I applaud the organization for standing firm here, despite the blowback.

I literally stopped listening to the one percent better podcast because those guys never stopped whining about how unfair it was that the team wasn’t paying him.

I got sick of it.

The whole thing doesn't make any sense as he's still under contract. I got sick of it pretty quick.

JT: I'm here. I'm committed. Been over 290 days. Looking forward to attacking practice.

JT: I'm not here to get into any contract things. That was an offseason issue.

JT: I'm here right now. What this city needs is a championship.

IDK, I don't know what his baseline is within the context of body language and his responses to media questions. As impressive as he is, I've always thought he sounded a little corny.

I thought he could have presented a better argument for himself during the press conference today. It was clearly about more than "being healthy" but I guess he's trying play nice.

Hopefully his ass runs his way into some other team giving up the value for him because after that, Irsay and Ballard might as well franchise his ass since that's all it was about (Health).

I definitely have an opinion about this guy, but I'll keep it to myself...for now.

I haven’t watched the press conference but from some of the quotes, it doesn’t sound like he’s doing himself any favors. Almost an “I’m just here so I don’t get fined” vibe.

I don’t expect him to last very long. He sure as hell won’t play injured, we know that much. Next time he gets dinged, he’s out for the year.

The Colts have activated Jonathan Taylor from the PUP list today.

Looks like JT will play on Sunday.

The Colts on Saturday activated running back Jonathan Taylor from the Reserve/Physically Unable to Perform list, meaning the 2021 NFL rushing leader will be available to play in Sunday's Week 5 matchup against the Tennessee Titans at Lucas Oil Stadium.

Taylor was listed as a full participant in practice this week, and head coach Shane Steichen intimated Taylor could be ready both physically and mentally to play as soon as this weekend. Taylor spoke to the media on Thursday and said he's feeling "very healthy" after being designated to return to practice on Wednesday.

Since his NFL debut in 2020, Taylor's 5.1 yards per carry average ranks third among running backs.

"I know he's a great player and I know I can do some things pretty well," quarterback Anthony Richardson said. "Just trying to combine those two things, I can only imagine what it's like but we won't see until it actually happens. We'll see and I'm excited."

In a corresponding move, the Colts waived running back Jake Funk.
