According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, running back Jonathan Taylor of the Indianapolis Colts is not listed on the injury report for this week’s game against the Atlanta Falcons, suggesting that he will play in his first game since November.
Taylor missed the last three games due to thumb surgery that he had in late November. The 24-year-old has only played in seven games this year, totaling 414 yards and four touchdowns. He also missed the opening four weeks of the season due to an ankle ailment.
Indianapolis is one of three teams in the AFC South with an 8–6 record on the season, which ties them for first place. Without Taylor, the Colts went 2-1, with Zack Moss and Trey Sermon filling in for him at running back. The team’s victory over the Steelers on Saturday was particularly noteworthy.
To close off the season, the Colts play host to the Houston Texans and Las Vegas Raiders after travelling to Atlanta on Sunday.
