By Week 10, Jonathan Taylor had five weeks where he scored more than one touchdown. The Colts' offense was a juggernaut, and Taylor had nothing better to do on Sundays than plow through defenders. But everything changed after Daniel Jones got hurt.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Taylor's upside tied to Jones' health; elite efficiency metrics in healthy weeks support 1.07 value.

Jonathan Taylor's fantasy value hinges on Daniel Jones' health; when Jones was healthy (Weeks 1-10), Taylor posted a 71.3% rushing rate, 52.9% success rate, and 5.08 adjusted yards after contact per attempt, scoring more than one touchdown in five of those weeks. After Jones' injury (Weeks 11-17), Taylor's rushing rate jumped to 87.6% but success rate collapsed to 41.7% and yards after contact fell to 2.49, demonstrating that offensive efficiency—not just volume—drives RB scoring. The source notes positive reports from Colts training camp suggest Jones is healthy heading into 2026, positioning Taylor's control over the backfield in an efficient offense as the right mix of talent and situation at the 1.07.
