The Facts: Following up on the previous item. ... The Colts have given Taylor until Tuesday to find a suitable trade after authorizing the star running back earlier this week to engage with other teams in search of a trade partner.
Diehards Line:
Six teams have inquired about Taylor's availability, and two have engaged the Colts with offers, a source told ESPN.com's Stephen Holder on Wednesday. The situation remains fluid, and it is unclear whether a team is willing to meet the Colts' trade demands, which have been described by sources as being a first-round pick or a package of picks worth similar value. While the Colts have made it known they will hold firm on their price tag in a potential trade, they also face a delicate situation if Taylor remains in Indianapolis. They first declined Taylor's request for an extension in May, a source said, and that position hasn't changed. Taylor still wants out, multiple sources tell Holder, so reintegrating him into the lineup could present challenges. The Colts do not seem willing to budge on an extension.
