News: 6 days agoTaylor completed one of two passes for minus-1 yard in Saturday's 20-17 preseason win over the Commanders.

Spin: Taylor played the first two drives with the Jets holding out most of their starters, including Aaron Rodgers. The veteran backup didn't do much of note in his Jets debut, but Taylor isn't in any danger of losing the backup role to Jordan Travis (ankle) or Andrew Peasley, the latter of whom threw a touchdown pass on the next drive after Taylor exited the game. Taylor will likely see more extensive action in Saturday's preseason game against the Panthers.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: Taylor signed with the Jets and will operate as Aaron Rodgers' backup. He has made 58 starts and has thrown for 65 touchdowns and 29 interceptions in his career. He's been a backup over the past six seasons, though he showed well in four full games with the Giants last season, producing at least 17 fantasy points three times. Taylor provides the Jets with a reliable backup and he would find himself on the QB2 radar if Rodgers misses time.
