Jonathan Taylor

Last year, Taylor was abysmal over the start of the season, but became a league winner over the fantasy playoffs. This year, it seems the script was flipped, as he started on a fantasy record-setting pace, but four straight weeks of being the RB19 or worse. Especially with Daniel Jones out for the season, fantasy managers will need to rely on Philip Rivers to move the ball. Thankfully, he did an admirable job against the Seahawks last week, giving Taylor 28 touches. With the 49ers next on the schedule, the Colts should find a way to move the ball against their depleted defense. Unfortunately, he plays the Jaguars in championship week, but we'll cross that bridge when we get there.

Jonathan Taylor ran for 87 yards on 25 carries in the Colts 18-16 loss against the Seahawks. He also caught 3-of-4 targets for 14 yards receiving.

Fantasy Impact

Taylor saw a heavy dose of carries, but he couldn't break any of them off for long runs. He should continue to see heavy usage down the stretch of the season.
