3 Colts make list of top 2027 NFL free agents
Three Colts players were ranked among the best available free agents during the 2027 NFL offseason.
ESPN's Matt Bowen is taking an early look ahead to the 2027 offseason and has put together his list of the top free agents from each position group. Included were three members of the Indianapolis Colts. Let's take a closer look at who those players are.
RB Jonathan Taylor Taylor put together yet another highly productive season in 2025. He finished the season with 1,585 rushing yards -- the third-most in football. He also led the league in total touchdowns.
Taylor's success is what sets the ceiling for the Colts ' offense. A strong run game helps open up the passing game. He should be a contract extension candidate for the Colts, which would prevent him from becoming a free agent.
What Bowen had to say: "One of the league's premier runners, Taylor combines power, vision and home run juice to rack up big-time production. " LG Quenton Nelson The 2025 season was another very good one for Nelson as well. Among all guards this season, Nelson ranked fourth in pass-blocking efficiency and fourth in run-blocking grade.
