The brief
This comes despite intense trade rumors and multiple offers leading up to the trade deadline. NBC Sports reported that the Colts have made their final decision to keep the star running back.
Earlier in the week, trade speculation had reached an explosive point. Jordan Schultz reported on The Pivot Podcast that five to six teams had been aggressively pursuing Taylor, listing the New York Giants, Green Bay Packers, Denver Broncos, Seattle Seahawks, Cincinnati Bengals, and Minnesota Vikings. Schultz added that Taylor would be open to a fresh start and estimated that a trade would require at least a second-round draft pick plus additional compensation.
Cincy Jungle reported that the Cincinnati Bengals were showing heavy trade interest as they looked for more firepower to contend for a Super Bowl following a narrow win over the Tennessee Titans. Other outlets, including the New York Post and Yahoo Sports, had closely tracked potential landing spots and active talks involving contenders like the Giants and Packers.
Despite the active discussions and widespread sweepstakes involving multiple NFC and AFC teams, NFL Network's Tom Pelissero noted that Taylor was "most likely" staying put. Ultimately, Bleacher Report and NBC Sports confirmed that the Colts decided against moving their All-Pro running back as the deadline passed.
