Taywan Taylor‘s big day

For all the criticism Taywan Taylor has had to deal with in the last 48 hours, he apparently hasn’t let it shake his confidence so far.

Today all reports gave him high grades, including a big performance in the redzone drill.

For Taylor, this next week of practice and the game against the New England Patriots is quietly crucial.

He will get a chance to compete with some of the most well coached defensive backs in the NFL and he will be able to prove to the Titans whether or not he can really be trusted as a part of this offense that is suddenly loaded with weapons.

On top of that, a good day from him could lead to interest from the New England Patriots in a potential trade situation, given how unproven they are at the position right now.

So in one week he could completely redeem himself to the Titans and make himself a hot commodity as a trade target. A very big next few days for him that he has started off right with a big practice on Saturday.
