The Colts reportedly gave star running back Jonathan Taylor permission to seek a trade on Monday, enabling his agent to attempt to find a suitable landing spot for the 24-year-old.
It may prove difficult for Taylor to facilitate a trade, however. According to SI’s Albert Breer, there are two main thresholds that would need to be met for a deal to get done.
Per Breer, Indianapolis doesn’t intend to simply give away its one-time All-Pro running back. For Taylor to get the trade he’s seeking, he would need to find a team that is not only willing to sign him to a new contract, but also give the Colts a “good” return on top of that.
