Indianapolis Colts RB Seth McGowan has emerged as the top running back behind RB Jonathan Taylor, as the team likes his bruising running style and soft hands out of the backfield. If he wants to carve out a consistent role, he needs to improve in pass protection.
Huddle Up: McGowan isn't necessarily someone to grab in most fantasy leagues, although in the very, very deepest of leagues, and for those fantasy managers selecting Taylor early on, you might want McGowan on your roster for insurance.

Indianapolis Colts RB Seth McGowan has growing "optimism" from the coaching staff about his ability to contribute as a rookie.
Huddle Up: The question is whether McGowan can prove himself enough to become the primary backup to Jonathan Taylor. DJ Giddens will also be in the mix for the No. 2 running back job, and whoever wins the gig will be worthy of stashing as a handcuff for Taylor.

Indianapolis Colts RB Jonathan Taylor led the league with 323 carries and was one of 11 running backs to play in all 17 games last season. Head coach Shane Steichen said the team is aware of it and plan to use RBs Seth McGowan and DJ Giddens to supplement Taylor. "I think he led the league last year in carries, but talking to him after the season, he said he felt good," Steichen said. "But yeah, obviously he's a hell of a player. It's hard to take him off the field when he's running so good, but getting Seth (McGowan) in the fold and DJ (Giddens) and see how those guys come along in training camp, and we'll go from there."
Huddle Up: Taylor has 1,551 carries in the NFL and 926 carries in college. He's still just 27 years old and should remain a high-floor RB1. It would be a good idea to handcuff him to McGowan or Giddens, whichever flashes in camp.
