Taylor made the most of his heavy workload in the Jaguars' preseason opener, rushing 22 times for 78 yards and a TD. The undrafted rookie out of Virginia could see extended run again, as Bhayshul Tuten and Chris Rodriguez are unlikely to play much, while LeQuint Allen is sidelined by an undisclosed injury. Ameer Abdullah and DeeJay Dallas are known quantities with 154 and 84 games of regular-season experience respectively, so Jacksonville's coaching staff can glean much more out of seeing Taylor in a game situation compared to those veteran alternatives.

Undrafted rookie running back was already an intriguing name coming out of camp but turned that intrigue into production Saturday, rushing for 78 yards on 22 carries and a touchdown. He showed early flashes with rushes of 5 and 7 yards, and following halftime, his two reps of pass protection looked stout with continuous foot movement at point of contact. He also converted the 2-yard touchdown run to cut the lead to six, showing his nose for the end zone.

Undrafted rookie running back J'Mari Taylor was a revelation in preseason week one, finishing with 78 yards on 22 carries highlighted by strong running on the team's opening drive of the second half (32 yards) that led to the team's first touchdown to Hunter Long, and later rushed in the two-point conversion; Taylor then punched in a touchdown to help the Jags take the lead in the waning minutes of the fourth quarter, stepping up to earn his roster spot.

Undrafted rookie J'Mari Taylor adds another dimension to the kick return competition. The NFL's new dynamic kickoff style has resulted in more running backs and bulkier wide receiver-types being tagged for the new kick return duties. With many players on the roster having college experience returning kicks and the current NFL returns being more in the style of a run play, Taylor could make a compelling case to join LeQuint Allen back deep or even push him for the role.

The NFL's new dynamic kickoff style has resulted in more running backs and bulkier wide receiver-types being tagged for the new kick return duties. With many players on the roster having college experience returning kicks and the current NFL returns being more in the style of a run play, Taylor could be the area where either this rookie or other candidates makes a compelling case to join LeQuint Allen back deep or even push him for the role.
