"BERLIN -- Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor created his own bit of history during the NFL's first regular-season game in Germany's capital Sunday. The NFL's leading rusher unleashed a torrent on the Atlanta Falcons, running for 244 yards, setting the franchise touchdown record and scoring a walk-off TD in overtime that allowed the Colts to pull off a 31-25 win."
"Taylor passed Hall of Fame back Edgerrin James for the Colts touchdown record with his 65th career score in the fourth quarter, doing so in spectacular fashion. The Colts attempted to execute an inside run, but the Atlanta defense bottled up Taylor at the line of scrimmage. As he was still on his feet, Taylor sensed an opening to his left and broke the run outside. From there, he turned the corner and did not stop until he crossed the goal line 83 yards later."
Jonathan Taylor rushed for 244 yards and scored an overtime walk-off touchdown to lift the Indianapolis Colts to a 31-25 victory over the Atlanta Falcons in the NFL's first regular-season game in Berlin. Taylor's fourth-quarter, 83-yard touchdown gave him his 65th career score, surpassing Edgerrin James as the Colts' all-time touchdown leader. The play began as a congested inside run, turned outside when Taylor found a lane and raced down the sideline. Taylor acknowledged the historical setting in Berlin and described feeling humbled to share in that sporting lineage. Colts coach Shane Steichen noted Taylor's ability to bounce outside and hit the sideline.
