Jonathan Taylor (born January 19, 1999) is an American football running back for the National Football League’s Indianapolis Colts (NFL). This article discusses the player’s injury status as well as some background information.
So, what was Jonathan Taylor’s injury?
Injury: Ankle
Injury status: Injured Reserve
UPDATE (DEC. 23): Taylor (ankle) is expected to be placed on injured reserve by the Colts, according to Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com.
UPDATE (DEC. 18): Taylor was diagnosed with a sprained ankle following Sunday’s 39-36 overtime loss to Minnesota, and while the injury isn’t considered serious, it’s unclear whether he’ll be able to play in any of the Colts’ final three games of the season, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN.
UPDATE 3: Taylor rushed for 82 yards on 21 carries and caught three of four targets for 21 yards in a 54-19 loss to Dallas on Sunday.
UPDATE 2: Taylor is currently a member of the COLTS.
Taylor rushed 22 times for 147 yards and a touchdown and caught both of his targets for 16 yards in the Raiders’ 25-20 win on Sunday.
UPDATE: Jonathan Taylor (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game against the Raiders after practicing fully on Thursday and Friday.
Taylor appeared to be moving much better this week in practice, but he could be a game-time decision this week.
Back up runner Jonathan Taylor missed practice today due to an ankle injury.
Taylor has been out with an ankle injury for the past few weeks, missing multiple practices and three games.
Taylor’s participation will be listed on the injury report on Wednesday, the first day of the week, and it’s a good sign that he’ll be able to begin the week without missing practice.
However, we’ve seen Taylor practice for an entire week and still be inactive, and given the team’s direction, the Colts would be wise to be cautious with their star running back.
The Colts offense desperately needs Taylor back in the lineup, but he will continue to miss games until he is healthy enough to return to practice.
