Buffalo ‘Expressed Interest’ in Trading for unbelievable star, according to Bills rumors.
Buffalo ‘Expressed Interest’ in Trading for Jonathan Taylor, according to Bills rumors.
Jonathan Taylor of the Indianapolis Colts makes a significant gain on the Tennessee Titans.
James Cook, a second-year running back, has been assigned the responsibility of being the team’s primary ball carrier, while veterans Damien Harris and Latavius Murray provide a powerful punch in short-yardage situations.
The Buffalo Bills have found a winning combination in their backfield.
The Bills are still searching elsewhere for additional assistance despite the rushing game’s strong start.
According to Destin Adams of AtoZ Sports, the Bills are one of a select group of teams to inquire about the whereabouts of Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor, who asked for a trade before being put on the PUP list to begin the season.
Although it’s unclear whether the Bills are actually interested or are merely evaluating the Colts’ asking price, the report caused some Bills supporters to scratch their heads.
Colts actively hear proposals.
According to Adams, the Colts are taking calls from interested teams and might be open to a trade if another team is willing to match their asking price, which is currently unknown.
Adams stated that the Colts “will continue to listen to calls as they come in” despite the trade request’s current status.
“Teams will abide by Taylor’s request if they are prepared to pay their asking price. If a team cannot pay that amount, they still prefer Taylor to play in Shane Steichen’s offense and, if all goes well, to remain with them after this season.
“.
The Bills are being encouraged to pursue Taylor by some insiders.
The Bills would have a ticket to the Super Bowl with Taylor on the roster, ESPN’s Sal Paolantonio stated during an appearance on “Get Up” on August 22.
The Buffalo Bills will win the Super Bowl if they acquire Jonathan Taylor, according to Paolantonio.
Taylor has already been monitored by a number of teams, according to Adams.
The Colts have spoken with the Miami Dolphins, Green Bay Packers, Pittsburgh Steelers, Los Angeles Rams, Kansas City Chiefs, and Washington Commanders in addition to the Bills.
Taylor will be eligible to come off the PUP list and return to the lineup if he’s healthy on Monday, according to Adams, and the Colts plan to activate him at that time.
On the Ground Bills Strong.
Through three weeks, the Bills’ ground game has been effective, with Cook ranked No. 3 with 267 rushing yards in the NFL.
Through the first three games, Murray and Harris have amassed a total of 96 yards and three rushing touchdowns, while Josh Allen, the quarterback, has added an additional 89 yards and one rushing score.
Before the start of the season, Bills offensive coordinator Ken Dorsey expressed his satisfaction with Cook’s development and predicted that he would have a bigger role this year.
According to Dorsey, who spoke to SI .
com, “Just the ability to finish runs, I think, is really encouraging to see, those hidden yards of getting an extra, you know, 1 or 2 yards to keep us out of perhaps second-and-1 or third-and-1.”.
“Those [are] things that he’s really developed and improved on, just the physical aspect of it, you know, and not always necessarily, hey, I don’t need to hit a home run, there are times where I just need to get an extra 2 or 3 yards to help us.
Therefore, those things have been significant for us.
“And after that, I’m just eager to watch him let loose and play freely, quickly, and confidently.
