Colts hope Jonathan Taylor's finale is sign of future success

INDIANAPOLIS -- Jonathan Taylor had barely secured the handoff when he saw a 300-pound defensive tackle bearing down. So the Indianapolis Colts running back proceeded to do what he does best: Leave the defender in his wake.

Taylor executed a jump cut to his right, amid all the bodies at the line of scrimmage, and found a running lane. After eluding Houston Texans defensive tackle Kurt Hinish in the backfield, Taylor encountered linebacker Blake Cashman on the second level. Cashman dived at Taylor's legs but came up empty as Taylor high-stepped out of the tackle.
