Reich: RB Phillip Lindsay 'will work into equation' if Jonathan Taylor (ankle) out

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.

Fantasy Impact: 

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.
