The Indianapolis Colts will return one of two key offensive starters at age 7 after hosting the Miami Dolphins. On Friday, head coach Shane Steichen announced that running back Jonathan Taylor will miss his third straight game due to his sprained ankle, while quarterback Anthony Richardson will return to the lineup closer to missing the final two games, according to the NFL Average.
Taylor pushed for 349 yards and four touchdowns in the first four games of the season before suffering ankle trauma against the Pittsburgh Steelers when he was four years old. Trey Sermon started in his park, rushing for 67 yards and one touchdown. 28 carries over to video games for two years. Tyler Goodson was the Colts’ leading rusher against the Tennessee Titans, gaining 51 yards on eight carries.
The big news is that Richardson is back at shortstop and has missed the last two games due to indirect trauma. He was an integral player in the practice of this life, so this announcement is a negative surprise. Joe Flacco has saved the Colts offense afloat through two weeks of age, completing 67% of his passes for 548 yards, 5 touchdowns and an interception. Richardson, for his part, threw three touchdowns and six interceptions in his first four starts.

The previous Negative. The fourth overall pick from Florida leads the NFL in yards per touch (16.8, min. 75 attempts), but is second in interceptions with six. The Colts have received 3 outs in their last four games with a 0-2 record in the closest season and have a good chance of going over .500 against a Dolphins team that averages 1.1 yards per force, the worst mark in the NFL.
