Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor (ankle) has a chance to play on Thursday, but it is still very much up in the air. According to Colts beat writer George Bremer of The Herald Bulletin, head coach Frank Reich said he’s “not ready to go right now”. Reich also mentioned they have a plan if Taylor does suit up suggesting he could be on a pitch count of sorts.

The RB is "not ready to go right now, but we'll see if he's ready to go Thursday night."
Taylor suffered the ankle injury in their Week 4 loss to the Tennessee Titans. He faces a quick recovery time as the Colts hit Thursday Night Football to take on the Denver Broncos.
In four games this season, Taylor has attempted 81 rushes for 328 yards and a touchdown. He has also hauled in nine receptions for 44 yards. If he cannot go, expect Nyheim Hines and potentially even Deon Jackson to see a fair amount of the workload on Thursday.
