Jonathan Taylor says he won't request trade as Colts sell off stars

The Colts' star RB insists he wants to stay in Indianapolis despite the team trading away Quenton Nelson and DeForest Buckner.

What to know

  • Jonathan Taylor insisted Thursday he hasn't requested a trade and wants to remain with the Colts, though multiple teams are inquiring about him before the Nov. 10 deadline.
  • The Colts completed a mid-season fire sale, trading Pro Bowl stars Quenton Nelson and DeForest Buckner this week as the franchise shifts toward a rebuild while sitting at 2-5.
  • Taylor rejected the characterization that the team has surrendered, saying players are still trying to win rather than waving a white flag.
  • Taylor's wife posted on social media that her "mind is spiraling" amid the trade uncertainty surrounding the team.

“Similar to Quenton and Buck. They were proud to wear the horseshoe. They were proud to be here. But obviously, circumstances may cause otherwise. Hopefully that day may not come, but I can't control that.”
