Colts Trade Idea Sends Three-Time Pro Bowler to NFC North

A trade proposal from CBS Sports writer Carter Bahns suggests the Indianapolis Colts could trade running back Jonathan Taylor to the Minnesota Vikings. The suggestion follows Indianapolis' decision to part ways with general manager Chris Ballard after nine seasons, which could trigger a roster rebuild and prompt the franchise to move star players to contenders ahead of the trade deadline.

Bahns argues that adding Taylor would elevate Minnesota's rushing attack into Super Bowl contention alongside Aaron Jones and Jordan Mason. Meanwhile, the Colts recently addressed injury issues in their receiving corps by signing three-time Super Bowl champion wide receiver Mecole Hardman Jr. to their practice squad.
