The Colts are holding a fire sale. They've already traded guard Quenton Nelson and defensive tackle DeForest Buckner. Taylor could be next. I worry that the Colts might carefully manage Taylor's workload this week against the Jaguars to minimize the risk of injury and preserve his trade value.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Taylor's workload may be managed due to Colts' fire sale and Jacksonville's tough run defense.

Despite his workhorse role (20 carries per game, at least 15 carries in every contest; only Derrick Henry has more rushing attempts), Taylor faces downside risk in Week 8. The Colts are holding a fire sale (already traded Quenton Nelson and DeForest Buckner), and Taylor could be next. Fitzmaurice worries the Colts might carefully manage his workload against Jacksonville to minimize injury risk and preserve trade value. Jacksonville's defense has allowed the second-fewest fantasy points per game to RBs. Ranked as high-end to midrange RB2.
