2025 Fantasy Outlook
Taylor looked competent in pass protection in 2024 but struggled notably as a run blocker, but he's been at best an average option at right tackle since inking a four-year, $80 million deal in March of 2023. The signing of Jaylon Moore in free agency and addition of Josh Simmons in the first round of the 2025 draft could signify that Taylor isn't a lock to make it to the final year of his deal in 2026.

Unlikely to play vs. Houston
Taylor (triceps) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Texans.
ANALYSIS
Taylor sustained a triceps injury during the Chiefs' Thanksgiving loss to the Cowboys. The injury prevented him from practicing all week, and if he's ultimately ruled out for Sunday's game, then Jaylon Moore would be the next man up at right tackle.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Possible fit for Vegas
John Shipley of SI.com predicts that Taylor will sign with the Raiders this offseason.
ANALYSIS
Taylor has made 66 starts for Jacksonville in four seasons since being selected in the second round of the 2019 NFL Draft. Jacksonville has an in-house replacement ready at right tackle in 2021 second-round pick Walker Little, so Shipley believes the Jaguars will be loath to match a large offer for Taylor in free agency. Shipley projects a three-year, $45 million contract for Taylor from the Raiders.
