The Indianapolis Colts have found themselves at odds with Jonathan Taylor.
Taylor’s offseason has been tumultuous, requesting a trade from the organization while recovering from an injury.
He has been seen off-and-on at training camp, spending significant time away from the team.
However, according to Colts reporter James Boyd, Shane Steichen said Taylor will travel with the Colts to Philadelphia.

The Colts and Eagles are slated to face off on Thursday Night Football, their final preseason game.
Before this contest, the teams will take part in a joint practice, which Taylor is now slated to attend.
It’s unclear whether he’ll play in the preseason game given his recent injury concerns and trouble with the team.
He is one of the team’s top play-makers, and they might want to keep him on the sideline until the regular season.
This situation will be one to monitor, especially for NFL fans that are also active in the fantasy football scene.
While he’s performed as one of the league’s top backs, Taylor’s production was slightly diminished in 2022.
Any injury or minor setback could be detrimental to his progress and could lead to less playing time.
The Colts are working tirelessly to improve after their 4-12-1 campaign last season, the organization’s worst season record since 2017.
While the Jacksonville Jaguars may have won the AFC South in 2022, the division is the Colts’ for the taking if all goes to plan.
Anthony Richardson could shine in his first season at quarterback, and if Taylor is back to normal, their offense could be surprisingly good.
