Colts give Jonathan Taylor permission to be Traded

Looks like Taylor is going to have to force the issue. Tell Indy there is no way he is playing football for them this season.

He can’t do that, he won’t accrue the season off his contract.

He needs to show up and keep getting strange injuries.

Grier has his offer in my mind and it's take it or leave it. Like I said, Grier gets trades done quickly. If he REALLY wants a guy, he makes it happen fast. This is not happening folks...

Or Grier’s offer is the best, which it likely is, and Irsay is waiting until Tuesday to take it.

Why would he accept a standing offer before his own self imposed deadline to get a deal done.

If I were a Colts fan if he especially pissed if he didn’t take as much time as possible to make a deal, as opposed to taking the first offer he got.

He has to play in 6 games to accrue the year. Then it's strange injury time

So rather than Colts getting something for JT, they're going to get nothing aaand have to deal with this drama all season long, all while playing a rookie QB. Colts are gonna be a dumpster fire. Trade the man and accrue picks. Dare I say it, learn from the Dolphins strategy

Irsay is gonna do Irsay.

JT called his bluff now he is backpeddling.

Like mentioned above, this probably wont get done.

That’s what I’m thinking.

And from Indy perspective, while I don’t want to think about it, acquiring a pick from a team with medical concerns at QB is the kind of gamble you’d prefer.

That’s the advantage our offer would have over Philly or Buffalo’s, even though I’d rather not have that advantage. In addition to the advantage of living in South Florida over Buffalo or Philly.

I think the opposite. Phins are in a superior bargaining position. JT doesn’t wwnt to be there and will probably sit out. Grier can just sit back and watch all the drama to play out in Indy until they cave.
 
I still don't think Irsays Tues deadline is a guaranteed endpoint but I do think he'll go somewhere by then as bidding teams want to establish their own roster sooner rather than later.

That can’t be the case, then guys hurt in the first 6 weeks would never be free agents either.

There has to be more to it than that.

From NFL.com

Basically, in order to accrue a season, the player needs to be on the team's active/inactive list, injured reserve or reserve PUP for at least six regular-season games in a given season. Credited seasons: Used as a measure for many benefits, it's most notably utilized to determine a player's minimum salary.

The only way he doesn't accrue the season is if he voluntarily holds out, which is pretty apparent he isn't doing. He's using the "injury" loophole to not play and force the trade.
 
Time to focus on other things. JT would be better than Cook It would be worth it just to see the Jets fan base go WHAT!!!
