Colts may retain Jonathan Taylor despite trade offers ahead of deadline
Summary

Colts running back Jonathan Taylor is likely to remain with the team despite trade interest as the NFL trade deadline approaches on November 10. Analyst Tom Pelissero suggested that the Colts declined an offer for a future second-round pick, indicating they aim for a more significant return. The team's management transition, with potential changes in personnel, encourages a wait-and-see approach for trades. Pelissero also highlighted that trading too many players now could hinder the Colts' season given the remaining nine games.
