{"id":2246,"section":"sports","section_label":"Sports","url":"https://www.brokenews.co/sports/2246","headline":"Colts keep Jonathan Taylor past trade deadline","dek":"Indianapolis fielded multiple offers for its star running back but held firm, unwilling to part with him for anything less than a first-round pick.","body":"Jonathan Taylor is staying put. Despite a rebuilding roster and the usual deadline chatter, the Colts turned down multiple offers rather than ship out their star running back.\n\nThe holdup, reportedly, was price. Indianapolis wanted a first-round pick in return, and nobody was willing to pay it. Taylor's team-friendly contract and his standing as one of the league's most productive backs gave the Colts little incentive to settle for less.\n\nFor a team some assumed might be selling pieces for future assets, keeping Taylor signals the front office still values what he brings on the field over whatever a lesser trade package could offer. Teams that inquired will have to look elsewhere for backfield help.\n\nTaylor remains a Colt, and Indianapolis moves forward with its top offensive weapon intact as the rest of the league settles its post-deadline rosters.","published_at":"2026-11-11T00:18:23.830842+00:00","source_count":3,"written_from":[{"outlet":"CBS Sports","publisher":"CBS Sports","title":"Jonathan Taylor stays with Colts: Why Indianapolis demanded a first-round pick","url":"https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/jonathan-taylor-stays-with-colts-nfl-trade-deadline/"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Jonathan Taylor staying with the Colts","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/jonathan-taylor-staying-colts-203756681.html"},{"outlet":"Pro Football Talk","publisher":"NBC Sports","title":"Report: Despite multiple offers, Colts will not trade Jonathan Taylor","url":"https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-despite-multiple-offers-colts-will-not-trade-jonathan-taylor"}],"more_coverage":[{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"“Team Definitely Told Him He’s Getting Traded”: NFL Fans React to Jonathan Taylor’s Emotional Message for Colts Fans After Loss vs. Cowboys","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/team-definitely-told-him-getting-100725373.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"‘I’m very grateful for the city of Indianapolis’: Jonathan Taylor delivers apparent goodbye to Colts","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/m-very-grateful-city-indianapolis-113037608.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Jonathan Taylor shared heartfelt goodbye with Colts fans just in case he gets traded","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/jonathan-taylor-shared-heartfelt-goodbye-130144089.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Jonathan Taylor offers emotional goodbye to Indy after final game before trade deadline","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/jonathan-taylor-offers-emotional-goodbye-191851038.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Jonathan Taylor offers emotional goodbye to Indy after final game before trade deadline","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/jonathan-taylor-offers-emotional-goodbye-191851079.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"NFL insider shares Jonathan Taylor’s ‘three possible outcomes’ ahead of trade deadline","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/nfl-insider-shares-jonathan-taylor-123500976.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Colts’ Daniel Jones, Jonathan Taylor Trade Rumors Sum Up Miserable Season","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/colts-daniel-jones-jonathan-taylor-160014035.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Report: Colts make decision on Jonathan Taylor's future","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/report-colts-decision-jonathan-taylors-201520148.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Report: Despite multiple offers, Colts will not trade Jonathan Taylor","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/report-despite-multiple-offers-colts-201919185.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Why Colts are reportedly keeping Jonathan Taylor despite weeks of trade speculation","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/why-colts-reportedly-keeping-jonathan-202000701.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Why didn't Colts trade Jonathan Taylor?","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/why-didnt-colts-trade-jonathan-210245130.html"}],"image":{"url":"https://sportshub.cbsistatic.com/i/2025/10/30/e62ba24c-4cdb-4f04-8f08-da464c6ca21e/getty-jonathan-taylor-colts.jpg","credit":"CBS Sports","width":1920},"embed":null,"license":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/","attribution":"Analysis data is licensed CC BY 4.0.
