Adam Schefter: Seahawks among teams ‘expected to consider’ Jonathan Taylor trade

ESPN’s Adam Schefter says the Seattle Seahawks are one of four teams—alongside the Vikings, Packers and Broncos—considering a trade for Colts star running back Jonathan Taylor. The 27‑year‑old posted 1,585 rushing yards and 18 touchdowns in 2026, but his contract ramps up to $16 million in 2027 and $18 million in 2028, posing a salary‑cap challenge for John Schneider’s front office. Seattle, hampered by injuries to rookie Jadarian Price and Zach Charbonnet, has struggled with its running game this season (3‑3 record). The trade deadline is Nov. 10, giving the Seahawks time to decide.

Minnesota Vikings Expected to Have Interest in Trading for First-Team All-Pro

The Minnesota Vikings, riding a perfect start post‑bye, are signaling interest in trading for Indianapolis Colts star running back Jonathan Taylor before the Nov. 10 deadline. General manager Nolan Teasley, eager to imprint his roster, sees Taylor—who is entering the final year of his contract—as a solution to the Vikings’ future RB concerns, especially with Aaron Jones and Jordan Mason also nearing free agency. Sources say the Vikings, along with the Broncos, Packers and Seahawks, may need to offer at least a third‑round pick in 2028, as the Colts weigh keeping the three‑time Pro Bowler or cashing in his value.

Kurt Warner repeatedly confuses Jaylen Warren with Tyler Warren

During the NFL Network's Steelers‑Saints game from the Stade de France, commentator Kurt Warner repeatedly misnames Pittsburgh running back Jaylen Warren as "Tyler Warren," the Colts tight end, even praising him as the league's top yards‑after‑catch runner. After three slip‑ups, his co‑hosts finally correct him. The mix‑up occurs just weeks after the two Warrens faced off in a 34‑22 Steelers win over the Colts.

Indianapolis Colts discussion: Week 7 live chat during the Vikings game

The Indianapolis Colts face the Minnesota Vikings in Week 7 (kickoff 1:00 p.m. EST) amid the fallout from head coach Chris Ballard’s dismissal after a 26‑20 loss to the Titans. The author highlights the Colts' modest offensive edge (311 yards, 24 pts per game) but points out defensive woes (351 yards, 27 pts allowed) and a turnover‑prone offense (11 giveaways vs. 3 takeaways). Conversely, the Vikings boast a stronger defense (260 yards, 13 pts allowed) and better ball security. A prediction favors Minnesota 26‑13, with a possible backup quarterback appearance for Indianapolis. The post also promotes live chat on the SB Nation app.

Peyton Manning has no plans to trade ManningCast for Colts’ front office

According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, Peyton Manning has no interest in the Indianapolis Colts' vacant general‑manager spot and the team hasn't even contacted him. Manning remains focused on his Omaha Productions empire—ManningCast, Peyton’s Places, Eli’s Places, NFL Honors, the ESPYs and multiple podcasts—with a nine‑year ESPN extension through 2034 and lucrative endorsement deals. Though former host Dan Patrick suggested the Colts might offer Manning a GM role with an ownership stake, Schefter says any front‑office move is unlikely. The decision also keeps the ManningCast intact and leaves the Monday Night Football booth shuffle open, with Greg Olsen emerging as the likely Aikman replacement.

Why the Seahawks could trade for Quenton Nelson

The Seattle Seahawks, fresh off a Super Bowl win, are eyeing a potential trade for Colts guard Quenton Nelson as they struggle with pass protection and a stagnant run game. Nelson, a 30‑year‑old eight‑time Pro Bowler with a league‑leading 89.2 PFF grade and no sacks allowed in 407 snaps, is entering a contract year, making Indianapolis likely to entertain offers. Seattle’s right guard spot, currently held by Anthony Bradford, has underperformed, prompting head coach John Schneider to consider a bold upgrade before the Nov. 10 deadline. A Nelson deal could reshape the Seahawks’ interior line and revive their rushing efficiency.

NFL trade rumors: 49ers could make a run at Colts DT DeForest Buckner

ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports that the San Francisco 49ers are the only team actively pursuing a trade for Colts defensive tackle DeForest Buckner, who stars at the position and will hit free agency in 2027. Buckner, a former 49er (2016‑19) and now 32, has four sacks this season and ranks among the league’s top defensive linemen, yet Indianapolis is expected to move on if they miss the playoffs. The 49ers could reacquire him without surrendering a first‑ or second‑round pick, since Buckner’s contract is in its final year and he is reportedly eager to leave Indianapolis. The article also notes the Colts’ broader trade chatter around Jonathan Taylor and Quenton Nelson.
