Colts RB Jonathan Taylor is coming off of one of the best RB seasons we’ve ever seen.
The second-year pro had 1,811 rushing yards in 332 attempts and 18 touchdowns, with 360 receiving yards and two touchdowns. He was pretty much the Colts’ offense, and it will probably be the same next season because they’ll have a new QB after trading Carson Wentz.
He carried that team, so a break is definitely needed. For Taylor, that break includes getting engaged.
Taylor has been dating former Ball State field hockey player Ayanna Chapman, and he has now put a ring on it. In pics shared by Taylor, it looks like he proposed at the beach and looks like he went all out.
Congrats to the two.
Colts will have a new QB in 2022 after the team traded Carson Wentz.
The problem is this is the wrong offseason to think the answer at quarterback is out there. The Colts currently have quarterbacks Sam Ehlinger and James Morgan on the roster — neither of whom has started an NFL game. They don’t have a first-round pick, and Mitchell Trubisky is the most notable free-agent quarterback available.
Jimmy Garoppolo’s days with the San Francisco 49ers could be numbered, so a trade could be possible, but the Colts have to ask themselves if he’s truly a long-term player at that position or just another short-timer. There is also a health element with Garoppolo. He recently had shoulder surgery, which could cause him to miss most of the offseason. Garoppolo missed 13 games in 2018 with a torn ACL and 10 games in 2020 because of an ankle injury.
“Ultimately, you have to have a guy who you believe in, and you can win with,” Ballard said on March 1. “That will play some into it, but ultimately, we’ll make the decision that we think is best. Both in the short and long term.”
I think they should take a look at Marcus Mariota.
Congrats to the happy couple.
