Indianapolis Colts star running back Jonathan Taylor likely will have thumb surgery this week and is expected to miss at least two weeks, sources confirmed to ESPN.
A source told ESPN's Dan Graziano that the Colts hope Taylor will return in two to three weeks. Sources told ESPN earlier Tuesday that the Colts were evaluating the injury and that no determination has been made yet as to whether Taylor could be placed on injured reserve.
Taylor rushed for 91 yards and two touchdowns Sunday in the Colts' victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and played the entire game.
He closed out the win with an 8-yard run with 1:24 remaining that gave the Colts a first down and allowed Indianapolis to run out the clock.
