After a long recovery from a hamstring injury, Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor is eager to get back to practice. Taylor, the 21st overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft, was injured during the Colts’ Week 4 matchup against the Chicago Bears.
The injury was a major setback for Taylor, who had been making an immediate impact on the Colts offense. Through the first four games of the season, Taylor had rushed for 265 yards and two touchdowns. He also had 13 receptions for 99 yards and a touchdown.
Taylor’s absence has been felt in the Colts’ offense. The team has averaged just 3.7 yards per carry since his injury. However, Taylor is now healthy and ready to get back to work.
Taylor is expected to return to practice this week and could be available for the Colts’ Week 8 matchup against the Detroit Lions. If he is able to return, he will provide a much-needed boost to the Colts’ offense.
Taylor’s return could also help the Colts make a push for the playoffs. The team currently sits at 5-2 and is in contention for the AFC South division title. With Taylor in the backfield, the Colts could become even more dangerous on offense.
Taylor’s return will be a welcome sight for Colts fans. His presence will provide a spark to the offense and could help the team make a deep postseason run. It will be exciting to see what he can do when he returns to action.
