Jonathan Taylor 2025 Fantasy Football Outlook: Another RB1 Season On Tap
Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor had some injury-riddled seasons in 2022 and 2023. He played a combined 21 games in those two years while finishing as the RB33 in PPR formats in both seasons. However, Taylor bounced back in a big way in 2024. He rushed 303 times for 1,431 yards and 11 touchdowns across 14 games and finished as the RB12 in PPR formats. While injuries remain a concern for the 26-year-old, it's going to be hard to pass on him in the second round of drafts. He averaged 17.5 PPR fantasy points last season and remains a workhorse back in this Indianapolis offense. Taylor was just one of six running backs to total over 300 carries last season. With no competition for touches and a top-10 offensive line blocking for him, the former Wisconsin product should finish as a fantasy RB1 again. However, fantasy managers shouldn't expect a top-5 running back finish for him in 2025, given his lack of work in the receiving game. Taylor caught just 18 passes for 136 yards and one touchdown last season. Still, he is a high-floor selection early in drafts.
