No doubt. Crazy thing is this is definitely costing JT money. If he had handled this like a professional similar to MPJ, who IMO has much more leverage currently than JT does, then JT would have gotten paid as long as he had a good year. Probably not Christian McCaffrey money, but at least Derrick Henry/Nick Chubb money. But since he's shown himself to be a total bitch diva then I doubt anyone's going to give him that. Especially when he's under contract, which is what he seems to think he's entitled to.

Also, it's a smaller sample size, but we actually ran the ball better with Moss last year than JT (see below). Which is just another reason why the Colts have all of the leverage.

Moss (4 starts): 4.8 ypc, 87.5 ypg
JT (10 starts): 4.5 ypc, 86.1 ypg
