Colts running back Jonathan Taylor has been ruled out for Sunday’s game against the Patriots with a lingering ankle injury, coach Frank Reich said Friday.
Taylor was not able to participate at practice earlier in the week and was not seen during the portion of the workout open to reporters on Friday.
Taylor has been nursing a sprained ankle for much of the 2022 season, but returned to play in Indy’s last two games against Tennessee and Washington after missing the club’s contests in Week 5 and Week 6. Most recently, he rushed 16 times for 76 yards and one lost fumble in the Colts’ 17–16 loss to the Commanders.
