Who Should I Start? Jonathan Taylor or Jaylen Warren

Sunday, September 10, 8:29 AM

Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor (ankle) is healthy enough to pass a physical to return from the PUP list today, per NFL.com's Ian Rapoport. However, due to the terms of the PUP list, Taylor can't be activated until after Week 4, giving the Colts four weeks to evaluate their options. Rapoport notes that trading Taylor remains a very real outcome, and he added that the Dolphins represent a possible landing spot. He also writes that there is "a chance slim, but possible" that Taylor returns to play for Indianapolis. The entire situation is worth monitoring as the 2023 season gets underway on Sunday. For the time being, the Colts will operate with a backfield featuring Deon Jackson, Evan Hull, and Zack Moss (arm).

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren is expected to "get a bigger role" against the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 3, per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. The 24-year-old has arguably looked better than Najee Harris so far this season, especially in the passing attack. It's worth noting that Rapoport reported Warren and Harris would split the workload back in Week 1, and while Warren finished that game with just 18 yards, he and Harris both had eight touches. Heading into Sunday Night Football versus Vegas, Warren ranks as a fantasy RB3.
