The fallout from Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay's comments about the running back market appear to have deteriorated the team's standing with Jonathan Taylor.
Taylor, who was the NFL's rushing leader in 2021, is eligible for an extension this year after he was the Colts' second-round pick in 2020. He has one year left on his rookie deal before the Colts could franchise tag him after this season and potentially again in 2024.
But after Irsay's comments, it's impossible to know what will happen between Taylor and the Colts. The two sides reportedly talked contract extensions earlier this offseason after Taylor's injury-riddled season. Taylor likely is an important piece to what new head coach Shane Steichen is building in Indianapolis with 2023 first-round pick Anthony Richardson under center. The Colts have a solid offensive line, a good defense and a quality receiver in Michael Pittman Jr. A true three-down running back in Taylor would be crucial for the Colts, especially one that rushed for 3,841 yards and 33 touchdowns in his first three season.Your browser does not support HTML5 audio.
