Jonathan Taylor has been given permission to seek a trade, but the Colts are reportedly only giving him until Aug. 29 to find a partner.
. The deadline set by the Colts is also the same day teams must trim their rosters down to 53 players as preparation for the regular season ramps up.
Taylor was granted permission to seek a trade by the Colts on Monday. Since then, six teams have inquired about a trade for the 2022 All-Pro as two of them have made offers, ESPN reported. If the Colts opt to keep Taylor on the roster, they'll have a pair of questions to answer themselves. First, they'll have to determine if they want to activate Taylor from the physically unable to perform list as he's been out of camp due to rehabbing from offseason ankle injury, among other things. If they don't activate Taylor from the PUP list, he'll miss at least the first four weeks of the regular season.
The relationship between Taylor and the Colts appeared to be acrimonious following the trade request, with Colts owner Jim Irsay saying the team had no plans to trade Taylor at all this season as the player's agent took shots at the team on social media. Taylor has been excused from the team twice recently, leaving Colts camp to receive treatment for his ankle and departing again last week to attend to a personal matter.
