Yahoo Sports NFL on Jonathan Taylor

Taylor's carries and production have collapsed; usage decline raises trade speculation.

Taylor's carries have collapsed from 21 and 18 in Weeks 6-7 to 8 and 13 in Weeks 8-9; over the last two games he combined for 21 carries, 69 rushing yards, no touchdowns, and two lost fumbles, averaging 5.8 half-PPR points. Daniel Jones notes the direction of declining usage should concern everyone, and suspects the Colts may be holding him back for a trade. With the team trading All-Pro guard Quenton Nelson and expected to trail frequently, Taylor's pass-catching (nine catches for 42 yards over two games) hasn't rescued him from bad rushing days.
