From the video
I'm sure you saw the handshake he and Jonathan Taylor shared on the sideline at the end of that Colts game. I mean, at this point, Joel, wouldn't it be shocking if Jonathan Taylor's not traded in the next 13 days? So, how sure are we that Seth McGawan would inherit, I don't know, a 60% workload when and if Jonathan Taylor gets traded? I think 60% I would be pretty confident in... Seth McGawan having the best chance of being the starter for the rest of the season or at some point being the starter this season... he could be up there in terms of 12, 13, 14 touches here in the near future.
STACKED’s take
Colts RB with 60% workload upside if Taylor traded; 12–14 touches projected.
Seth McGawan is positioned to inherit significant workload if Jonathan Taylor is traded before the deadline (13 days remaining). Bam Knight expresses confidence that McGawan would secure approximately 60% of the workload post-trade, noting that Anthony Giddens has not been involved in the Colts offense and McGawan was pulled alongside Taylor in recent games. The sideline handshake between McGawan and Taylor at the end of the Colts game fuels speculation about Taylor's imminent departure. McGawan has the best chance of becoming the Colts' starter for the rest of the season or at some point this season, with projections for 12–14 touches in the near future; Bam Knight ranked him #3 waiver pickup.
