Quiet before potential trade
Taylor rushed 13 times for 46 yards and brought in all five targets for 18 yards in the Colts' 27-23 loss to the Cowboys on Sunday. He also lost a fumble.
Taylor suited up for what might have been his final game in a Colts uniform with Tuesday's trade deadline looming, and the star running back had a positively ordinary day. Taylor couldn't fully exploit a vulnerable Cowboys defense, and the fumble they forced from him early in the fourth quarter at Dallas' 20-yard line cost Indianapolis what seemed like a sure scoring opportunity. Taylor has seen reduced usage in the last two games as rumors have swirled about a potential trade, and it remains to be seen if he'll still be helming the ground attack during the Week 10 home matchup against the Dolphins next Sunday.
