News

  • Sticking around in San Francisco

    The 49ers signed Taylor to the practice squad Tuesday, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Analysis: Taylor was waived by the 49ers on Friday to make room on the 53-man roster for the return of Christian McCaffrey from injured reserve. After clearing waivers, Taylor has opted to stay with the 49ers on the practice squad and will be available for a game day elevation in case San Francisco needs depth at running back. Taylor mostly played on special teams in eight regular-season games before the 49ers' Week 9 bye, but he managed to post seven carries for 25 yards and added one catch for 12 yards…read more

  • Dropped by San Francisco

    The 49ers waived Taylor on Friday, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: With Christian McCaffrey (Achilles) expected to return for San Francisco's Week 10 matchup against the Buccaneers, Taylor has been dropped from the active roster. The Memphis product appeared in eight games this season, logging seven carries for 25 yards and one reception for 12 yards across 95 total snaps (18 offensive and 77 on special teams). Taylor could find his way back onto the 49ers' practice squad if he clears waivers.

  • Extra work Thursday

    Taylor rushed five times for 16 yards and caught his lone target for 12 yards in Thursday's 36-24 win over Seattle.

    Analysis: Starter Jordan Mason (shoulder) missed chunks of Thursday's victory due to injury, opening the door for Isaac Guerendo (10-99-0) and Taylor to split snaps in the interim. The 49ers' fourth-round rookie had the standout performance in the starter's absence, while Taylor produced just 3.2 yards per tote in his first action on offense this season. The 26-year-old Taylor could maintain a small role in San Francisco's Week 7 game plan if Mason is forced to sit against Kansas City due to the AC joint…read more

  • Only sees one snap Monday

    Taylor logged one snap on special teams in Monday's 32-19 win over the Jets.

    Analysis: The backup running back was barely used in a contest that did not feature starter Christian McCaffrey (calf/Achilles). Taylor currently sits behind Jordan Mason (58 snaps) and Isaac Guerendo (13 snaps) in terms of pecking order behind McCaffrey on the 49ers' depth chart.

  • Finds home in San Fran

    Taylor and the 49ers agreed to terms on a one-year contract Wednesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Taylor spent the last four seasons in Green Bay, suiting up for 34 regular-season games from 2021 through 2023. During that time, he largely contributed on special teams before taking on an increased depth role on offense in 2023, when he rushed a career-high 32 times for 141 yards in 11 appearances. Heading into his first training camp with San Francisco, Taylor will compete for a depth role behind Christian McCaffrey and Elijah Mitchell.

  • Finishes fourth on depth chart

    Taylor had 32 carries for 141 yards and 11 receptions for 49 yards over 11 regular-season games in 2023.

    Analysis: Taylor easily had his most productive campaign as a professional, as he set career highs nearly across the board and ran for a respectable 4.4 YPC. He's been a trusted back for the Packers since 2021, but he spent the early portion of the season on the practice squad and was even waived before being brought back in late November. There's a chance he could return to Green Bay for a fourth go-around, but he ended the season fourth on the depth chart, so it would not be surprising if the Packers…read more

  • Relegated to third string

    Wilson had three carries for six yards in Sunday's 48-32 victory over the Cowboys.

    Analysis: Backfield mate AJ Dillon (thumb/neck) did not suit up Sunday, but it was Emanuel Wilson rather than Taylor who worked as the backup behind starter Aaron Jones. It looks like Wilson will be next in line for touches if Dillon misses another game, but Green Bay could turn to Taylor more frequently against the 49ers, as he has earned more trust than his counterpart in pass protection.

  • Takes eight carries late

    Taylor had eight carries for 30 yards in Sunday's 33-10 victory over the Vikings.

    Analysis: The 30 yards tied a season high for Taylor, who finished second among Packers running backs in snaps, yardage and carries. All of his totes came in the fourth quarter, though, after fellow running back AJ Dillon left with a stinger and the game had essentially been decided. Taylor remains third on the backfield depth chart, but he could see an elevated workload again behind Aaron Jones if Dillon is unable to play in Week 18 against the Bears.

