Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor is the hottest name on the trade market, especially after Tuesday's major moves. The Colts traded eight-time Pro-Bowl offensive lineman Quenton Nelson to the Seattle Seahawks, and three-time Pro-Bowl pass rusher DeForest Buckner to the San Francisco 49ers — signaling the clear beginning of a rebuild era following their 2-5 start to the 2026 season. While Taylor could very well be moved before this year's trade deadline, he's seemingly content with his home in Indianapolis.
When speaking to reporters on Wednesday, Colts head coach Shane Steichen said Taylor has not requested a trade away from the organization that selected him with a second-round pick in the 2020 draft. "Steichen said Jonathan Taylor has not asked to be traded," Colts insider Mike Chappell reports. Taylor signed a two-year, $44 million contract extension with the Colts this past offseason, keeping him under contract through 2028.
Through the first seven games of the 2026 season, he's recorded 587 rushing yards and a league-leading eight rushing touchdowns. The Colts will face off against the Jacksonville Jaguars in a Week 8 matchup this coming Sunday.
