Irish A-to-Z: Elijah Taylor

A year after redshirting, Elijah Taylor enters a crowded defensive line group looking for playmakers. A year after the front seven struggled to hold up against the run, Taylor is one of many young players who can help Keith Gilmore build a rugged front.

Likely still a ways from the field, Taylor will provide depth behind Jarron Jones and Daniel Cage, though isn’t too far away from being a Next Man In.
