Colts Could Receive This Return in Blockbuster Jonathan Taylor Trade
An NFL insider discussed the asking price the Indianapolis Colts would likely seek for running back Jonathan Taylor.
The Indianapolis Colts are reportedly considering moving star running back Jonathan Taylor before their Nov. 10 deadline, following a 2-4 start and the recent firing of their general manager. ESPN's Stephen Holder and NFL Network's Ian Rapoport both suggested multiple teams could be interested in Taylor if the Colts were to put him on the market.
The Colts would likely want a first-round draft pick from any potential suitor, as they sent one to the New York Jets last year for safety Jerome Simpson. Rapoport stated that if the Colts have a strong market for players during the season, they may be able to secure a valuable return. Potential suitors for Taylor include the Seattle Seahawks and Minnesota Vikings, both of whom have connections to the former Colts GMs who worked with them in Seattle.
While the Colts are not necessarily planning to trade Taylor, who has 492 rushing yards and seven touchdowns this season, the trade chatter has already begun if the team fails to bounce back from recent losses.
