Jonathan Taylor cracked the Top 20 of the NFL Top 100 Players of 2026, ranking No. 17, a major leap from not being considered on last year's list despite having made it before. The source attributes this recognition to his highly productive season: 1,585 rushing yards, 18 rushing touchdowns on 323 carries across all 17 starts; his rushing touchdowns and carries led the league while he finished 3rd in total rushing yards.
