Jonathan Taylor Ruled Out For Week 5 Matchup
2 years agoIndianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor (ankle) will not play in Thursday night's matchup against the Denver Broncos. The star running back suffered an ankle injury late in the Colts' 24-17 Week 4 loss to the Tennessee Titans. While the third-year back hoped to play this week, the quick turnaround proved to be a problem. Without Taylor, the Colts will rely on a combination of Nyheim Hines, Deon Jackson and Phillip Lindsay. Of the three, Hines has the most fantasy appeal, especially in PPR leagues. However, the matchup against Denver makes all three risky options, at best. Fantasy managers should instead look for another alternative to replace Taylor this week.
