Colts May Reconsider Giants' Offer for Running Back Jonathan Taylor
Indianapolis could entertain a trade package of second- and fifth-round picks for Jonathan Taylor if the New York Giants revive the proposal, according to NFL insider Jordan Schultz.
Indianapolis is reportedly willing to "strongly consider" the New York Giants' offer of second- and fifth-round draft picks for running back Jonathan Taylor, NFL insider Jordan Schultz said. The Colts had previously rejected the proposal but may change course if the offer is renewed.
Taylor has not filed a formal trade request, but after the team's recent loss he expressed uncertainty about his future. Schultz added that the player appears open to a trade and might welcome a new start.
The Colts, who recently signed Taylor to a two-year, $44 million extension through the 2028 season, have not indicated an intention to force a move. Schultz noted that the team could revisit a trade in the offseason, though the market for running backs may limit the value they can obtain.
If the Giants return with their original package, the Colts might accept it, especially if no competing offers emerge. The trade discussion remains contingent on the Giants' willingness to re-engage.
