BALLER MOVE: Start In All Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: RB1
ANALYSIS: After missing Indy's last three games following thumb surgery, Taylor is set to return to the Colts lineup in Week 16 after getting in a week's worth of full practices. It couldn't come at a better time for an Indy squad that's fighting for a playoff berth, as both RB Zack Moss and WR Michael Pittman Jr. have been ruled out for this Week 16 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons.
Jonathan Taylor Officially Removed From Injury Report, Will Play In Week 16 https://t.co/IGLdmkpPtj

Before suffering the thumb injury, Taylor had started to find his form and had found the end zone in five straight games. With Moss sidelined, we should see Taylor get all the work he can handle on the ground, though his thumb issue may limit his role in the passing game.
The Falcons have been tough on opposing running backs and are yet to allow a rushing TD this year to the RB position. Despite the injury issues and less-than-juicy matchup, Taylor's talent and expected usage make him a must-start fantasy option for his managers in semifinal matchups this week.
