Jonathan Taylor continues his strong stretch with monster run against Texans
Colts running back Jonathan Taylor is continuing to show why he should be getting the majority of the carries.
While Indianapolis was up 17-3 about halfway through the 3rd quarter, Taylor took a handoff from the 12-yard line and and scampered 83 yards before he was brought down.
It included a nasty stiff arm which really got him going.
83 YARDS

Taylor has been electric the last 3 weeks for the Colts as this is the 3rd straight game that he’s had 100+ total yards. Last Monday against the Baltimore Ravens, Taylor finished with 116 yards receiving and 53 yards rushing with 2 combined touchdowns.
On Oct. 3 against Miami, he had 103 yards rushing, plus 11 yards receiving. Taylor currently has 145 yards rushing with 2 touchdowns against the Texans and there’s still half a quarter left to be played.
Indianapolis is on pace to get to 2-4 on the season after its collapse on Monday against Baltimore. Taylor will be the main reason for that.
