were stuffed for a combined negative-three yards following a 48-yard Laquon Treadwell reception in overtime, eventually forcing the Colts to kick a game-tying field goal. Patrick Mahomes would send Indianapolis to an 0-2 record on the following possession. Taylor gets a difficult matchup against one of the top defenses in the league in Week 3, but he will remain a locked-in RB1 against the Texans.
Jonathan Taylor

IND Running Back #28

Colts signed Jonathan Taylor to a two-year, $44 million contract extension.

Taylor and GM Chris Ballard both talked about their desire to get a deal done earlier in training camp, and it didn’t take long for the two sides to reach an agreement. The deal includes $39 million guaranteed and has another $3 million for Taylor to earn via incentives. He was set to be a free agent next offseason but is now signed through the 2028 season. Taylor slowed down once Daniel Jones got injured last year. Even with the quiet finish, his season-long numbers look incredible. He ran for 1,585 yards and 18 touchdowns while setting career-highs in receptions (46) and receiving yards (378). Taylor is rightfully the fourth running back to be taken in most fantasy drafts this summer.
Jonathan Taylor

IND Running Back #28

Colts RB Jonathan Taylor said he’s had “some good conversations” with the Colts about a new deal and he has “faith” in them coming through with one.

Taylor, who had been a rumored hold-in, has actually participated in camp — though he did take a rest day on Friday — and Colts owner Carlie Irsay-Gordon said she would love it if Taylor “would be a Colt for life.” It seems like there’s positive momentum on an extension here, though it isn’t done just yet. Taylor is currently going off draft boards as RB4 and a top-10 pick.
Jonathan Taylor

IND Running Back #28

Colts GM Chris Ballard said he’d “love to have” Jonathan Taylor and Quenton Nelson “long-term,” then added “we’ll see.”

Indianapolis Star’s Joel A. Erickson puts it this way: “the Colts also find themselves at a crossroads. Ballard is headed into the final year of his contract; if Indianapolis does not win, the Colts could be headed for organizational change. A superstar running back might not fit in a rebuild.” It will be very interesting to see if Taylor holds in without a new contract. Ballard spent a lot of his press conference saying his own contract status — he’s a lame duck GM — won’t affect his ability to make long-term decisions. In his own words: We’ll see.
Jonathan Taylor

IND Running Back #28

The Athletic’s James Boyd believes Jonathan Taylor could be a training camp hold in.

To be clear, the headline of this article said Taylor “could — and should — hold in” and the article itself mostly focuses on why he should and would have a lot of leverage if he attempted to. There’s not exactly a pull quote here from Taylor that suggests he’s leaning one way or the other. But Boyd has been on the beat in Indianapolis for a bit and we believe there’s a real chance this happens. Taylor didn’t technically hold in during an acrimonious contract dispute ahead of the 2023 season so much as he dealt with a right ankle injury that suddenly healed after he got a contract before Week 5. Boyd believes Taylor “despite being three years older, has more leverage now than he did in 2023.” The Colts certainly don’t have a real backup plan for him at running back based on how last season and this offseason went.
Jonathan Taylor

IND Running Back #28

Colts RBs coach DeAndre Smith said the team “definitely need to find ways to take some of that workload off” Jonathan Taylor.

“If I can find another guy or two that can take some of those carries off, he’s just going to be that much better,” Smith continued. We’re not that concerned about this from a fantasy perspective because the Colts haven’t exactly invested in finding that player. “Obviously, he’s a hell of a player,” Colts coach Shane Steichen said. “It’s hard to take him off the field when he’s running so good.” Taylor should remain in the RB1 conversation this year, though it’s going to be harder to believe in him posting his early-season numbers if Daniel Jones’ Achilles injury limits him.
Jonathan Taylor

IND Running Back #28

Jonathan Taylor said he would “definitely love to be a Colt for life,” as he enters the final year of his contract.

Taylor, 27, has totaled more than 320 offensive touches in each of the last two seasons. His current $14 million annual salary makes him the seventh-highest-paid running back in the league. Taylor has set multiple Colts records, operating as the centerpiece of Indianapolis’ offense for years. FOX 59’s Mike Chappell writes that it is “uncertain whether there’s a mutual desire to keep Taylor in Indy beyond 2025.” Multiple Colts stars, including DTs DeForest Buckner and Grover Stewart, OG Quenton Nelson and WR Josh Downs, are also entering the final year of their deal. Chappell believes owner Carlie Irsay-Gordon “might believe it’s more prudent to allow the upcoming season to run its course rather than reinvest in lucrative contracts.” Time will tell.

Titans CEO Burke Nihill said the organization fully believes in coach Robert Saleh and general manager Mike Borgonzi.

The Titans are 0-5 and have won only three games since Borgonzi joined the team prior to the 2025 season. Despite this, Nihill told ESPN’s Turron Davenport that he feels a “sense of stability” in the organization. Davenport, in turn, notes that the Titans “have fired a coach or general manager every year since 2022.” Nihill apologized to Titans fans, saying ownership and team executives feel “a sense of grief” about the endless losses, and “feel the sense of responsibility to deliver” for fans moving forward. We wish them luck.

Caleb Williams (hamstring) posted a video to social media indicating he will play in Week 6 against the Falcons.

Normally, social media posts don’t count for much. However, earlier today, Bears coach Ben Johnson said that the Bears should have more clarity on Williams’ status by the end of the day, after the medical team put Williams through “the final stress tests” in his return-to-play program. We are inferring that Williams’ social media post suggests he passed the final medical testing, though we have not officially received word that this is indeed the case. For now, we tentatively expect Williams to play on Sunday. He can be treated as a mid-to-low QB1.

ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reports that the NFL “could step back in and create a longer suspension” for Josh Jacobs if the video showing his altercation with a woman is released.

Fowler is surprisingly saying the quiet part out loud here, though this has been the general consensus for fans and analysts for a while. Jacobs is scheduled to come off the NFL’s Commissioner Exempt list on Monday. The NFL is reportedly trying to get hold of the video, and Jacobs has sued to block its release. Fowler adds that the woman’s attorney said her client has not participated in the league’s investigation due to privacy concerns. If the video stays under wraps, Jacobs could be allowed to continue playing in the NFL.

ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reports that the Eagles will decide whether to place Jalen Hurts (blood clot) on short-term injured reserve on Saturday.

Fowler reportedly spoke to “some people who are hopeful” that Hurts can avoid injured reserve. He described the situation as being “very much touch and go” and said Tanner McKee will “probably” start multiple games. The Eagles go on bye in Week 10, so if Hurts does land on injured reserve, the Eagles’ Week 11 game against the Steelers would be his earliest possible return.

Kirk’s inability to practice fully despite his lengthy injured reserve stint suggests he might need another week or two to get ready for an NFL game. Still, the 49ers don’t face the Commanders until Monday night. If active, he could end up warranting FLEX treatment with Mike Evans (ribs/Achilles) ailing.
