Jonathan Taylor's 2021 season was simply historic as he finished with 1,811 rushing yards for 18 touchdowns and 360 receiving yards for two more scores. His 377.1 fantasy points (PPR) was the most among running backs and the fourth-most across all positions. In just his second season, Taylor was the runner-up for the AP Offensive Player of the Year award.
However, the former second round pick out of Wisconsin only played 11 games in 2022 due to numerous injuries, recording 861 rushing yards for four touchdowns and 143 receiving yards. Taylor's 152.4 fantasy points (PPR) was the 31st among all running backs. His struggles also stemmed from the Colts having two head coaches and a multitude of injuries on both sides of the ball.
The cleanup process began when the Colts hired Philadelphia Eagles offensive coordinator Shane Steichen as their head coach this offseason. Former Eagles running back Miles Sanders had the best season of his career in 2022, and earned Pro Bowler honors under Steichen's system. This could mean that the already-proven Taylor may be a large focus point in Steichen's new offense. Given a rookie is likely to be starting at quarterback, the offensive gameplan should be to constantly feed Taylor the ball, giving him the potential to exceed his historic 2021 season and return to No.1 on the fantasy football draft board in 2024.

Bengals move on from Joe Mixon, sign Zack Moss Two-year, $8 million deal for Moss By: Mike Krueger | Mon Mar 11, 10:04 pm
| | The #Bengals have agreed to terms with RB Zack Moss on a two-year, $8 million deal, sources tell me and @TomPelissero. The deal includes $4.525 million in the first year for Moss, who cashes in after showing what he could do in Jonathan Taylor’s absence last year. (Mike Garafolo on X)
FFToday's Take: Moss played in a workhorse role last season while Jonathan Taylor missed time, and proved to be a valuable contributor. He'll pair with second-year player Chase Brown who has more burst but is best suited for a change-of-pace role. Trayveon Williams and Chris Evans are also on the roster. One player who isn't' on the roster anymore is Joe Mixon, who was released today. Mixon (27) posted 1410 total yards and 12 TDs last season playing in all 17 games for the Bengals.
