The NFL trade deadline is less than 24 hours away, and a big name continues to pop up in trade talks.
At this time last year, the Indianapolis Colts had one of the best records in the NFL and acquired Sauce Gardner for two first-round picks. Since that 2025 trade deadline, the Colts are 3-14 (.176), the second-worst record in the league during that span.
Now sitting at 2-7, Indianapolis has already traded Quenton Nelson and DeForest Buckner. Star running back Jonathan Taylor could be nextand he is the biggest name on the market with a real chance of being dealt by Tuesday afternoon.
Taylor even offered what sounded like a heartfelt farewell to Colts fans on Sunday: “I’m very thankful for the city of Indianapolis.”
So which team will step in and pull the trigger? Let’s take a look at the Oddschecker odds on where Jonathan Taylor will land after tomorrow’s deadline.

Indianapolis Colts: +213
New England Patriots: +335
New York Giants: +426
Minnesota Vikings: +733
Denver Broncos: +1150
Green Bay Packers: +1150
Cincinnati Bengals: +3233
Seattle Seahawks: +3233
Here’s what you need to know about the chart of accounts.
Favorite: Despite all the trade talk, Taylor is still favored to stay in Indy. Since entering the NFL with the Colts in 2020, Taylor has rushed for 8,254 yards and 77 touchdowns in 93 regular season games, averaging 4.82 yards per carry. He ranks second among NFL players in rushing yards, rushing touchdowns and carries that span, behind Derrick Henry in each category. Taylor has also added 213 receptions for 1,689 receiving yards. Will this be the end of his run in Indianapolis, or will he continue to build on these numbers with the Colts?
Possible trade destinations: The Patriots have the best chance to land Taylor in a trade with sidelined TreVeyon Henderson, followed by the Giants, who have dealt with multiple injuries in the backfield and haven’t shown full faith in Cam Skattebo. The Vikings sit atop the NFC despite their offensive struggles, and Taylor could be the piece that unlocks that unit. Then there are the Packers, who have one of the NFL’s best offenses despite averaging the fewest rushing yards per game. Could the addition of Taylor make them unstoppable? JT’s final destination could change the entire Super Bowl landscape.
