What happened: The Indianapolis Colts turned down an offer featuring a 2027 second-round draft pick and an additional pick for running back Jonathan Taylor, per Tom Pelissero. Indianapolis made clear it requires a premium return to part with the offensive focal point. Multiple teams have reached out to gauge Taylor's availability ahead of the deadline.

Why it matters: Indianapolis sits at 2-5 following three straight defeats, complicating its postseason path despite Taylor's central role. The front office maintains leverage after signing Taylor to an extension and is holding out for an offer featuring a first-round pick and a defensive tackle.

By the numbers: Colts 2026 record: 2-5 (12th in AFC, L3 streak). Last result: 10-16 loss at Minnesota on Oct. 25.

What to watch: The NFL trade window closes Nov. 10 at 4 p.m. ET as Indianapolis weighs incoming interest.
