Colts’ RB Jonathan Taylor will not practice today due to an ankle injury.

Taylor injured his ankle again in Week 8 and it looks like he'll be a question mark heading into Week 9. If Taylor can't go, Jackson could be in store for a big workload, now that Nyheim Hines is out of the picture. Lindsay and Wilkins could also factor in but Jackson played well last time Taylor was out.

The Bills landed Nyheim Hines from the Indianapolis Colts for Zack Moss and a draft pick.

Moss has 17 carries for 91 yards in 2022 but wasn't getting a lot of time as of late behind Devin Singletary and James Cook. Moss will likely remain behind Taylor and Jackson in the RB pecking order in Indy at this point.

And another! Colts are trading Nyheim Hines to the Buffalo Bills, sources tell ESPN.

The Bills are adding one of the top pass catching backs to their offense. Hines signed a three-year deal last season so the Bills will have him under control for two more years. It's potentially bad news for Cook owners hoping to see an increase in touches after the Bills bye week. Singletary averaged 10 carries a game and three receptions a game, but Hines will surely cut into that production. Hines was averaging about 3.5 catches a game for the Colts. In Indy, Jackson should move up to the RB2 slot behind Taylor.

Everything I’m hearing right now about the status of things with Colts RB Nyheim Hines indicates odds are good he will be traded by tomorrow’s deadline.

Holder went to say say in this tweet the Colts haven’t got the offer they want just yet, but there’s a strong feeling they just might. This is a situation to watch. Hines' pass catching and change of pace ability could serve a team well down the stretch, while the Colts would likely elevate Jackson into the RB2 role after he stood out as the team's main back when Taylor was out. Lindsay could also move up to the team's RB3 spot.

Regarding Jonathan Taylor, everything points to him playing right now. Not yet official, but has practiced all week.

A full week of practice almost always correlates to a full workload in the subsequent game. Taylor is a top-ten option, even in a tough matchup with the Titans' run defense.

Deon Jackson out-touched Phillip Lindsay 17-to-14 and ran twice as many routes in W5. Jackson out-snapped Lindsay 58% to 38%. Jackson wasn't particularly productive in college but he has a nice athletic profile per Player Profiler. Jackson wasn't particularly productive in college but he has a nice athletic profile per Player Profiler. Consider Jackson a volume-driven low-end RB2 while Lindsay is a low-end RB3.

Colts running back Jonathan Taylor has returned to practice today, a good sign for his chances to play Sunday vs. the Jaguars.

It is unlikely that the team would be bringing Taylor back in anything other than a full-time workhorse role. He is safe to plug back in lineups, assuming he is a full-go on Friday.

Former Broncos running back Phillip Lindsay will be active for tonight's game in Denver, presumably operating in a backup role.

There's no reason to assume that Hines wouldn't be the first person in the rotation, but Lindsay will be sure to get a fair share of touches. This doesn't make him viable in typical redraft leagues, but could be a play for TNF Showdown slates.

Colts ruled out Jonathan Taylor for Thursday night’s game in Denver.

In the end, the turnaround was just too quick. The hope is the extra time off will allow Taylor to play in Week 6, which is an early home game against the Jags. Hines could benefit the most with Taylor out of the lineup. Newly-signed Lindsay could also see some work if he's activated, possibly ahead of Jackson.

If Jonathan Taylor is not able to play, Indianapolis would likely increase the role for Nyheim Hines, who has 17 catches this season but just eight carries for 11 yards as a runner.

The Colts might also turn to veteran running back Phillip Lindsay, who has spent the first four weeks on the practice squad.

“If JT’s not up, Phillip will work into the equation,” Reich said.

Lindsay would be returning home.

There was no mention in the story of Jackson, who would seem like a better choice to get work along with Hines, but the Colts look like they will lean toward the veteran Lindsay for some carries. Jackson is more of a dynasty stash at this point. Lindsay has bounced around the league as of late, and the injury to Taylor isn't expected to keep him out long if he does have to miss time.
