Here’s what a trade package for Jonathan Taylor might look like, and how the Patriots could make it work

Following reports that the Indianapolis Colts are willing to trade star running back Jonathan Taylor ahead of the deadline, Boston.com's Colin McCarthy analyzes a potential trade package for the New England Patriots. McCarthy proposes that New England could offer running back TreVeyon Henderson alongside a future second-round draft pick and another Day 2 selection to acquire Taylor.

According to McCarthy, the trade would require New England to manage significant salary cap constraints, with Taylor due $44 million over the next two seasons. The piece also notes that the Patriots face competition from several rival suitors, with the Minnesota Vikings reportedly heavily interested alongside the Packers, Giants, and Broncos.
