Following Jonathan Taylor's Week 16 performance against the Tennessee Titans, the running back was voted the FedEx Ground NFL Player of the Week.
In the Colts' 38-30 win, Taylor rushed for 218 yards on 29 carries (7.5 yards/attempt) and had three touchdowns, including 65- and 70-yard scores. In doing so, Taylor became the only player other than the Philadelphia Eagles' Saquon Barkley to have multiple rushing touchdowns of 65 or more yards in a game this season.
With his performance on Sunday, Taylor registered the third-most rushing yards in a single game in Colts history and is one of two players (Edgerrin James) in franchise history to rush for over 200 yards in a single game. Taylor is also one of three players in team history to have multiple games with at least three rushing touchdowns.
For the 2024-25 NFL regular season, FedEx is once again working with the Thurgood Marshall College Fund (TMCF) to make donations of $2,000 in the name of the winning players ($4,000 total) to Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) across the country.
Over the course of the entire season, select HBCUs will receive grants totaling more than $100,000 to support needs-based scholarships through the 2025-26 school year.
