The Indianapolis Colts and arguably their best player are one step closer toward parting ways. The team has given running back Jonathan Taylor permission to seek a trade, according to a report by NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport.
Taylor, 24, and the Colts have been at odds all offseason. Entering the final year of his rookie contract, the 2020 second-round draft pick is in search of an extension — one the Colts have so far refused to give him. This led to Taylor asking for a trade, but not receiving permission to do so.
Now, it appears the organization has changed its course.
