    The Colts' Jonathan Taylor is one of the NFL's top running backs, currently ranking seventh in the NFL with 261 rushing yards on the young season.

    Taylor is known for his vision and patience as a running back, a skillset pointed out by hostess Kay Adams' Up & Adams show after Adams' interview of Taylor this week.

    An enthusiastic Taylor was asked who he mirrors his patient running style after and the former Wisconsin Badgers star did not hesitate to name another former Big Ten great.

    "Is there a running back you say you try to look at or try to mirror in terms of finding the patience?" Adams asked Taylor on Thursday.

    "Definitely well of course just working with Frank Gore (this offseason)," Taylor started off saying. "I'm definitely a Le'Veon Bell guy, just, understanding that he always understood the scheme and the defensive front that he was running against which allowed him to be able to generate a lot of yards when it seems like it should have been a tackle for loss or a negaitve run," Taylor continued.

    "So I feel like those are two guys that I kind of (tended) to watch, um of course I've always watched Arian Foster and Adrian Peterson, but as far as the patience, for sure, Le'Veon Bell," Taylor said about the former Steelers great.
