Only two Indianapolis Colts players were named to Pro Football Focus’ top-101 players from the 2021 season, a list that was released on Monday.
One of the players is obvious. Running back Jonathan Taylor finished the campaign as the league’s best running back and it wasn’t even close. He came in at No. 15 overall in PFF’s rankings from the 2021 season.
15. RB JONATHAN TAYLOR, INDIANAPOLIS COLTS
2021 Snaps: 729 | 2021 PFF Grade: 86.0The MVP talk for Taylor went a little too far, but it highlighted his incredible year for the Colts. When the team’s offensive line got healthy, it was a catalyst to supercharge Taylor’s already impressive individual performance. He averaged 3.8 yards per carry after contact, breaking 65 tackles on 332 carries overall. Taylor is an elite ball carrier regardless of the blocking, but when that blocking was good, he was a production monster.
