2023 Fantasy Outlook
With starting signal-caller Daniel Jones coming off a neck injury and a pair of disappointing campaigns last year, Taylor opened 2022 with a chance to helm the Giants offense at some point along the way. Instead, Jones maintained good health and thrived in new coach Brian Daboll's offense, while Taylor was limited to just 31 regular-season snaps. There's little to glean from the backup QB's numbers, as nearly all of his production came in mop-up duty at the end of a Week 14 blowout loss to the Eagles. Jones received a four-year, $160 million contract this offseason, and Taylor is signed as his backup for one more year. It'll take an injury to Jones for Taylor to see meaningful action in 2023.

Expected to join Jets
Taylor has agreed on terms on a two-year, $18 million deal with the Jets, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Taylor is staying in New York but will sport a different jersey. The journeyman signal-caller accumulated 1,399 yards and six touchdowns through the air across 14 games (five starts) during his two-year stint with the Giants. With 58 career starts under his belt, he's a safe veteran choice to back up Aaron Rodgers (Achilles), as the Jets were determined to improve in that department following the 2023 season.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Indy viewed as possible landing spot
Nate Atkins of The Indianapolis Star believes the Colts should target Taylor to replace Gardner Minshew as Anthony Richardson's backup in 2024.
ANALYSIS
Minshew nearly led the Colts to the playoffs after Richardson underwent season-ending shoulder injury, and Minshew's strong play has likely priced him out of the Colts' plans in free agency. Taylor should be more affordable, and having a mobile backup would allow the Colts to run a similar playbook should Richardson get injured again.

Taylor opened last season as the Texans' starter but ended up playing in only six games as the result of a Week 2 hamstring injury and Houston's decision to hand the offense to Davis Mills late in the year. When he did take the field, Taylor completed a modest 60.7 percent of his passes and threw an equal number of interceptions and touchdowns (five apiece). He was more impressive as a runner, logging 151 yards and three touchdowns on 19 carries. Taylor signed with the Giants in the offseason and is expected to be the primary backup to Daniel Jones. Jones has yet to get through an NFL season without missing time due to injury, so there's a fair chance Taylor will be pressed into action at some point during the campaign.
