## Key points

- The Colts kept Jonathan Taylor after seeking a larger trade return.
- Offers for Grover Stewart were also withdrawn.
- Josh Downs and Keenan Allen were traded for draft picks.

## Summary

The Indianapolis Colts received trade offers for running back Jonathan Taylor and defensive tackle Grover Stewart before the NFL deadline, but neither player was moved. The team reportedly wanted a bigger return for Taylor and waited for better terms on Stewart, while the offers were eventually withdrawn; the outcome leaves the Colts with fewer additional draft picks as they look to rebuild after a poor season.

The reported Giants offer for Taylor included a second- and fifth-round pick, but New York pulled it after the Colts sought a first-round selection or more. Stewart’s offer reportedly rose from a fifth-round pick to a fourth-rounder plus a late-round pick before it too was withdrawn. The Colts did trade receivers Josh Downs and Keenan Allen, receiving a fourth- and fifth-round pick for Downs and a 2027 sixth-round pick for Allen; they also kept quarterback Daniel Jones despite reported discussions with Minnesota.
