Taylor was quietly one of the more interesting line competitions in camp. He can line up inside or outside, and the preseason pass-protection results were encouraging before the injury pause. The immediate mission is simply getting healthy, then turning that versatility into a lasting rotation role.
Strengths: Position flexibility across guard and tackle, developmental pass-protection promise and a diligent practice approach praised by teammates. His ability to cover multiple spots gives the line useful emergency depth.
Weaknesses: He has only one regular-season start and will miss at least the opening four games on injured reserve. The next step is proving that preseason progress holds against regular-season power and speed.
