What happened: The Giants withdrew an offer of a 2027 second-round pick and a 2028 fifth-round pick for Colts running back Jonathan Taylor. Head coach John Harbaugh did not deny it Sunday night, saying, "Things change from day-to-day." The Colts fell to 2-7 with a 27-23 loss to Dallas, their fifth straight defeat.
Why it matters: The Giants are 5-2-1 and hold the No. 3 seed after ending a 13-game losing streak in Philadelphia. Their backs ran 31 times for 80 yards in that game, and Devin Singletary had 31 yards on 21 carries with Cam Skattebo out with a hamstring injury. Taylor is signed through 2028.
By the numbers: Taylor's base salary this season is $6.98 million. The Giants averaged 2.6 yards per carry against the Eagles; Singletary averaged 1.5.
What to watch: The trade deadline is Tuesday at 4 p.m. ET. Pro Football Talk reports the Colts are expected to take the best offer available for Taylor by then.
