Jonathan Taylor set to return for the Colts, providing a boost to their rushing attack.

Why it matters: With Taylor back in the lineup, the Colts aim to establish a potent rushing game that they struggled with in his absence.

  • The Colts averaged only 89.6 rushing yards per game in Weeks 5 and 6 without Taylor.
  • Quarterback Anthony Richardson's return last week helped improve the run game, but having Taylor back adds another dimension to their offense.

By the numbers: Taylor has been impressive this season, averaging 87.3 yards per game with four touchdowns and 11 explosive runs in just four games played.

Yes, but: The Colts' success on the ground will also depend on the performance of their offensive line and overall offensive scheme.

What to watch: Keep an eye on how Taylor's return impacts the Colts' offensive strategy and the effectiveness of their rushing attack against the Texans.

What's next: The Colts hope to capitalize on Taylor's return and continue building momentum in their upcoming AFC matchup against the Houston Texans.

  • Taylor expressed his excitement about returning to the field, emphasizing the importance of being out there instead of in the training room.

The bottom line: Jonathan Taylor's return is a significant development for the Colts as they seek to establish a strong rushing game and maintain their offensive momentum.
