• Colts' Jonathan Taylor: Finishes 2024 in style

  01/06/2025 • By RotoWire

  Taylor carried the ball 34 times for 177 yards and a touchdown and caught one of two targets for three yards in Sunday's 26-23 overtime win over the Jaguars. It was another huge performance for the 25-year-old RB, who topped 100 yards in each of the last four games of the season, tying the longest such streak in his career. Taylor wrapped up 2024 with 1,431 yards and 11 TDs on the ground with a 4.7 YPC over 14 games, his best campaign since 2021. He has two years and $24 million left on his current contract with $7.2 million guaranteed for 2025, and as long as he can stay healthy he figures to remain the focal point of the Colts' offense next year while the team continues its efforts to develop QB Anthony Richardson (back).

• Colts' Jonathan Taylor: Big performance in loss

  12/30/2024 • By RotoWire

  Taylor carried the ball 32 times for 125 yards and two touchdowns and caught two of four targets for 11 yards in Sunday's 45-33 loss to the Giants. The star running back is having a massive finish to the season. Taylor topped 100 rushing yards for the third straight game, a stretch in which he's racked up 450 yards and five TDs on the ground while averaging 5.4 yards per carry. The Colts were eliminated from playoff contention with the loss, so the team may elect to sit veterans like Taylor in Week 18. If he does take the field though, he'll have a very favorable matchup at home against the Jaguars.

• Colts' Jonathan Taylor: RBs to Start

  12/19/2024 • By Jamey Eisenberg

  Taylor owes us a touchdown in Week 16. In Week 15 at Denver, Taylor broke free for what should have been a 41-yard touchdown in the third quarter, but he dropped the ball before crossing the goal line. He finished the game with 22 carries for 107 yards and one catch for 4 yards, but his 10.1 PPR points look bad compared to what could have been. He now has consecutive games with at least 100 total yards, and the Titans have allowed six running backs in their past five games to score at least 11 PPR points, with six total touchdowns over that span.

• Colts' Jonathan Taylor: Midseason lull continues

  11/24/2024 • By RotoWire

  Taylor rushed 11 times for 35 yards and was not targeted as a receiver in Sunday's 24-6 loss to the Lions. Taylor was inefficient with his carries for the second consecutive game and has now averaged under four yards per carry in three of his last four contests. Quarterback Anthony Richardson pitched a dud Sunday, resulting in a poor game script for Indianapolis' star running back. Taylor remains the workhorse in the Colts' backfield, but the offense needs to show more balance against the Patriots next Sunday in order to unleash their top talent on the roster.

• Colts' Jonathan Taylor: Over 100 total yards in loss

  11/10/2024 • By RotoWire

  Taylor rushed 21 times for 114 yards and secured two of four targets for eight yards in the Colts' 30-20 loss to the Bills on Sunday. Taylor was the only Colts running back to log a carry and helped his final total significantly with a 58-yard run in the latter portion of the first quarter. Taylor exceeded 100 yards on the ground for the second time in the last three games and fourth time overall on the season, and he now has multiple receptions in three of the past four contests as well. Taylor should remain very busy in a Week 11 road matchup against an inconsistent Jets run defense.
