Who Should I Start? Jonathan Taylor or Javonte Williams

Tuesday, November 10, 10:25 AM

Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor is expected to stay with the team through Tuesday's trade deadline, according to Tom Pelissero. Pelissero reported that multiple teams offered a second-round pick plus additional compensation, but the Colts were seeking a much bigger return. Indianapolis signed Taylor to a two-year extension in August that runs through 2028, then traded left guard Quenton Nelson to Seattle in October. Taylor has averaged 3.3 yards per carry in the two games since that trade, down from 4.2 over his first seven games. He scored eight rushing touchdowns before the trade and has rushed for 69 yards on 21 carries without a score since. Taylor still handled 18 touches in Sunday's loss to Dallas, including a season-high five catches. Seth McGowan had six carries for 45 yards and scored from two yards out. Taylor has nine catches over the past two games, one more than in the previous four combined. That receiving work helps offset his rushing slump in PPR leagues heading into Sunday's Week 10 matchup with Miami.
