Jonathan Taylor expects Colts trade, NFL insider reports
Indianapolis reportedly may seek compensation equivalent to a first-round draft pick, with the Giants and Vikings linked to the running back.
Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor expects to be moved before the NFL trade deadline, insider James Palmer reported on Amazon Prime Video. Palmer cautioned that a deal would depend on whether another team meets Indianapolis' asking price.
According to the reports, the Colts may seek compensation equivalent to a first-round draft pick. Indianapolis reportedly plans to reassess offers after facing the 3-5 Dallas Cowboys, then pursue deals it considers worthwhile before the 4:00 p.m. ET deadline.
Taylor did not tell reporters whether he wanted to join a team with a winning record. His comments indicated that he expected to face Dallas as a Colts player.
The New York Giants and Minnesota Vikings have been linked to Taylor since October. Fox Sports reporter Ralph Vacchiano described strong interest from the 4-2-1 Giants, citing a source who said first-year head coach John Harbaugh had ambitious plans.
A trade remains uncertain. Indianapolis could retain Taylor, who signed a two-year contract extension over the summer.
