INDIANAPOLIS -- Colts All-Pro running back Jonathan Taylor will miss the first game of his college or pro career after being ruled out for Thursday night's road contest against the Denver Broncos.
Taylor sustained a badly twisted ankle late in the Colts' 24-17 loss to the Tennessee Titans last Sunday and did not return to the game. He had been undergoing constant rehab since in an effort to make it back for Thursday night, even suggesting on Tuesday that a decision on his availability might come shortly before kickoff.
