But the franchise will want significant trade compensation for Jonathan. Colts are looking for a 1^st-round selection or a few selections that equates 1.

While no deal has materialized today, organizations are weighing the fair value in a potential trade for the Indianapolis running back – the 2021 league’s rushing champ. The Interested franchises will need to determine whether they want to ink Taylor to the deal extension he wants.

The RB requested a trade the day he reported to camp, at the end of July.

Jonathan has a combined 3,841 rushing yards since starting to play in the NFL 3 seasons ago in 2020. His NFL-high 1,811 rushing yards in 2021 set an Indianapolis organization record, as did his 18 TDs during the same campaign.
