Going on IR
The Jets placed Taylor on injured reserve with an undisclosed issue Sunday, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Taylor sustained an injury at an early point in training camp, according to Ethan Greenberg of the team's official site, though it's unclear exactly when or how this issue arose. The 28-year-old wideout appeared in three games while on the practice squad last year, securing two of four targets for 13 yards. Taylor previously looked like he had a solid chance to earn a spot on the final 53-man roster, but he'll now be forced to sit out the entire 2024 campaign unless he's let go from IR with an injury settlement.

Projected to make team
Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic predicts that Taylor will make the Jets' 53-man roster.
ANALYSIS
Taylor's chances of making the team were bolstered by fellow wide receiver Corey Davis' recent decision to step away from football. A former teammate of Aaron Rodgers in Green Bay, the 27-year-old Taylor was a proficient special teams contributor in Green Bay, and he showcased his offensive capabilities with a 57-yard catch on a Zach Wilson deep ball in New York's preseason opener.
