Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor addressed trade speculation ahead of Sunday's game, acknowledging the possibility that it could be his final appearance for the franchise. The 25-year-old star, who signed a three-year, $42 million contract extension in 2023, has been the subject of trade rumors amid the team's struggles this season.
Taylor spoke to reporters on Friday, stating he remains focused on the upcoming matchup while acknowledging the business nature of the NFL. The Colts enter Sunday's game with a 4-5 record, and Taylor has rushed for 683 yards and five touchdowns through nine games this season.
General manager Chris Ballard has not publicly committed to keeping Taylor beyond the current campaign, fueling speculation about the running back's future in Indianapolis. The former second-round pick has earned three Pro Bowl selections since entering the league in 2020.
