Colts RB Jonathan Taylor (thumb) and WR Michael Pittman Jr. (concussion) are practicing for the second straight day. Pittman is not in a red jersey, meaning again that he’s been cleared for full contact in practice.

Good sign that Pittman will be hitting the field this weekend, which makes him a WR2/3 play in Week 16. This also raises the floor for managers looking towards Gardner Minshew as a QB streamer.

Colts RB Jonathan Taylor and WR Michael Pittman, Jr. were both officially full participants in practice today.

Good sign that Pittman will be hitting the field this weekend, which makes him a WR2/3 play in Week 16. This also raises the floor for managers looking towards Gardner Minshew as a QB streamer.

Colts RB Jonathan Taylor returns to practice at full speed for the first time since thumb surgery. Whether he plays on Sunday will be determined by how he holds up.

"You've definitely got to see it full speed at practice for sure," Taylor said today.

With Zack Moss potentially looking at a multi-week absence, we have to assume Taylor will be getting a huge workload ahead of Sermon and Goodson, which makes him an RB1 option against the Falcons if he suits up.

The Colts did not practice today, but on their estimated report:

- RB Jonathan Taylor was a full participant
- WR Michael Pittman, Jr. was a limited participant
- RB Zack Moss was a non-participant

Still early in the week to project exact usage for the Colts skill position players with so much still up in the air, but we'll keep an eye on it. If Pittman does go, he is in a decent spot against the Falcons, and would boost Gardner Minshew into streaming consideration.

Colts coach Shane Steichen told reporters that RB Jonathan Taylor is progressing well and will participate in the walk-through today (as he's done the last few weeks).

There remains optimism that Taylor will go this week, but he'll be evaluated on a daily basis.

The Colts backfield is an abject mess for fantasy purposes right now, with Moss also pushing to play after injuring his shoulder last week. As of right now, we should be trying to avoid all of the pieces until we get some form of confirmation on Taylor/Moss, or what the workload may look like for Sermon/Goodson.

Colts running back Zack Moss exited Saturday’s game against the Steelers with a shoulder injury, but he’s optimistic about playing on Sunday against the Falcons.

Moss’s X-rays were negative and he plans to try to play on Sunday, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. With Moss and Taylor hurt, Sermon and Goodson filled in more than capably. Even if Moss can't go this week, the team could have Taylor back, so that's a situation to monitor as well as the week goes on.

Once again, Colts coach Shane Steichen rules out star RB Jonathan Taylor (thumb). That's three games missed. He's entering the window where a return would be possible if all goes well.

This was expected, but it sounds like we may see Taylor again this season, though it may not be in time for our fantasy teams. Moss will continue to get a heavy workload that puts him in the RB1 conversation.

Colts coach Shane Steichen confirmed to Indy reporters that the plan is for Jonathan Taylor to play again this season.

Taylor's missed the last two weeks with a thumb injury and his status remains to be determined for Saturday against Pittsburgh, although reports say a Week 16 return is more likely.

Colts’ RB Jonathan Taylor has been ruled out for Sunday’s game at Cincinnati.

After Zack Moss handled 100% of the team's backfield carries last week, we should bank on him getting the full-workload nod once again. Consider him a locked-in RB1 ahead of a great matchup.

Colts RB Jonathan Taylor is having thumb surgery and will miss a few weeks, meaning Zack Moss is RB1 once again.

Moss will return into his huge early-season load, and should be considered a must-start in all formats until Taylor returns.