  • Four touches in Week 16

    Taylor had three carries for four yards and one reception for minus-1 yard in Sunday's 33-30 victory over the Panthers.

    Analysis: Taylor tallied multiple touches for the fourth time in five games, but with both Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon suiting up in the same game for the first time since Week 11, he was relegated to the third spot on the depth chart. If both of his fellow running backs are able to go again in Week 17, expect Taylor to wind up in a similar role.

  • Limited impact in loss

    Taylor had one carry for six yards and two receptions for minus-4 yards in Sunday's 34-20 loss to the Buccaneers.

    Analysis: With AJ Dillon (thumb) sidelined, Taylor worked as the backup behind Aaron Jones, and he played 26 snaps compared to the 29 that Jones received. However, Taylor only tallied three touches while Jones finished with 17. The Packers used a similar distribution in recent weeks when Jones was sidelined and Dillon wasn't, so there is little reason to expect much from Taylor -- he has not recorded more than six touches in a game this season -- unless both of his fellow running backs are unavailable.

  • Efficient with six touches Monday

    Taylor rushed four times for 30 yards and brought in both targets for 22 yards in the Packers' 24-22 loss to the Giants on Monday night.

    Analysis: The reserve back once again served as the No. 2 option in the Packers backfield with Aaron Jones (knee) sidelined, and Taylor continued to impress with limited touches. Taylor generated the bulk of his production on two plays, recording a 14-yard run and a 16-yard catch. The third-year back once again could serve as AJ Dillon's backup Week 15 versus the Buccaneers depending on Jones' status, and with Dillon struggling with efficiency on a near every-week basis, Taylor could potentially earn…read more

  • Breaks long run in win

    Taylor had two carries for 29 yards in Sunday's 27-19 victory over Kansas City.

    Analysis: Taylor worked as the backup running back for a second straight week with Aaron Jones (knee) out again, but the Packers opted to lean on AJ Dillon, who out-snapped Taylor 39 to 20 and recorded 19 touches to Taylor's two. It's not yet known if Jones will return for Week 14, but even if he remains sidelined, it's unlikely Taylor's role will change much.

  • Works as backup in win

    Taylor had three carries for 11 yards and one reception for four yards in Thursday's 29-22 victory over the Lions.

    Analysis: With top running back Aaron Jones (knee) out for Week 12, Taylor operated as the backup behind AJ Dillon. Taylor and Dillon nearly split the snaps down the middle, but Dillon dominated the touches, recording 17 of them to Taylor's four. Taylor -- sandwiched around a stint on New England's practice squad -- has made five appearances for the Packers this season, but he hasn't accumulated more than 29 yards from scrimmage in any of them. It's unclear if Jones will miss more time, but even if he…read more

  • Heads back to Green Bay

    The Packers signed Taylor off the Patriots' practice squad Monday.

    Analysis: With Aaron Jones injured earlier in the season, Taylor appeared in four games for Green Bay, recording an 11-31-0 rushing line and 5-28-0 receiving on 10 targets. He then landed in New England after the Packers exhausted Taylor's elevations to the 53-man roster. With Jones (knee) hurt again and rookie Emanuel Wilson (shoulder) sidelined as well, Taylor is back to complement AJ Dillon.

  • Joins Pats' practice squad

    New England signed Taylor to its practice squad Wednesday, Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald reports.

    Analysis: A little over a week after being cut by Green Bay, Taylor has now found a new opportunity to make an impression with the Patriots. Over four games with the Packers this season, Taylor took 11 carries for 31 yards and caught five of 10 targets for 28 yards.

  • Waived by Green Bay

    The Packers waived Taylor on Tuesday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Taylor appeared in four of the Packers' opening five games as a practice-squad call-up but was officially signed to the 53-man roster ahead of Monday night's loss to the Raiders. He's carried 11 times for 31 yards on limited chances behind Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon. Taylor is a candidate to return to Green Bay's practice squad should he clear waivers.

  • Works as clear backup

    Taylor had two carries for two yards and caught two of five targets for five yards in Monday's 17-13 loss to the Raiders.

