From the article

Taylor remains under contract through 2028. And even though he recently signed a two-year, $44 million extension that kicks in next season, Indy has already paid a good chunk of that money to the running back. Taylor, 27, is under contract in 2027 for $15 million and in 2028 for $9.46 million, making him even more attractive to any acquiring team.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalValue

Taylor's 2028 contract extension makes him valuable trade target despite first-round asking price.

Trade deadline target with significant contract value through 2028; under contract for $15 million in 2027 and $9.46 million in 2028, plus $15 million signing bonus already paid by Colts. Multiple teams (Packers, Vikings, Giants, Seahawks) interested; Colts may demand first-round pick despite media speculation centering on second-round proposals. Taylor's long-term contract structure and remaining guaranteed money make him attractive to acquiring teams despite high acquisition cost.
