The trade rumors surrounding Jonathan Taylor have only intensified since I mentioned McGowan as a stash in last week's column. Taylor even seemed a little emotional on the sidelines in the loss to the Jaguars, perhaps recognizing that it might be his last time in a Colts' uniform. We still have a week before the NFL trade deadline on Nov. 10, but at this point I would be surprised if Taylor isn't on a new team by then. As long as Indy doesn't get a starting-caliber back as part of the return for JT, McGowan would be next man up to start — with DJ Giddens as the new change-of-pace option.

McGowan positioned as next man up if Taylor traded; top-10 RB schedule ahead.

The source notes trade rumors surrounding Jonathan Taylor have intensified, with Taylor appearing emotional on the sidelines in the loss to the Jaguars. With the NFL trade deadline on Nov. 10, the source would be surprised if Taylor isn't on a new team by then. If Indy doesn't acquire a starting-caliber back in return, McGowan would be next man up to start with DJ Giddens as the change-of-pace option. Despite the Colts' poor recent offense, they have one of the 10 best fantasy RB schedules in the second half, making McGowan a sneaky fantasy RB3 down the stretch.