    Analysis: With Aaron Jones (hamstring) unavailable, Taylor worked as Green Bay's No. 2 running back behind AJ Dillon. He played just over a third of the snaps -- far more than fellow reserve Emanuel Wilson -- but with Dillon having his best game of the season, Taylor was only minimally involved. The third-year back was signed to the 53-man roster Monday as the Packers had already exhausted all his practice-squad elevations for the year.

  • Will work behind AJ Dillon on MNF

    Taylor has been brought up to the Packers' active roster ahead of Monday night's game against the Raiders, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

    Analysis: Aaron Jones (hamstring) is inactive for the contest, leaving AJ Dillon as Green Bay's starter in the backfield. Taylor is likely to handle the bulk of work on the ground behind Dillon, with Emanuel Wilson working as the No. 3 back. This is the fourth time Taylor will be active on the campaign. Through three contests, he's recorded 29 rushing yards on nine carries and has caught three of five targets for 23 yards through the air.

  • Officially joins roster

    Taylor was signed to Green Bay's 53-man roster Monday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Taylor needed to be signed to the active roster to play Monday against the Raiders since he had already been elevated from the practice squad three times. With Aaron Jones (hamstring) slated to sit out, Taylor should see the bulk of the snaps behind AJ Dillon and ahead of Emanuel Wilson, putting him firmly in play for single-game DFS contests as a punt option.

  • Returns to practice squad

    Taylor reverted to the Packers' practice squad Monday.

    Analysis: Taylor was elevated for the third contest in a row Sunday, turning three carries into six yards while reeling in three passes for 23 yards in the Packers' 18-17 win over the Saints. The running back logged 29 offensive snaps while operating as the team's primary backup behind AJ Dillon in Green Bay's backfield with Aaron Jones (hamstring) unavailable. If Jones can't play Thursday night versus Detroit, the Packers may have to officially sign Taylor to the 53-man roster since he's already been…read more

  • Plays key role in Week 3

    Taylor had three carries for six yards and three receptions for 23 yards in Sunday's 18-17 victory over the Saints.

    Analysis: Taylor did not produce big numbers, but his 29 offensive snaps were roughly five times as many as Emanuel Wilson's six and just a handful fewer than the 37 that AJ Dillon saw as Green Bay's starting running back. The front office could have some tough decisions to make soon, as having already been elevated from the practice squad three times, Taylor can no longer suit up without being added to the 53-man roster -- and he could be needed again in Week 4 if top running back Aaron Jones…read more

  • Elevated from practice squad

    The Packers elevated Taylor to their active roster Saturday ahead of Sunday's game against the Saints.

    Analysis: Since this is the third time that the Packers have called up Taylor from the practice squad, they will have to sign him to their roster if they wish to continue fielding him for the rest of the season. Taylor split snaps with Emanuel Wilson behind AJ Dillon in their 25-24 loss to the Falcons in Week 2. Taylor has registered six carries for 23 yards in two contests this season.

  • Back to practice squad

    Taylor reverted to the Packers' practice squad Monday.

    Analysis: Taylor was elevated for the second straight week from Green Bay's practice squad, garnering one carry for one yard while operating as the primary backup to AJ Dillon in the Packers' 25-24 loss to Atlanta. If Aaron Jones (hamstring) can't go again in Week 3 versus New Orleans, it's possible Taylor gets elevated again.

  • Shares backup duties in Week 2

    Taylor had one carry for one yard in Sunday's 25-24 loss to the Falcons.

    Analysis: Taylor and Emanuel Wilson split the snaps behind AJ Dillon with Aaron Jones (hamstring) sidelined, but neither backup did anything of note. In fact, Taylor was more productive in Week 1 against the Bears when Jones was in the lineup. Unless Dillon goes down too, Taylor remains off the fantasy radar in most formats.

    The Packers elevated Taylor to the active roster Saturday.

