Jonathan Taylor returns to Colts, Pat McAfee and social media react
Jonathan Taylor says he's healthy and ready to play for the Indianapolis Colts this season.
After that, there's little clarity. The running back who asked for a trade during training camp could be coming off the Physically Unable to Perform list in time for a Week 5 game against the Tennessee Titans.
Colts fans are excited by the possibilities of Taylor and rookie quarterback Anthony Richardson working together.
Of course, social media had plenty to say (mostly about fantasy football ramifications) about Taylor's return, including Taylor Swift, pro wrestling, the Grinch and "The Wire" references.
Pat McAfee and former Colts coach Chuck Pagano have a lot to say about it.

On behalf of #Colts nation, I herby exonerate Jonathan Taylor (not his agent though) from the controversy that took place during the offseason. Welcome back 🐐
I’ll speak for myself on this, but I hope you dominate and get your 💰. #ForTheShoe pic.twitter.com/9DeMHf9FEC— Logan (@SconnieColt) October 5, 2023
don’t care if Jonathan Taylor plays this week or not (especially given TEN’s run D), just happy to see him back at practice claiming he’s at full strength 🙏🏻
