When will Jonathan Taylor return? Week 7 injury update on Colts RB

The Indianapolis Colts are playing at home for the first time since Week 4 on Sunday with a game against the Miami Dolphins. Indianapolis (3-3) has missed starting quarterback Anthony Richardson and running back Jonathan Taylor on the field since that Week 4 win over Pittsburgh.

Both are recovering from injuries and may be back in the lineup for the Colts' game against the Dolphins (2-3). If Indianapolis can get a win, they'd bank a victory before a tough road trip against Houston and Minnesota. Richardson and Taylor would go a long way to helping that effort.

Here's the latest on Taylor's status for Week 7.

When will Jonathan Taylor return?

Taylor did not practice on Wednesday and said that the biggest hurdle to his return is being able to do necessary movements. This does not bode well for his return in Week 7 and may push it out at least another week.

Taylor said Thursday the pain has gone down but he still has work to do.

When was Jonathan Taylor's injury?
