Colts RB Jonathan Taylor suffered a high-ankle sprain in the Week 4 win over the Steelers. "It’s believed to be a pretty mild version," Rapoport adds. "Indy will get a full report tomorrow, but in the words of one source, 'He’s ok.'"

We'll look for a more concrete timetable for Taylor's return. High-ankle sprains often cost RBs 4+ weeks, although it sounds like Taylor might not be out that long.

Taylor owners should at least start preparing to be without him for Week 5. His absence would leave Trey Sermon as the Colts' lead back, with RB Tyler Goodson also mixing in. Sermon is the waiver target, although he'll likely land in RB3 territory in the Week 5 Rankings.