    Analysis: Taylor has now been promoted to the active roster in consecutive weeks to kick off the year. He tallied five carries for 22 yards in the team's 38-20 season-opening victory over the Bears as the No. 3 back. If Aaron Jones (hamstring) does not get the green light, Taylor could again see some work in the backfield behind AJ Dillon and Emanuel Wilson.

    Analysis: Taylor was elevated to the active roster to operate as the Packers' third running back in their 38-20 win over the Bears in Week 1, recording five carries for 22 yards while playing seven offensive snaps. If Aaron Jones (hamstring) is unable to play Sunday in Atlanta, it's possible that Taylor is elevated from the practice squad for a second straight week.

    Taylor had five carries for 22 yards in Sunday's 38-20 victory over the Bears.

    Analysis: Taylor was beaten out for a spot on Green Bay's 53-man roster by fellow running back Emanuel Wilson, but it appears that had more to do with keeping Wilson off waivers, as Taylor worked as Green Bay's third running back in Week 1 after being elevated from the practice squad. He did not get a carry until the game was well in hand, but he was effective with his opportunities. Starting running back Aaron Jones shined in Sunday's game but injured his hamstring, and Jones' backup, AJ Dillon,…read more

  • Elevated from practice squad

    The Packers have elevated Taylor to their active roster ahead of Sunday's season-opening game in Chicago.

    Analysis: Taylor's elevation from the practice squad ahead of Week 1 action means that he will be an option to back up Aaron Jones, AJ Dillon and Emanuel Wilson at running back. While his most likely path to contribution will be via special teams, he could see a few plays in the backfield at any point.

  • Back with practice squad

    Taylor was picked up by the Packers' practice squad Wednesday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Taylor was competing for the No. 3 running back role on Green Bay's depth chart during training camp, but the team ended up going with Emanuel Wilson behind staples Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon. The 25-year-old has bounced back and forth between the Packers' practice squad and active roster the previous two seasons and it is looking like deja vu heading into his third season.

  • Let go by Green Bay

    The Packers waived Taylor on Tuesday, Wes Hodkiewicz of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: Taylor was the third running back to enter Saturday's preseason finale against the Seahawks and ultimately lost out on the No. 3 running back spot to rookie UDFA Emanuel Wilson. Taylor had limited opportunities in 2022, tallying just 10 carries for 31 yards in 14 games while operating behind Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon. He'll look to land elsewhere -- likely on a practice squad -- once he clears waivers.

  • Effective in final exhibition

    Taylor had six carries for 24 yards and one reception for eight yards in Saturday's 19-15 preseason victory over the Seahawks.

    Analysis: Taylor was the third Packers running back to enter Saturday's contest, so it's possible he has fallen behind fellow running back Emanuel Wilson on the depth chart. However, Green Bay may have simply wanted to give Wilson some work with the first team. The two are the frontrunners to be Green Bay's No. 3 running back, though neither is guaranteed a roster spot, as the Packers broke camp with only two active running backs in 2022.

  • Scores in second preseason game

    Taylor had four carries for 12 yards and a touchdown and one reception for five yards in Saturday's 21-17 preseason loss to the Patriots.

    Analysis: Taylor was not particularly busy in Saturday's contest, but that's because the Packers have a pretty good feel for what they have in him in his fourth season with the team. He remains the frontrunner for the third running back spot on the depth chart.

  • Tallies 11 touches in opener

    Taylor had six carries for 19 yards and five receptions for eight yards in Friday's 36-19 preseason victory over the Bengals.

    Analysis: Taylor entered Friday's contest third on the depth chart at the running back position, and with Aaron Jones sitting out, Taylor was the second running back into the game behind AJ Dillon. Taylor was busy, racking up 11 touches and -- per Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com -- spending eight more snaps on the field than any other Packers running back. Taylor did not do anything spectacular and was outshined by rookie reserve Emanuel Wilson, so his grasp on the third spot may not be as secure as it was.…read more

  • Takes 10 carries in 2022

    Taylor had 10 carries for 31 yards and one reception for 17 yards over 14 games in the 2022 season.

