On Taylor’s last run against the pats, he hit 22.13 mph

(vs. CARDINALS, 12/25)


Taylor may have had one of his most impressive games of the season, considering the fact that he had almost no offensive line to work with.

It was mildly reminiscent of O.J. Simpson's excellent 1972 season, when he was running behind a below-average offensive line ....... in the off-season, GM Bob Lustig shored up that offensive line significantly, and they immediately vaulted into being one of the top blocking fronts in the NFL. "The Electric Company" helped pave the way for Simpson's historic 1973 season. To this day, he is the only player ever to rush for more than 2,000 yards in only 14 games. Eric Dickerson passed the milestone in the 15th game of the 1984 season, and every other running back that has done it since did so in the 16th game of the season.

(vs. RAIDERS, 1/02)


For the first time this season, the Colts lost a game in which Taylor rushed for 100-or-more yards ...... they were previously 9-0 in such games.

NFL Rank 2022: Predicting the Top 100 Players, with Stats, Notes and Quotes for the League's Best

***************************


18)l Jonathan Taylor

RB | Colts

Age: 23

2021 Rank: Unranked


Taylor led the NFL in carries in 2021, but the Colts are looking to reduce his workload this season. Still, his speed and home-run ability is what separates him from most backs. He'll remain a threat to score every time he touches the ball, even with fewer attempts. --- Stephen Holder

Signature Stat: ) In 2021, Taylor became the youngest player in NFL history to have a season with at least 2,000 scrimmage yards and 20 scrimmage touchdowns. Taylor accrued 2,171 yards from scrimmage and 20 touchdowns during his age-22 season.

What They're Saying: ) "J.T. has just taken it to the next level. He's learning from everybody. He's seeing others do certain things, seeing receivers do certain things, and he's learning. That's one thing about J.T: He's gonna ask questions and he's gonna learn. And I think that's why he's gonna have another big year and will take an even bigger jump." --- Colts RB Nyheim Hines

2022 Projection: ) 1,493 rushing yards, 13 TDs (351 yards, 2 TDs receiving)
