The Colts. They've already sold off both Quentin Nelson and DeForest Buckner, and they're probably not done...The team limited him to just 63% of the snaps and 38% of the carries in last week's blowout loss, and he could get a similar treatment in Week 9...I would consider benching Taylor if I had viable replacements. He could definitely still do some damage when on the field vs. the Cowboys, but I think his floor is a lot lower than most people realize.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalRole

Taylor's floor lower than expected with Colts selling; limited to 63% snaps, 38% carries in blowout loss.

Taylor's value is diminished by the Colts' apparent fire sale; the team has already traded Quentin Nelson and DeForest Buckner and is likely to continue moving pieces before the trade deadline. Taylor is one of their biggest assets and has been rumored to teams like the Seahawks, Vikings, and Giants. With the Colts seemingly set to cash in, the team limited Taylor to just 63% of the snaps and 38% of the carries in last week's blowout loss, and he could get a similar treatment in Week 9 vs. the Cowboys. The source would consider benching Taylor if viable replacements are available, as his floor is a lot lower than most people realize.
