Jonathan Taylor’s Classy Remark About Missing the Colts’ Last Play on the Field Reggie Wayne Delivers Positive Message After Tough Loss to End Season.
If Jonathan Taylor was upset about the way the Indianapolis Colts’ Week 18 loss to the Houston Texans ended, ehttps://sportsuv.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/nnjb.jpgliminating them from postseason contention, then nobody could have blamed him.
With just over a minute remaining in the game, the Colts attempted a fourth-and-1 in the red zone, but Taylor was not on the field. He left the game briefly due to a heel injury before coming back. This play eventually ended with Indianapolis halfback Tyler Goodson dropping the ball.
Taylor was asked if he wanted to play in the game’s last play after it ended. Stephen Holder of ESPN on X, formerly known as Twitter, reports that the Colts running back elegantly replied, telling reporters that “no one second-guessed any of Shane’s calls.”
“He has been a masterpiece all year long. That being said, we are confident in whatever is optimized. These plays have been rehearsed 100 times during practice. We never call a play in which we lack confidence. That’d never take place,” Taylor went on.
Taylor ran for 188 yards and a touchdown, so it wouldn’t be shocking if he had any reservations about Steichen’s call given how well he performed. There were many reasons for Taylor to regret his choice, especially considering that he was in a contract holdout with the Colts until October. Unconsciously supporting his coach, Taylor went with the team-first strategy.
The Indianapolis Colts’ regular season of 2023 did not conclude as fans had hoped. The team was eliminated from the playoffs in Week 18 after losing to the Houston Texans 23-19. Reggie Wayne, the wide receivers coach for the Colts, reminded the team of their progress during Shane Steichen’s first season on X, which was formerly Twitter, despite the loss. “A pleasant time of year. Wayne tweeted on January 7th, saying, “It’s not the goal we had envisioned, but the arrow is definitely pointing upwards.” “Thanks to the true Colts fans for their support all season through the ups and downs.”Trust me, this team and your souls are about to experience excitement.
