The running back had already missed the Colts’ first four games of the year due to an ankle injury, but has played in the last seven contests. He has scored four touchdowns in the last three games and averaged six yards per carry, scoring twice against the Bucs in Week 12.
Taylor’s absence is a big loss for the Colts, who are without quarterback Anthony Richardson for the rest of the season as he suffered a right shoulder injury. Zack Moss will replace Taylor, as he did in the first four games of the year. This season, Moss has 672 rushing yards and seven touchdowns, leading the Colts’ running corps.
