2025 Fantasy Outlook
Taylor is coming off a new career high in tackles for the second year in a row, tallying 89 stops over 17 regular-season appearances in 2024. He also recorded a career-high 4.0 sacks after totaling just 1.0 over the previous two campaigns. With 15 starts last year, the 2022 second-round pick served as the Saints' top cornerback after the team traded Marshon Lattimore to the Commanders in November. The Saints overhauled their coaching staff this offseason, which included adding a new defensive coordinator in Brandon Staley. Nevertheless, Taylor's CB1 standing should carry over into 2025.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
2022
Taylor totaled career highs across the board last season with 75 tackles, 14 passes defended and two interceptions. The 2022 second-round pick formed the Saints' top cornerback duo alongside Paulson Adebo while Marshon Lattimore was sidelined for much of the season. Lattimore still is the team's clear top cornerback when he's healthy, and Adebo entered the 2023 campaign as the team's other outside cornerback. Therefore, it's likely that Taylor and rookie Kool-Aid McKinstry will compete for the starting nickel role.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Also targeted by Colts
The Colts targeted Taylor in a trade before landing Sauce Gardner, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Several Saints players were in trade rumors ahead of Tuesday's deadline, though Taylor ultimately stayed put. That aligned with previous reports that the team didn't want to move him. An extension would be the next logical step, as Taylor will hit free agency this offseason if he doesn't get a new deal.
