Special-teams grinder with NFL-looking size and a low-drama path to snaps
In the 2024 season, Joe Taylor appeared in eight games for Washington State, all on special teams, after transferring before the Holiday Bowl, and he’s listed at 5-10, 201 pounds with a redshirt-sophomore profile[1]. His value is less about flashy stat lines and more about toughness, physicality, and roster flexibility: he looks like a DB built to hit, cover, and survive in the grind. If you want a depth-piece who can help on special teams and develop into a reliable defensive back, he’s worth a look[1].
