Still not practicing
Taylor (ankle) won't practice Wednesday, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.
Taylor, who missed this past Sunday's 37-34 loss to the Jaguars, has two more chances to return to practice ahead of this weekend's game against the Titans. If the running back is forced to miss a second straight game, Trey Sermon and Tyler Goodson would be in line to handle the Colts' Week 6 backfield duties.

Ruled out for Week 5
Colts head coach Shane Steichen said Friday that Taylor (ankle) is ruled out for Sunday's matchup against the Jaguars, Kevin Bowen of 107.5 The Fan Indianapolis reports.
Taylor will miss at least one contest due to the right ankle sprain he sustained during Indianapolis' win over the Steelers in Week 4. The star running back didn't practice Wednesday or Thursday, and he wasn't spotted at the portion of Friday's practice open to the media. Trey Sermon and Tyler Goodson will be positioned to lead the Colts' backfield until Taylor is healthy, with his next opportunity to retake the field coming Week 6 on the road against Tennessee.
Not seen as practice opens
Taylor (ankle) wasn't spotted during the initial portion of Friday's practice, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.
Taylor, who is dealing with an ankle sprain, didn't practice Wednesday or Thursday, so his apparent absence early on Friday clouds his status for Sunday's game against the Jaguars. The Colts' upcoming injury report is slated to confirm both Taylor's official participation level Friday as well as his Week 5 game status.
Misses another practice
Taylor (ankle) didn't practice Thursday.
Taylor, who has missed back-to-back practices, noted Thursday that he's taking it "day by day" as Sunday's game against the Jaguars approaches, James Boyd of The Athletic reports. The running back now has one more chance to practice before the Colts issue their final Week 5 injury report, but if Taylor is limited or out this weekend, Trey Sermon and Tyler Goodson are next up for backfield work, with Evan Hull and Trent Pennix candidates to be elevated from the team's practice squad.
Not expected to practice Thursday
Taylor, who continues to deal with an ankle sprain, isn't likely to practice Thursday, Stephen Holder of ESPN.com reports.
The Colts' upcoming injury report will reveal whether Taylor-- who didn't practice Wednesday -- is indeed deemed a non-participant for the second day in a row. If that ends up being the case, he'll have one more opportunity to practice ahead of Sunday's game against the Jaguars. Per Nate Atkins of The Indianapolis Star, Taylor relayed Thursday that his current ankle issue is not as severe as the one that he contended with during the 2022 season.
Not practicing Wednesday
Coach Shane Steichen noted that Taylor (ankle) won't practice Wednesday, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.
Taylor thus has two more chances to return to practice ahead of Sunday's game against the Jaguars, but for now his Week 5 status is cloudy. If he's unavailable this weekend, Trey Sermon and Tyler Goodson are next up for the team's backfield duties, with Evan Hull and Trent Pennix candidates to be elevated from the practice squad.
Not a candidate for IR
The Colts are not considering injured reserve as an option for Taylor (ankle), who sustained a 'mild' high-ankle sprain during the team's 27-24 win over the Steelers in Week 4, Mike Chappell of Fox 59 News Indianapolis reports.
Taylor would have to miss at least four games if placed on IR, but it doesn't look like Indianapolis believes the star running back will require that long a timeframe to complete his recovery. Still, even if Taylor's high-ankle sprain isn't as serious as similar issues he's dealt with in the past, such injuries more often than not result in players having to spend some time on the sideline. Trey Sermon will figure to operate as the Colts' starting running back if Taylor can't suit up on the road against Jacksonville on Sunday, while Tyler Goodson would step into the No. 2 role.
High-ankle sprain viewed as mild
Taylor was diagnosed with a high-ankle sprain after Sunday's 27-24 win over the Steelers, but it's believed to be a mild version of the injury, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Taylor will get additional tests Monday to confirm the diagnosis, but the early news on the ankle injury that forced him out of Sunday's win is relatively positive. This high-ankle sprain isn't believed to be as bad as some of the previous ones Taylor has dealt with. Nonetheless, Taylor may miss some game action, and Trey Sermon would be in line to lead Indianapolis' backfield in Week 5 against the Jaguars if Taylor doesn't play.
Exits Sunday's game
Taylor was forced out of Sunday's game against the Steelers with an ankle injury, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.
Prior to that, Taylor had carried 21 times for 88 yards and a TD and caught three of his four targets for 20 yards. In his absence Trey Sermon and Tyler Goodson are available to handle the Colts' backfield duties.
