The Giants have withdrawn their offer for Colts running back Jonathan Taylor, ending a bid that included a second- and fifth-round draft pick. With Tuesday’s trade deadline approaching, Indianapolis must decide whether to lower its asking price or keep Taylor, while other reported suitors remain in the mix.

By the Numbers
  • New York’s offer: a second-round pick and a fifth-round pick.
  • Through 8 games, Taylor has rushed for 610 yards and 8 touchdowns, averaging 4.1 yards per carry.
  • Taylor also has 21 catches for 202 yards.
Yes, But

The Giants’ offer is off the table unless Indianapolis lowers its asking price. The Vikings, Bengals and Broncos have also been linked to Taylor, but it’s unclear whether any will meet the Colts’ reported demand for a package comparable to the one San Francisco paid for Christian McCaffrey.

State of Play
  • The trade deadline is Tuesday, leaving the Colts little time to find a deal.
  • Taylor could remain in Indianapolis if no team meets the asking price.
  • Sunday’s game against the Cowboys could be Taylor’s last with the Colts.
Bottom Line

New York’s withdrawal weakens the clearest reported offer, putting pressure on Indianapolis to choose between lowering its price and keeping a productive running back.
