Taylor, 27, has 2–3 prime years left; Colts view him as cornerstone of rebuild.

Taylor, 27 years old with 1,691 career NFL carries plus 926 in college, is the Colts' last remaining veteran cornerstone after recent trades of Quenton Nelson and DeForest Buckner. The source notes he has 2–3 prime years remaining at a position where players typically decline after age 30, which aligns with the Colts' rebuilding timeline under a new quarterback, head coach, and general manager. Owner Carlie Irsay-Gordon reportedly views Taylor as a major part of the rebuild, valuing his elite work ethic and preparation as a mentor to young players.
