INDIANAPOLIS — The Indianapolis Colts will be represented by seven players in the 2022 Pro Bowl.
The NFL announced that defensive tackle DeForest Buckner, center Ryan Kelly, linebacker Darius Leonard, cornerback Kenny Moore II, guard Quenton Nelson, long snapper Luke Rhodes and running back Jonathan Taylor have been named to the 2022 Pro Bowl.
No other team had more than six players named to the lineup this year.
It's the most players the team has sent to the Pro Bowl since 2014.
Taylor's season keeps getting better. He was announced as one of the first five players named to the 2022 Pro Bowl.
Taylor led all NFL players in fan voting.
Taylor is the first Colts running back to be named to the Pro Bowl since Joseph Addai in 2007.
He has started all 14 games this season and has 1,854 yards and 19 touchdowns. Taylor has also racked-up eight 100-yard rushing games.
To put his season into perspective, Locked On Colts podcast host Evan Sidery looked at two of the top rushing performances over the last decade, in Derrick Henry's 2020 campaign and Adrian Peterson's 2012 campaign, and showed just how impressive Taylor has been through 14 games thus far. Henry had 1,679 yards and 15 touchdowns, and Peterson had 1,812 yards and 11 touchdowns.
Taylor has scored a rushing touchdown in 11 straight games, which is tied for fourth-longest in NFL history.
Taylor is also now moving up the ranks of NFL MVP talks.
