According to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero, the Indianapolis Colts are fielding strong trade interest in guard Quenton Nelson and defensive tackle DeForest Buckner ahead of the November 10 deadline. Both veterans are in the final year of their contracts—Nelson, an eight‑time Pro Bowler and former sixth‑overall pick, has played six games this season, while Buckner also draws suitors. The team also expects offers for running back Jonathan Taylor, though his recent extension makes a move less likely. With a 2‑4 record, a fired GM and interim leadership, the Colts say they’ll assess the market after upcoming games against Minnesota, Jacksonville and Dallas before deciding whether to sell.

The Vikings break down their Week 7 showdown with the Indianapolis Colts, focusing on three key questions. First, will wideout Jauan Jennings finally get featured in the opening script and silence trade rumors? Second, can defensive coordinator Brian Flores keep the Vikings' aggressive defense humming against a run‑heavy Jonathan Taylor and force a quarterback pass rush?

His name is Jonathan Taylor, and we have been on the team […] The post “Husband Might Get Traded”: Jonathan Taylor’s Wife Shares Blunt Reaction to Potential Colts Exit Amid RB’s Trade Rumors appeared first on EssentiallySports .
NFL insider Tom Pelissero says the Indianapolis Colts have no players off‑limits if they decide to become major sellers before the Nov. 10 trade deadline. Guard Quenton Nelson, DT DeForest Buckner and RB Jonathan Taylor are all drawing interest, with owners reportedly giving coach Shane Steichen two weeks to try to turn the ship around. The upcoming schedule—an away game at the 5‑0 Vikings and a clash with AFC South‑leading Jaguars—doesn’t help. Analysts suggest trading veterans Buckner, Grover Stewart and possibly CB Charvarius Ward for mid‑round picks, while Nelson or Taylor would likely require a future first‑rounder, which the Colts lack after the 2025 Sauce Gardner deal.
The Indianapolis Colts reshuffle their roster ahead of Week 7 at Minnesota, promoting veteran LB Germaine Pratt and CB Kenneth Harris to the practice squad. Pratt, who posted 101 tackles, an interception and a forced fumble in 12 starts last season, returns as insurance after rookie LB CJ Allen is out with an ankle and Bryce Boettcher remains questionable. Simultaneously, the team releases punter Thomas Morstead, keeping Rigoberto Sanchez eligible for the Vikings game. Harris, a 24‑year‑old former Patriots undrafted rookie, has appeared in one game this season.
The Stampede Blue analyses the Indianapolis Colts' future after GM Chris Ballard's firing, noting his failure to secure a strong coaching staff as the biggest flaw alongside quarterback turnover and defensive draft misses. With reports of a possible fire sale and a tentative roster, the author doubts the upcoming season will improve, especially as interim coaches Lou and Shane remain. Still, there’s a glimmer of hope that a young defensive line, a better O‑line, and wideout Kenny Burks could spark a turnaround before the season ends.
The Vikings sit 5-0 but hosts Darren Campbell, Dave Stefano and Drew Bunting warn they must tighten up before a tougher stretch. They stress that quarterback Kyler Murray needs to replicate his New Orleans performance—quick rhythm, leg use, low turnovers—while spreading the ball to addends like Addison, Hockenson and Jennings. Brian Flores’ defense remains elite, yet upcoming matchups with the Bills, 49ers, Packers and Bears will test its depth. Health concerns loom, recalling the 2016 injury‑ridden collapse, and the trade deadline looms with rumors of targeting Jonathan Taylor, Quenton Nelson or Budda Baker. Meanwhile, the Colts are in disarray after GM Chris Ballard’s firing, making the upcoming game a potential statement for Minnesota.
The Vikings, Texans and Broncos should offer the Colts trades for Jonathan Taylor that Indianapolis cannot turn down.
