GettyThe Green Bay Packers are among a handful of teams interested in making a trade for running back Jonathan Taylor, but they may have to settle for a secondary target like Saquon Barkley based on the interest the Colts are getting in its three-time Pro Bowl RB ahead of the November 10 NFL trade deadline.Regardless of which RB target the Packers favor most, the chances they explore an addition seriously in the coming week recently skyrocketed as previous allegations of physical abuse against Josh Jacobs from three new women emerged on Friday, October 30.Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk reported on Sunday that the new developments may well result in Green Bay severing ties with Jacobs.“Both the NFL and the Packers declined comment regarding the new statement, in response to inquiries from PFT,” Florio wrote. “Regardless of the comments from the people who are representing Jacobs, the league will do its due diligence. The Packers surely will, too. And they could, potentially, decide to move on from Jacobs — especially if any of the new information is inconsistent with anything he has previously told the team.”Vikings, Giants Frontrunners to Deal for Jonathan TaylorGettyIndianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor.
The Packers, like every other team in the NFL currently in need of a running back, probably prefer Taylor over any other option.“The list of teams that have expressed at least some level of interest in trading for Taylor is thought to include the Denver Broncos, Green Bay Packers, Minnesota Vikings and New York Giants, sources said,” ESPN’s Adam Schefter and Ian Rapoport reported Saturday.However, Jonathan Jones of The Athletic wrote Saturday that the Vikings and Giants are the frontrunners for Taylor. “The Vikings and Giants appear to be the favorites to land [Taylor],” Jones explained. “So either the Vikings would have to rearrange a deal or two, or the Colts would have to eat some of his salary, which would likely drive the price up for the acquiring team.” Moreover, Indianapolis may be hunting as much as a first-round pick for Taylor based on a Saturday report from Tom Pelissero. Green Bay doesn’t have a first-rounder in 2027 due to the trade the team made last August with the Dallas Cowboys for injured pass-rusher Micah Parsons.“The Colts already turned down a 2027 second-round draft pick plus an additional pick for RB Jonathan Taylor, making clear they’d want a premium to trade the face of the franchise,” Pelissero posted to X.Saquon Barkley
