Colts Make Clear Announcement on Jonathan Taylor Amid Rumors

Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor has not requested a trade, head coach Shane Steichen said Wednesday, even as the team begins a clear rebuilding process following a 2-5 start. Steichen addressed the situation during a news conference one day after the Colts dealt guard Quenton Nelson and defensive tackle DeForest Buckner. Those moves, combined with the firing of general manager Chris Ballard last week, have shifted the organization’s focus toward accumulating draft capital ahead of the Nov. 10 trade deadline. Steichen Confirms Taylor Has Not Sought Exit “Those are hypothetical things right now,” Steichen said.
