McNeese safety Morris Taylor brings length, reliability, and uphill-attack energy
Morris Taylor, a 6-foot-1, 185-pound safety for McNeese entering the 2026 season, looks like a steady defensive back with a nose for contact and a frame that fits the position well. In 2025, he logged 7 total tackles, including 3 solo stops and 4 assists, plus 1 pass breakup, showing he can contribute in space and around the line without needing splash plays to matter. What makes him interesting is the upside-to-floor combo: he already has game experience, he’s on the bigger side for a safety, and he profiles as a dependable fit for teams that value physicality, effort, and range over flash.
