After the 2017 NFL season, the future seemed very promising for San Francisco 49ers rookie wide receiver Trent Taylor. He finished his rookie campaign with 43 receptions for 430 yards and two touchdowns. He teamed with quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo, who was acquired right before the trade deadline and made a big impact in the last five games of the season.
2018 looked to be Taylor’s breakout season. However, complications arose from his offseason back surgery and his breakout season turned into a sophomore slump. Then when 2019 rolled around, Taylor looked to have a triumphant return.
