Taylor, per Rosenblatt, is "beloved by many in the Jets locker room, namely Garrett Wilson." There's almost no chance that Taylor can absorb 17 games of punishment entering his age-36 season. He couldn't handle it four years ago in 2021 when he was the Texans starter heading into the regular season. But he'll be effective until hurt, and could probably play a bridge quarterback role for the Jets in 2025. Rosenblatt believes it is "conceivable that Taylor will compete with a rookie or another QB option in training camp for the right to start in Week 1."