    Analysis: Despite not making the cut out of training camp and being waived by the Packers in early November, Taylor still found himself on the roster 14 times in his third season as a professional. With Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon again primed to lead the Packers backfield in 2023, Taylor's opportunities will remain limited if he stays with Green Bay.

  • Plays five Week 16 snaps

    Taylor caught his only target for 17 yards in Sunday's 26-20 victory over the Dolphins.

    Analysis: Taylor made a key play on the Packers' touchdown drive right after halftime that tied the contest at 20-20, but he wound up totaling only five snaps even with fellow running back Aaron Jones playing through an ankle injury. Unless Jones is unable to go, expect Taylor to play a bit role again in Week 17 against the Vikings.

  • Takes season-high four carries

    Taylor had four carries for 15 yards in Monday's 24-12 victory over the Rams.

    Analysis: Taylor was signed to the active roster just hours before Monday's contest, and he opened the night as the third running back behind Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon. However, Dillon left the game with a head injury and the Packers did not want to lean solely on Jones, so Taylor picked up four carries on the final drive of the evening. Taylor could operate as the backup in Week 16 if Dillon in unable to go, but in that scenario, Jones would likely handle the bulk of the work in the backfield.

    The Packers signed Taylor from the practice squad to the active roster Monday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Taylor previously was on the active roster and made seven appearances before being waived at the end of November. He rejoined the team via a practice-squad deal and was elevated for three consecutive contests (Weeks 11-13). However, across his 10 total appearances, the running back has rushed just once for six yards across seven offensive snaps. He figures to garner a similar role as long as Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon are healthy. To make room for Taylor on the active roster, Green Bay waived…read more

    Taylor reverted to the Packers' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

    Analysis: Taylor saw his first carry of the season and took it for six yards in Sunday's win over the Bears. With Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon as the only running backs on the team's 53-man roster, it's likely Taylor will find himself on the field again in Week 15 against the Rams, as the Packers are on bye Week 14.

  • Takes first carry this season

    Taylor had one carry for six yards in Sunday's 28-19 victory over the Bears.

    Analysis: Fellow running back Aaron Jones briefly left Sunday's contest with a shin injury, which allowed Taylor to both log a season-high six snaps and run the ball for the first time all season. Jones returned to the contest and presumably will be good to go following the Packers' Week 14 bye, so Taylor remains a distant third option in the backfield for the time being.

  • Elevated to active roster

    Taylor has been promoted to the Packers' active roster ahead of Sunday's game against the Bears, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.

    Analysis: With Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon both healthy, Taylor's role in Sunday's contest will presumably just be as a special-teams contributor. It will be his 10th game on the active roster this season.

  • Returns to practice squad

    Taylor reverted to the Packers' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

    Analysis: Taylor suited up for his ninth game with the Packers on Sunday. Although he failed to see a snap on offense, he did play 10 special-teams snaps against the Eagles. With Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon as the only running backs on the active roster, it's likely Taylor will find himself suiting up with the team again in Week 13 against the Bears.

  • Elevated from practice squad

    Taylor has been elevated by Green Bay from the practice squad to the active roster ahead of Sunday's road contest against Philadelphia.

    Analysis: This will be the ninth week this season during which Taylor has been active for the Packers, as he's been signed and waived from the active roster twice but has rejoined the practice squad each time. Taylor hasn't been able to see the field much behind Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon, as he's logged only one offensive snap thus far. Meanwhile, the third-year back has racked up 78 special-teams snaps, and that's likely the primary role he'll play again Week 12.

    The Packers signed Taylor to their practice squad Friday.

    Analysis: Taylor has bounced on and off the Packers' active roster throughout the season. He was most recently waived Wednesday, though it didn't take long for him to rejoin the team. He has played in eight games on the campaign, with 78 of his 79 snaps coming on special teams.

    Green Bay cut Taylor on Wednesday.

    Analysis: Taylor was signed to the active roster Nov. 15 ahead of the Packers' Thursday night loss to Tennessee, but he was limited to a special-teams role in that contest. The 24-year-old has been active for eight of Green Bay's 11 games this season, but he's seen only one offensive snap and no touches. Taylor could return to the Packers' practice squad if he goes unclaimed off waivers.

