Looks like no JT trade today - Taylor will remain on PUP

Tuesday did nothing to solve impasse. Trade still possible until Oct. 31 deadline. Don't rule out conduct detrimental to team hammer being used if JT doesn't pass physical at some point.

good

taylor has handled this in a piss poor way. you are under contract. you made in known you are unhappy. now either suit up or sit down and forfeit your checks.

never would have guessed this would have ended up like this.

On top of that... I just read an SI article that mentioned something I didn't know about the PUP list...

Normally only the NFI list can keep a player from accruing a season of service. But...

Apparently the PUP list can also do that in the specific situation of a player in the final year of their contract who remains on PUP for 6 weeks and doesn't play all year.

So Taylor would come back next year still on his rookie deal.

It appears that the Colts asked Miami for Jaylen Waddle. He is the same age as JT, a high level WR. People are saying that asking this is a 'wild request' that had zero chance of ever happening. It goes to show you how people look at the running back position. JT is a top 5 back in the NFL, I don't think Waddle is that at WR-hell he isn't even the best WR on his team-and yet it is ridiculous to think that Miami would trade him for a great running back. JT needs to wake up and realize as good as he is he is just a complimentary piece.

Dolphin fans balked whenever that trade suggestion was made. They are clueless though, they wanted to offload their worst FA signings for JT and just expected the Colts to take it. Delusional fanbase.

I laugh when all these people get mad at the Colts asking for a 1st-rounder. "You don't want to pay him top money, but you want top return?"

I'm thinking, no, dummies... the point was to prove the opposite: "JT can't warrant a 1st-rounder, so we're not going to pay him top money."

Colts didn't really expect a 1st, they just wanted to show that nobody else would "pay" for JT, either.

That reeks of bullshit put out by the agent to make the Colts look bad. I don’t believe that for one second.

Holder and Chappell have both said they weren’t even offered a 2nd round pick.

That’s MUCH more plausible.

How in the hell is asking for your number two wide receiver in exchange for what everyone believes is an all-pro back; who if not the best pure runner in the NFL is damn close to it, outrageous?

Of course they were not offered a 2nd rd pick. His agent is a dick and has poisoned JT. The Colts wanted to show him wtf his real worth is on the open market was. It's not very high.

I think JT is just an emotional guy that can be manipulated...it happens to the best of us.

Hell when I was 24, I was the biggest dumb ass out there.

I mean, I wouldn't make the trade, either. That's the point.
