Stands out on defense Week 3
Taylor tallied five tackles (all solo), including one sack, and notched five pass defenses Sunday in a Week 3 loss to the Packers.
Analysis: Taylor picked up his first NFL sack in the second quarter, taking down Jordan Love on a third-down play for a 14-yard loss. His most impressive feat, however, was his racking up five pass defenses throughout the contest, and he now leads the league in that category with seven on the campaign. Taylor has also posted 14 tackles through three games, with four of them going for a loss.

Role likely solidified
Taylor will likely operate as the team's slot corner this season, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.
Analysis: Taylor was believed to be in competition with Bradley Roby for the role, but with Roby's announced release Tuesday, it appears the Tennessee product won the job. Taylor appeared in 13 contests for New Orleans in his rookie season after being selected in the second round of the 2022 Draft, and compiled 46 combined tackles and 11 passes defended.

Trending up in preseason
Taylor's stock is trending up following the Saints' 26-24 preseason win over the Chiefs on Sunday, according to Jeff Duncan of NOLA.com.
Analysis: Taylor recorded two tackles in Sunday's contest, but his biggest impact came when he deflected a pass near the end of the first half, resulting in an interception for safety Ugo Amadi. The second-year cornerback still didn't have the cleanest game, however, as he was also beaten in coverage by Chiefs' wideout Richie James for a 43-yard completion earlier in the second quarter. Taylor figures to continue competing with longtime veteran Bradley Roby for the third cornerback spot behind Marshon…read more

Participating in team drills
Taylor (hamstring) has returned to team drills at practice, Todd Graffagnini of the Saints' official website reports.
Analysis: Taylor was nursing a hamstring issue at the start of camp, but it appears he has put that issue behind him. The second-year cornerback tallied 46 tackles (37 solo) and 11 passes defensed across 13 games (nine starts) during his rookie campaign in 2022.

Leaves practice
Taylor (hamstring) left camp after suffering a hamstring injury Wednesday, Jeff Duncan of NOLA.com reports.
Analysis: The Saints' second-year cornerback will miss some time after coming up with a hamstring injury during camp, but the injury isn't too serious according to head coach Dennis Allen. Last season, Taylor had a great rookie campaign for New Orleans, tallying 11 pass breakups and 46 tackles in his nine starts. Expect him to immediately slot back into the starting defense once he's healthy.

Logging slot snaps
Taylor is taking snaps in the slot during mandatory minicamp this week, John DeShazier of the Saints' official site reports.
Analysis: Taylor stepped into a significant starting role during his rookie season last year while Marshon Lattimore tended to an abdomen injury. However, with Lattimore now healthy, Taylor is working to lock down a role as the team's third cornerback. The Tennessee product recorded 46 tackles and 11 passes defended in 2022.

Answers the bell in 2022
Taylor recorded 46 tackles (39 solo) and 11 passes defended over 13 games in the 2022 season.
Analysis: Taylor served as a core special-teamer over the first two weeks of the season before landing on IR with a knee injury for the following four games. Once he returned ahead of Week 7, the rookie second-rounder had to immediately step into a starting role with top cornerback Marshon Lattimore sidelined for 10 games by an abdomen injury. As a result, Taylor played at least 85 percent of defensive snaps in all but two of the final 11 games. Taylor also paced the team's banged-up secondary in passes…read more

Restored to active roster
The Saints activated Taylor (knee) from injured reserve ahead of Thursday's game against the Cardinals.
Analysis: Taylor was designated to return to practice Tuesday after sitting out the last four weeks on New Orleans' IR with a knee injury. Now, the second-round rookie will be available to play at the earliest possible opportunity. Taylor defended one pass while seeing the first defensive snaps of his career in Week 2 against Tampa Bay, and he could see a prominent reserve role with starting cornerbacks Marshon Lattimore (abdomen) out and Paulson Adebo (knee) questionable for Thursday's contest versus…read more

Returns to practice
Taylor (knee) was designated to return from IR on Tuesday, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.
Analysis: Taylor has missed the minimum four weeks since going on injured reserve Sept. 24. The rookie now has a three-week window to practice with the team before needing to be placed on the 53-man roster again. Considering the Saints play on Thursday against the Cardinals, it is unlikely he'll play, but he could return in Week 8 against the Raiders.

Heads to IR with knee injury
New Orleans placed Taylor (knee) on its injured reserve list Saturday.
Analysis: It's unclear when Taylor picked up the injury or how serious it is, pending further updates from the team. Regardless, the rookie cornerback will now have to miss at least the next four game weeks as he recovers. In the meantime, Marshon Lattimore and Bradley Roby will continue to shoulder the majority of the load at corner until Paulson Adebo (ankle) is ready to return to action.

Out for Week 3
Taylor (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Panthers, Luke Johnson of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Analysis: Taylor popped up on the injury report Thursday as a limited participant and didn't practice Friday. The rookie third-round pick has played mostly on special teams, but he did play 18 defensive snaps in Week 2 after not seeing any during his NFL debut. His next chance to suit up will come in Week 4 against the Vikings.

Active against the Buccaneers
Taylor (hip) is listed as active for Sunday's matchup against Tampa Bay, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.
Analysis: Taylor played 28 special-teams snaps during his NFL debut last week. The rookie second-round pick will look to play a depth role for the Saints as Marshon Lattimore remains the team's No. 1 cornerback.

Listed as questionable
Taylor (hip) is listed as questionable for Sunday's contest against the Buccaneers, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Taylor has been limited at practice all week but still has a chance to suit up Sunday. The rookie second-round pick played exclusively on special teams during the season opener, so his potential absence wouldn't impact New Orleans defense.
