Noah Taylor brings Virginia State speed, size, and upside at wide receiver
In the 2026 season, Virginia State lists Noah Taylor as a 6'2", 170-pound redshirt freshman receiver, and the roster/recap pages show no official game statistics yet[3][9]. His appeal is the classic high-upside package: long frame, legit burst, and verified athletic markers from Hudl that point to playable speed and vertical juice[12]. Because there’s no public stat line to lean on yet, the bigger read is projection—he looks like a developmental fit for a staff that wants a lean, explosive perimeter target rather than a finished product[3][12].
