Colts’ Jonathan Taylor named FedEx Ground Player of the Week

Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor was named the FedEx Ground Player of the Week for his performance against the Houston Texans in Week 6.

Despite the slow start during the first half of the game, Taylor wound up taking 14 carries for 145 rushing yards and two rushing touchdowns with a long of 83 yards in the divisional win.

Taylor has been on fire over the last three games. In that span, he’s taken 45 carries for 301 rushing yards and four touchdowns (6.69 YPC) while adding seven receptions for 140 receiving yards and a receiving touchdown.

The Colts will continue to try and get Taylor the ball as much as possible. His Week 6 performance shows just how easily he can take over a game.
