Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor suffered an ankle injury during the first quarter of Saturday’s game against the Minnesota Vikings and was ruled out for the remainder of the game.

Taylor suffered the ankle injury after catching a screen pass on the second offensive play of the game. He took the pass for 13 yards but his ankle was rolled on when he was tackled.

Taylor was tended to on the sideline, then went to the blue tent and then to the locker room all before being ruled out by the end of the first quarter.

It has been a frustrating season for Taylor, who has been dealing with a nagging ankle injury for the majority of the campaign.

With Taylor out, the Colts will lean on Deon Jackson and Zack Moss out of the backfield.
