ProFootballRumors.com • • sports
Key Points:
- The Indianapolis Colts are preparing to trade All-Pro running back Jonathan Taylor, with multiple teams including the Giants, Vikings, Packers, Bengals, Chiefs, Broncos, and Seahawks showing interest, and a second-round pick likely being the minimum return.
- Taylor, 27, is under a two-year, $44 million contract extension with a partially guaranteed 2027 salary, making him an attractive option for teams looking beyond the 2026 season.
- The Colts are also looking to trade other key players, including corners Sauce Gardner and Charvarius Ward, though Gardner's large contract and injury history complicate a potential trade.
- Denver Broncos are monitoring the Taylor trade market but may hesitate to meet the asking price due to their current roster depth and recent aggressive trades for high draft picks.
- The Colts' motivation to trade stems from a broader roster overhaul led by Carlie Irsay-Gordon, with the team aiming to rebuild by moving high-value veterans and accumulating draft capital.