    Taylor was signed to the Packers' active roster from their practice squad Tuesday.

    Analysis: Taylor's addition to the active roster comes as the team waived Kylin Hill on Tuesday. The 24-year-old has already appeared in seven games for the Packers this season, but has only seen one snap on offense. With Aaron Jones (shin) questionable for Thursday's game with the Titans, Taylor could be in for a considerable workload, if Jones were to sit.

    Analysis: Taylor was waived by the Packers from their 53-man roster on Tuesday, but he's now back with the franchise as a member of their practice squad. The 24-year-old has played in seven games for the team this season, making his contributions on special teams. He'll now work to find his way back to the active roster.

    The Packers waived Taylor on Tuesday.

    Analysis: After not suiting up for the season opener, Taylor appeared in seven straight games but played primarily on special teams. Him being cut suggests Kylin Hill will be activated from IR ahead of Week 9 to operate as the No. 3 running back behind Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon. If Taylor clears waivers, Green Bay will likely re-sign him to a practice-squad deal.

    Green Bay signed Taylor from its practice squad to its active roster Saturday.

    Analysis: Taylor was elevated ahead of Week 2 versus Chicago and played only eight snaps on special teams, but the Packers evidently saw enough from him to give him a promotion ahead of Sunday's game at Tampa Bay. He will likely continue to contribute exclusively on special teams as long as Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon remain healthy.

    Taylor reverted to the Packers' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction report.

    Analysis: Taylor got the call to be the Packers' No. 3 running back Sunday against the Bears with Kylin Hill (knee) still on the PUP list. However, he never saw the field on offense and only contributed on eight special-teams snaps. With Hill out for at least two more weeks, Taylor will look to earn another chance with the active roster Sunday against the Buccaneers.

    The Packers elevated Taylor from their practice squad Saturday to the active roster for Sunday's contest against the Bears.

    Analysis: With Kylin Hill (knee) sidelined, Taylor and Tyler Goodson competed during training camp for the No. 3 spot behind Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon. However, the Packers opted to keep only two running backs on the initial 53-man roster, leaving Taylor and Goodson to sign practice-squad deals. Neither practice-squad player was elevated for Green Bay's season-opening loss, but Taylor will get the first look as the No. 3 RB in Week 2.

    Analysis: Taylor appeared in nine games for Green Bay last year, but the Packers will role with Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon as their only two healthy running backs ahead of the regular season. Over three preseason games, Taylor rushed 18 times for 71 yards while tallying three receptions for 17 yards.

  • Tallies 10 touches Thursday

    Taylor had seven carries for 34 yards and three receptions for 17 yards in Thursday's exhibition game against the Chiefs.

    Analysis: Taylor worked behind Tyler Goodson in Thursday's contest, but he still finished with just two fewer touches than his counterpart. Goodson -- an undrafted rookie -- has made a strong run for a roster spot, and if he snags one it will almost certainly come at Taylor's expense. However, Taylor has been with Green Bay since 2020, so he has the edge in the experience department.

    Taylor carried the ball eight times for 27 yards in Friday's 20-10 preseason win over the Saints.

    Analysis: Taylor got the start with Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon both sitting. He didn't do much with his performance, as he averaged only 3.4 yards per carry and his longest rush went for only five yards. Taylor is in competition with Tyler Goodson to serve as the team's third running back so long as Kylin Hill (knee) remains on the PUP list.

  • Takes it easy in preseason opener

    Taylor had three carries for 10 yards in Friday's preseason opener against the 49ers. He was also targeted twice but did not catch a pass.

    Analysis: Taylor played only 19 snaps Friday, and that may have been at least partly because he missed practice time earlier in camp with an injury. He did not have a rough night, but he was also the only player among the four Packers running backs who took the field that did not make a big play. With Kylin Hill (knee) on the PUP list, Taylor is the favorite to open the season as the Packers' third running back, but he is by no means a lock to do so.

With Kylin Hill (knee) expected to start the 2022 season on the PUP list, the undrafted running back out of Memphis is the favorite to win the backup role behind AJ Dillon and Aaron Jones, though he'll have to prove he's healthy during the Packers' upcoming preseason contests.

