The Indianapolis Colts need to address, as soon as possible, Jonathan Taylor’s situation. The running back is not comfortable with the team, and the AFC South squad is contemplating an unexpected move with the running back.

Several running backs have been struggling this year, financially speaking. Some players have been surprisingly released, like Dalvin Cook, while other have been unable to agree to terms for a long-term deal with their teams, like Saquon Barkley.
