Taylor's 85% two-minute snap share and 55 targets signal sustained workhorse role.

Jonathan TaylorRBIND

Taylor logged 82% of snaps (2nd in NFL) in 2025, but the significant story is his career-best 55 targets and massive jump in passing-down usage. His 85% two-minute snap share was the highest rate of his career and ranked 7th in football, a dramatic increase from 59% in 2024 and 56% in 2023. His long-down-and-distance snap rate jumped to 76% (10th) in 2025 from 53% (28th) in 2024. The Colts kept their best player on the field consistently, giving Taylor a higher floor/ceiling combination. With 323 carries, nearly 1,600 rushing yards, 20 total touchdowns, and 55 receptions, Taylor dominated. Given the lack of reliable depth chart options behind him (DJ Giddens, Seth McGowan, Ulysses Bentley IV), Taylor should remain a workhorse in 2026, especially if he receives a contract extension.
