Dolphins’ Chris Grier calls talks with Colts about running back Jonathan Taylor ‘exploratory’
MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — Miami Dolphins general manager Chris Grier said Wednesday that conversations with the Indianapolis Colts about 2021 All-Pro running back Jonathan Taylor were “exploratory,” and no official offers were exchanged between the two teams. Miami also has rookie running back De’Von Achane, Salvon Ahmed, who had a strong preseason, and undrafted rookie Chris Brooks, who impressed enough in the preseason to make the initial 53-man roster. Grier also said the team plans to table contract talks with defensive tackle Christian Wilkins and quarterback Tua Tagovailoa until the end of the season so that it doesn’t become a distraction. There was never any ill will.” Wilkins hadn’t participated in team drills for the past two weeks amid contract negotiations, but said Tuesday that his focus now is on the regular season.
