Taylor caught on with the Packers and returned to Green Bay on two consecutive exclusive rights contracts. However, the Packers waived him coming out of the preseason in 2022.
He caught on with the Jets ahead of the 2023 season and was on and off of the team’s practice squad.
In 2023, Taylor appeared in three games for the Jets and caught two passes for 13 yards.
