The Indianapolis Colts are “more likely than not” to trade star running back Jonathan Taylor, according to an update from NFL insider Jordan Schultz.
The New York Giants are known to be one of the teams that have inquired about Taylor. Per Schultz, the Minnesota Vikings also include the Denver Broncos, Cincinnati Bengals, and Green Bay Packers.
Taylor traveled with the Colts this weekend as they were on the road to face the Jacksonville Jaguars. If the Colts are serious about trading the 27-year-old, playing him is a calculated risk.

The Giants like their backfield of Cam Skattebo, Tryone Tracy (on IR with a hamstring injury), Devin Singletary and Gregory Desrosiers. However, it’s been clear since the offseason, that Harbaugh would love to have a top-tier bellcow back.
The Giants are interested in Super Bowl MVP Kenneth Walker in free agency, and No. Jeremiah Love is the 3rd overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft.
It’s the Colts with the Carolina Panthers 2022 trade of Christian McCaffrey to the San Francisco 49ers as a model. In that trade, the Panthers received 2023 second-, third-, and fourth-round picks, and a 2024w fifth-round selection.
