Colts had Jonathan Taylor and Grover Stewart trade offers but didn’t complete deals that eventually got pulled

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reportedly wanted a bigger return for Taylor and waited for better terms on Stewart, while the offers were eventually withdrawn; the outcome leaves the Colts with fewer additional draft picks as they look to rebuild after a poor season.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 Stewart’s offer reportedly rose from a fifth-round pick to a fourth-rounder plus a late-round pick before it too was withdrawn.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.
