Colts’ Jonathan Taylor, Nyheim Hines practicing to begin Week 7
Indianapolis Colts running backs Jonathan Taylor (ankle) and Nyheim Hines (concussion) were both on the field for practice to begin Week 7.
Both Taylor and Hines were inactive in Week 6 when the Colts beat the Jacksonville Jaguars at Lucas Oil Stadium. It was Deon Jackson who carried the backfield, taking 22 touches for 121 total yards and a touchdown.
But Taylor and Hines both were on the field Wednesday as the Colts prepare to visit the Tennessee Titans in Nashville this week.

It’s vital for their chances to play that they start the week with a practice even if it is in a limited fashion. Hines appeared close to clearing the league’s protocol in Week 6 but didn’t get that final step.
In Taylor’s case, the team was likely being cautious even with a few extra days of rest following the Thursday night game in Week 5.
We’ll see how the rest of the week goes for these backfield mates, but it seems they’re trending toward a return in Week 7.
