Taylor got in minimal playing time as a rookie, contributing on special teams. After an offseason of change to the defensive backs room, the former Jim Thorpe Award winner for the most outstanding defensive back in the country is looking to step up and earn more playing time.
The two discuss how the attitude around the building has already shifted under Carroll, how close-knit the 2024 rookie class is, what his adjustment to living in Las Vegas has been like, and why the future feels bright for the Raiders and for himself personally.
