Jaguars Re-Sign CB Keith Taylor as Offseason DB Decisions Loom

The move preserves special-teams depth ahead of an offseason focused on reworking the cornerback group.

Overview

  • The team announced the Feb. 20 deal to retain Taylor, who entered the offseason as a restricted free agent.
  • Jacksonville added Taylor late last season after Jourdan Lewis went on injured reserve to reinforce cornerback depth.
  • Taylor logged only special-teams work for the Jaguars, including three snaps in the AFC wild-card loss to Buffalo.
  • A 2021 fifth-round pick by Carolina, Taylor has played 47 games with five starts, 970 defensive snaps, 77 tackles, and 529 special-teams snaps in his career.
  • Cornerback remains a priority with Greg Newsome and Montaric Brown set for free agency and Travis Hunter expected to play cornerback full-time, while the club also re-signed DeeJay Dallas and Matt Dickerson earlier in the week.
