Giants pull trade offer for Colts running back Jonathan Taylor

Jay Glazer reports the Giants' second- and fifth-round pick offer is off the table unless Indianapolis lowers its asking price.

The Giants are stepping back from the Jonathan Taylor sweepstakes. FOX NFL insider Jay Glazer said New York has withdrawn the trade package it had offered the Colts for the star running back ahead of Tuesday's deadline.

According to Glazer, the Giants had put a second-round pick and a fifth-round pick on the table for Taylor a couple weeks ago. That offer is now off, and Glazer said it would take the Colts lowering their price for a deal to come back together. He also said the Giants may not be as interested as they once seemed.

New York had been viewed as one of the front-runners for Taylor throughout the buildup to the deadline, making this withdrawal a notable shift in the market. It remains unclear whether another team will step in with a competing offer, or whether the Colts will adjust their expectations with the deadline closing in.

For now, Taylor stays in Indianapolis, with his future beyond Tuesday still unresolved.
