Indianapolis Colts coach Shane Steichen said Jonathan Taylor will keep his regular role with the team. The running back drew trade interest from other clubs after the organization began focusing on the future. Steichen noted Taylor remains on the roster and is ready to play.
Recent Performance and Next Matchup
Taylor logged 38 snaps during the Colts' 42-7 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. Steichen stated the plan for Taylor shows no change ahead of the Week 9 game versus the Dallas Cowboys. The Colts hold a 2-6 record.
Team Moves and Other Requests
The club fired general manager Chris Ballard last month and traded Quenton Nelson along with DeForest Buckner last week. Receiver Josh Downs also asked for a trade yet played in the loss to Jacksonville and is set to face Dallas.
No Plans to Sit Players
Steichen referenced the Arizona Cardinals sitting Marvin Harrison Jr. once a trade was set with the Houston Texans. He added that no similar discussions have occurred with the Colts front office and stressed the need to stay professional.
