A trip overseas didn't seem to faze Jonathan Taylor in what's been a dominant 2025 season.
The Indianapolis Colts running back had a career outing in Sunday's 31-25 win over the Atlanta Falcons in Berlin, Germany. Taylor, already over 1,000 yards rushing in 2025, scored two massive touchdowns in the win. First came a long fourth-quarter score that gave the Colts a lead, then came an overtime touchdown that won it for the Colts, who improved to an AFC-best 8-2 this season.
For the third time in his career, Taylor posted over 200 yards on the ground — including the longest touchdown run of the 2025 NFL season so far and the score that gave Indianapolis the win.
Here's a look at Jonathan Taylor's huge performance in Indianapolis' Berlin matchup against the Falcons.

Taylor led the NFL in rushing entering Sunday's Week 10 matchup, and chances are, that won't be changing any time soon. The Colts running back has played a significant role in the team's turnaround to become an AFC contender, and he helped put the team on his back again against the Falcons.
For the fifth time this season, Taylor topped 100 rushing yards, and for the third time in his career, he topped 200 rushing yards. The Colts star also held the NFL lead for rushing touchdowns entering Week 10, extending his advantage with 13 in total after another three scores on Sunday.
Taylor's 83-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter gave the Colts the lead in Berlin. It was the longest touchdown run of the 2025 NFL season so far, passing Bijan Robinson's 81-yard scoring run against the Buffalo Bills in October.

Jonathan Taylor 200-yard rushing games
Taylor had his third career game with at least 200 rushing yards on Sunday. His last 200-yard game came in December 2024.
In those three 200-yard games, Taylor has scored a total of eight touchdowns. While the running back didn't quite get to his career-high in Week 10, he came pretty close, with a total of 244 yards on the ground. According to Diana Russini, Taylor joined O.J. Simpson and Corey Dillon as the only players in NFL history with 240-plus rushing yards in multiple games in their career.
Here's a look at Taylor's three career 200-yard rushing games:

Jonathan Taylor 1,000-yard seasons
Already, Taylor has topped 1,000 rushing yards in 2025, doing so in just 10 games. His career-high in rushing for a season was 1,811 in 2021 — a number he should have a solid chance to break this year.
The Colts running back now has four career 1,000-yard rushing seasons in his six years in the NFL. The only seasons he didn't notch 1,000 rushing yards were 2022 and 2023, and he missed at least six games in both of those campaigns.
Here's a look at each of Taylor's 1,000-yard seasons:
| Season | Games | Carries | Rushing Yards | YPC | Rushing TDs |
| 2020 | 15 | 232 | 1,169 | 5.0 | 11 |
| 2021 | 17 | 332 | 1,811 | 5.5 | 18 |

| 2025 | 10 | 189 | 1,139 | 6.0 | 15 |

Most rushing TDs in Colts history
That wasn't the extent of Taylor's historic Week 10 performance. In his sixth season with the team, Taylor set a new Colts franchise record for career rushing touchdowns. His 66 rushing touchdowns are the most by any player in Indianapolis history.
Taylor surpassed Edgerrin James, who held the previous franchise record with 64 rushing touchdowns for the Colts. Taylor broke the record in 19 less games than James.
While Taylor still has some work to do to become Indianapolis' all-time leading rusher, he's well on his way there, claiming a unique honor in team history on Sunday. Here's the leaderboard for career rushing touchdowns across Colts history:
| Rank | Player | Games | Rushing TDs |
| 1 | Jonathan Taylor (2020-present) | 77 | 66 |
| 2 | Edgerrin James (1999-2005) | 96 | 64 |
| 3 | Lenny Moore (1956-67) | 143 | 63 |
| 4 | Tom Matte (1961-72) | 142 | 45 |
| 5 | Marshall Faulk (1994-98) | 77 | 42 |
