Jonathan Taylor (ankle) and DeForest Buckner (ankle) both practiced FULL on Thursday.

Colts who haven’t practiced this week:

-Jaylon Carlies
-Genard Avery

Related Players: Trey Sermon, Tyler Goodson

If Taylor is indeed 100% heading into Houston, he should be back on RB1 radars.

Shane Steichen said he’s optimistic that DeForest Buckner and Jonathan Taylor could practice this week.

Taylor has been out since Week 4 and it would be a good sign if he can get back on the practice field leading up to a big game against the Texans. Goodson led the team in RB carries over Sermon 14-8, although Sermon was a bit more productive and also added a catch for 13 yards. Taylor's return would be a welcome addition to the offense and we'll hopefully know more as the week goes on. The Texans-Colts game is an early Sunday game so owners will have time to adjust lineups.

Per Colts HC Shane Steichen, CB Chris Lammons, RB Jonathan Taylor are OUT Sunday vs. Dolphins.

QB Anthony Richardson, "will be ready to roll, yeah."

We can safely ignore the Colts backfield, but if you're truly desperate, Goodson can be plugged into Flexes, as the option who is getting some pass-game work.

Shane Steichen ruling just one #Colts player OUT for Sunday:

-Jonathan Taylor (ankle)

Michael Pittman Jr. (back) is feeling really good, per Steichen.

Anthony Richardson will be a game-time decision.

It hadn't been looking good for Taylor throughout the week, so maybe the bigger news is that we don't have any confirmation about Richardson's status, which has a huge impact on lineup decisions.

There are a lot of moving parts here, but we're assuming Pittman won't play and that Richardson *will*, which gives a slight boost to Josh Downs and Alec Pierce, who should be considered WR3s with upside for more.

No sight of Jonathan Taylor to start Colts practice.

Unless he comes out late, that’s a second straight missed week of practices for him.

What seemed to be a minor injury now looks like it will keep Taylor out for a second straight week. While Sermon easily held the RB1 role last week, he wasn't terribly impactful on the ground, doing most of his work as a receiver out of the backfield. He had his own injury scare earlier in the week, but looks good to go for Week 6. Consider him a fringe RB2/3 with Anthony Richardson (presumably) back at the helm.

The Chiefs place WR Rashee Rice on IR as he awaits more info; Giants WR Malik Nabers faces an uphill battle this week; Colts RB Jonathan Taylor (high-ankle) likely misses time.

Rapoport continues that "it's mild, though he is likely to miss some time," and it would "be a surprise" if we see him suit up in Week 5. Bad news ahead of a great matchup against this Jaguars team that seems to be circling the drain already. Fire Sermon up as a fringe RB2/3 if Taylor is forced to sit.

I asked Colts RB Jonathan Taylor if he’ll practice today (didn’t answer but later said “no”) and what will tell him he’s ready (or not) for Sunday:

“What’s today? Thursday, Friday, Saturday — so we got 48, really 72, but really 48 hours, so continuing to take it day by day. …”

In a follow up question Taylor mentioned that this ankle injury "isn't as bad as 2022", but that just means he doesn't expect to hit IR. Tomorrow's injury report will tell us a lot, but it's not trending in the right direction. Consider Sermon a fringe RB2/3 if JT ends up sitting out Week 5.

Colts RB Jonathan Taylor is not practicing today due to his ankle injury.

It's still early in the week, so there's no need to panic, but make sure you have Sermon on your roster where he's available. Sermon would very likely work as the RB1, but a rotation or simply a lighter workload is probably in the cards. Consider him an RB3 for fantasy purposes if Taylor is sidelined in Week 5.

Steichen said Colts are not considering short-term IR for Jonathan Taylor.

Taylor suffered what is said to be a "minor" high ankle sprain in Week 4. There is no word on Taylor's status going forward but given it's still a high ankle sprain, his Week 5 availability is at least in question. Sermon should be picked up if not already owned as a Taylor owner. He'll likely be a hot commodity on this week's waiver wire.

Colts star RB Jonathan Taylor was diagnosed with a high-ankle sprain, sources say, thought it’s believed to be a pretty mild version. Indy will get a full report tomorrow, but in the words of one source, “He’s ok.”

There was nothing more in the post regarding a timetable but owners will want to monitor this situation, and we'll likely know more in the coming days. It's at least good news Taylor was said to be "ok" but it doesn't necessarily mean he'll be ready to go in Week 5. With Anthony Richardson dealing with a hip injury, the Colts running game really took a hit in Week 4. Sermon is a must-add off the wire, especially if you're a Taylor owner. The Colts are at the Jags in an early game in Week 5 so owners will have time to adjust lineups.