    Analysis: Just as soon as Taylor returned to practice after being activated from the PUP list a week ago, he's again away from practice. There's still competition for Green Bay's third running back spot, but until either Taylor or Kylin Hill return to camp, that competition will be between Tyler Goodson and B.J. Baylor.

    Green Bay activated Taylor off the PUP list Wednesday, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

    Analysis: It's still unclear why Taylor was placed on the PUP list to begin with, but his term there lasted less than a week. He'll continue to compete for the Packers' third running back spot, and his toughest competition for that role, Kylin Hill, is still on the PUP list himself.

    Analysis: The same applies to fellow running back Kylin Hill, who is bouncing back from a torn ACL that he suffered last October. Both players can come off the PUP list at any time during training camp, and once they do, the duo will slot in behind Green Bay's top backfield options Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon.

    Analysis: Hill, a seventh-round pick in 2021, was dynamic last preseason but ultimately sidelined for his entire rookie season after suffering an ACL injury, which vaulted Taylor into the No. 3 spot on the depth chart. However, Taylor saw touches in just four games, totaling 23 carries for 89 yards and one score. If Hill isn't ready to return by Week 1, Taylor figures to open next season in the same spot he finished 2021.

    Taylor ran 11 times for 53 yards and a touchdown and caught two passes for three yards in Sunday's 37-30 loss to the Lions.

    Analysis: Taylor and AJ Dillon shared the backfield duties with Aaron Jones (knee) sidelined, and the former set career highs in carries and rushing yards while tallying both the first receptions and touchdown of his career. Jones should return for the Packers' playoff opener in two weeks, which presumably will put Taylor back in a bit role.

  • Takes career-high six carries

    Taylor had six carries for 18 yards in Sunday's 37-10 victory over the Vikings.

    Analysis: Taylor did not take a carry until halfway through the fourth quarter of Sunday's contest, but the six he recorded from there on out were the most he's tallied as a professional. He could top that number Week 18 should the Packers elect to limit top running backs Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon -- or hold them out altogether with the NFC's top seed in hand.

    Taylor did not play a snap on offense in Sunday's 36-28 victory over the Rams.

    Analysis: Taylor suited up Sunday for the fourth game in a row, but with Aaron Jones returning to action after missing one game and part of the previous one with a knee injury, Taylor was not involved in the game plan. With Jones getting an extra week to recover thanks to the Packers' Week 13 bye and AJ Dillon also handling a heavy workload, expect Taylor to again be limited to special teams work -- at best -- when the Packers return to action in Week 14.

While Taylor set new career bests in both carries and rushing yards, he was only on the field for 15 snaps, and his four touches paled in comparison to Dillon's 17.

  • May not handle backup role Week 11

    Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said Wednesday that Taylor will need to be ready for the No. 2 running back role while Aaron Jones (knee) is unavailable, but the coach also suggested the Packers may look at other options for backup duties behind fill-in starter AJ Dillon, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

    Analysis: With Jones expected to miss only a week or two, LaFleur likely is referring to a potential practice squad promotion to challenge Taylor, rather than bringing in a free agent from outside the organization. The Packers have Ryquell Armstead and Kerrith Whyte on their practice squad, while Taylor has been active as the No. 3 back ever since Kylin Hill suffered an ACL tear Week 8.

He has been with the Packers since signing with the team as an undrafted free agent in April of 2020, and that could help him sew up a spot on the team's practice squad.

  • Remains fourth on depth chart

    Taylor had eight carries for 48 yards and one reception for seven yards in Saturday's preseason game against the Texans. He also lost a fumble in the contest.

    Analysis: Taylor was efficient when he touched the ball, but the fumble certainly didn't help his chances of securing a roster spot, and the running back directly ahead of him on the depth chart -- Kylin Hill -- likely locked himself into the No. 3 spot on the depth chart in Saturday's game. With the Packers likely keeping only three running backs, Taylor is on the outside looking in with one preseason game to go.
