Taylor to miss rest of season with ankle injury

The Indianapolis Colts will be without running back Jonathan Taylor for the remainder of the season after placing him on injured reserve Tuesday, the team announced.

Taylor suffered a high ankle sprain in Saturday's loss to the Minnesota Vikings.

Indianapolis fell to 4-9-1 after the Vikings engineered the largest comeback in NFL history, erasing a 33-point deficit to win in overtime.

Taylor, who missed three games earlier in the year with an ankle injury, wasn't able to replicate his All-Pro form from 2021 amid major struggles for Indianapolis' offense.

He rushed for 861 yards and four touchdowns in 11 appearances after leading the NFL with 1,811 yards and 18 rushing scores last season.

Zack Moss and Deon Jackson will likely lead the Colts' backfield for the rest of the year.
