Even on IR, Colts RB Marlon Mack Continues to Mentor Jonathan Taylor and Team’s Young Backfield

According to The Athletic’s Zak Keefer, Indianapolis Colts running back Marlon Mack continues to mentor rookie rusher Jonathan Taylor and the team’s young backfield despite recovering from a season-ending torn Achilles:

This is interesting: Despite suffering his season-ending torn Achilles, Colts running back Marlon Mack has stayed in Indianapolis to help his teammates this season. He's in the RB meetings every week and essentially has become another asst. coach for rookie Jonathan Taylor.

Entering a contract season, Mack, who rushed for over 1,000 yards for the Colts last season, and was expected to form a hard-hitting ‘1-2 punch’ with Taylor, suffered the devastating injury in the team’s opener against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
