Shane Steichen explains why Colts RB Jonathan Taylor had no 4th quarter snaps

For much of the game on Sunday, Indianapolis Colts' running back Jonathan Taylor was the lone spark for the offense against the Green Bay Packers.

Taylor finished the game rushing for 103 yards on only 12 carries. That's an average of 8.6 yards per attempt.

However, in the fourth quarter, with the game still in reach, Taylor was on the sidelines. Of the 22 plays that the Colts ran that quarter, Taylor wasn't on the field for any of them.

Ultimately, that decision was made because the Colts were trailing by two scores and found themselves in pass-heavy situations.
