The Colts (1-2-1) can exhale a small sigh of relief after seeing running back Jonathan Taylor’s X-rays.<\/p>\n

ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported that the elite running back’s X-rays and MRI produced clean test results upon evaluation after suffering an injury in Sunday’s 24-17 loss to the Tennessee Titans (2-2). Taylor limped off the field, but still managed 20 carries. The usual workload yielded atypical results of just 42 yards and an inopportune fumble that the Titans recovered.<\/p>\n

He carries questionable status heading into a short-rested Week 5 matchup with the Denver Broncos (2-2).\u00a0 The Broncos face the Colts without their own highly capable running back. Javonte Williams tore his ACL and LCL in a season-ending injury against the Raiders yesterday.<\/p>\n

\n

No complete tear but still will have to deal with mild eversion\/high ankle sprain with a tight turn around.https:\/\/t.co\/KVbZ1bXtmR<\/a><\/p>\n

\u2014 \u00a0Former head team physician for the San Diego Chargers (1997-2013) and orthopedic sports injuries specialist David J. Chao speaking on Jonathan Taylor’s injury – ProFootballDoc (@ProFootballDoc) October 3, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Pass-catching specialist Nyheim Hines skyrockets in\u00a0NFL betting<\/a> on player props if head coach Frank Reich elects to go the safest route. Undrafted free agent Deon Jackson hangs on the edge of the 53-man roster. Former fixture of the Broncos’ offense Phillip Lindsay is available for promotion on the practice squad if the Colts want a familiar, hardened face for the matchup if Taylor can’t go.<\/p>\n

The sooner the Colts’ workhorse can return to full game-breaking speed, the better. He captured the rushing title last year at 1811 yards, breaking the single-season franchise record set in 2000 by Hall of Famer Edgerrin James. Taylor led the league in touchdowns as well. Next Gen Stats clocked a top speed of over 22 mph. The blazing time was the fastest any NFL player reached in 2021.<\/p>\n

Now the Colts wish for an equally speedy recovery uninhibited by Thursday Night Football’s infamous setbacks if Taylor plays.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
