Colts HC Shane Steichen said the team isn’t considering benching QB Daniel Jones after Sunday’s loss. Jones threw one interception and posted a 52.8 QBR in a loss to the undefeated Vikings, and QB Anthony Richardson Sr. was recently cited for marijuana possession. It now appears as though both Jones and Steichen are on the […]

The Indianapolis Colts fall to the Minnesota Vikings 16-10 on Sunday, extending their losing streak to three games and dropping to 2-5. Daniel Jones throws for just 108 yards and six interceptions, while the offense sputters with two missed field goals by Spencer Shrader and a critical holding penalty that stalls a goal-to-go drive before halftime. Jonathan Taylor leads the team with 110 scrimmage yards and a 38-yard TD, but the Colts cannot overcome the Vikings’ league‑high two takeaways per game. Minnesota’s pass rush and Kyler Murray’s late TD seal the win, leaving Indianapolis with a -8 turnover margin – the worst in the NFL – and fueling speculation about a quarterback change.

The Indianapolis Colts lost to the Minnesota Vikings in Week 7, and here are some difficult challenges learned from the game.
Amid a 2-4 start and the firing of GM Chris Ballard, Colts running back Jonathan Taylor’s wife, Ayana Chapman, addressed trade rumors in an Instagram video on Oct. 25. She noted the team’s struggles, the uncertainty surrounding Taylor’s future, and how a move would affect their family, while Taylor himself says he’s focused on the upcoming Vikings game. With the trade deadline on Nov. 10, the Colts have yet to decide, though ESPN links the Giants and Vikings as possible suitors.
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.

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.
The Minnesota Vikings will look to push their record to 6-0 on Sunday afternoon when they play host to the Indianapolis Colts.

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).
