Seth McGowanIND

Seth McGowan is competing with DJ Giddens to back up Jonathan Taylor for the Colts as a 2026 seventh-round pick. McGowan (6-0, 223) is heavier than Giddens (6-0, 212) but only marginally slower, logging a 4.49-second 40 compared to Giddens' 4.43. In terms of size-adjusted athleticism, either Giddens and McGowan are roughly equal or McGowan is slightly better. Both are relatively unproven as passing-down options and both struggled somewhat in blitz pickup in college. McGowan started over and outplayed 2026 fourth-round pick Mike Washington when the two played at New Mexico State. At ADP RB132, McGowan is positioned as a potential handcuff, though the Colts are a prime candidate to acquire a veteran by trade.
