Bengals pursue trade for Colts' Taylor; consider Jets' Hall as backup

The Cincinnati Bengals have made an aggressive offer to the Indianapolis Colts for running back Jonathan Taylor, aligning with five other teams potentially interested in him. NFL insider Adam Schefter indicated the Bengals might pivot to New York Jets' running back Breece Hall if Taylor is traded elsewhere. Although the Jets are reportedly not looking to trade Hall, teams are expected to explore this possibility given Hall's return from injury and the emergence of teammate Braelon Allen. The Bengals are in need of a running back, as their current options have underperformed in recent weeks.
