While it’s all good and well to hear that Taylor at least has a chance to get back on the practice field this week, it remains to be determined whether or not those reps will translate to Taylor getting back onto the game field in Week 8. Considering the fact that Taylor hasn’t been practicing in any capacity, this is definitely a step in the right direction. Taylor has been out of the lineup for the past three weeks, which has opened the door for backups Trey Sermon and Tyler Goodson to each have their shot at being the lead back in his absence. While both players have flashed serviceable production while competing for touches, the backfield has largely left a lot to be desired (especially in comparison to the RB1 numbers Taylor was providing before going down). Without Taylor, the onus has been placed on Anthony Richardson and the Colts’ passing offense, which – as you’re about to find out later in this newsletter – has completely bottomed out without Flacco at the helm. The scoring ceiling remains relatively low in Indianapolis, but a return from Jonathan Taylor for their Week 8 matchup with the Texans would go a long way in helping to up the Colts’ offensive production. Fantasy managers should be intrigued by this report, but by no means should we be counting on having Taylor this weekend this early in the week.
