A stretcher was sent out for him as members of both teams surrounded him concerned. Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said after the game Taylor's CT scan came back negative and he was able to move his extremities.
In five games, he had four sacks and three tackles for loss.
He missed all of last season with the team due to a stress fracture that required a titanium rod to be put in his leg
At Tennessee, Taylor was an All-SEC third-team selection his senior season. He was taken in the second round with the 48th overall pick by the Seahawks in the 2020 NFL Draft.
