NYG QB Tyrod Taylor - Week 17 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 17 vs. Los Angeles Rams

Tyrod Taylor had 133 yards, a touchdown, and a pick in relief of Tommy DeVito last week against the Eagles. Taylor is now expected to take over the starting job for the remainder of the season. This week, he faces a Rams defense that ranks 28th in aFPA to opposing quarterbacks. While it’s a nice matchup on paper and Taylor may have some streaming value in 2QB leagues, he’s too risky to trust in most formats. Walk away from the Giants’ passing game if possible.

NYG QB Tyrod Taylor - Week 7 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 7 vs. Washington Commanders

Tyrod Taylor threw for a modest 200 yards on 36 pass attempts last week in a low-scoring gritty loss to the Bills. Taylor has always been a reasonably efficient player, and he adds some upside with ground production - five carries for 24 yards last week.

This week, Taylor faces a Washington defense that ranks 25th in aFPA to opposing quarterbacks. In a nice matchup, with some rushing upside, Taylor has some interesting streaming potential, but it’s hard to buy too much into this Giants offense right now, given how the season has gone. We have him ranked outside streaming territory, but he does have just enough rushing upside to warrant deep-league consideration if injuries and bye weeks have decimated your quarterback situation.

HOU QB Tyrod Taylor - Week 13 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 13 vs Colts

Tyrod Taylor threw his first touchdowns since Week 2 against the Jets last week. But the Texans' offense is still lagging and Taylor can only do so much. He does still do pretty well on the ground, giving him an extra boost. He's rushed for at least 20 yards in his three games since returning from injury. He gets the Colts this week, who have been middle-of-the-pack against quarterbacks. Taylor has averaged 17 fantasy points over the last two games, so that feels like a good baseline for where Taylor will land this week.

HOU QB Tyrod Taylor - Week 12 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 12 vs Jets

Somehow, Tyrod Taylor threw for just 107 yards and beat the AFC's current No. 1 seed Tennessee. Oh yeah, he also had those two rushing touchdowns. This week, he gets the free-falling Jets. Taylor actually looks like a sneaky good 2QB start this week against the fourth-worst defense against opposing quarterbacks.

HOU QB Tyrod Taylor - Week 11 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 11 vs Titans

Tyrod Taylor returned to the lineup in Week 9, but the results remained the same for the Texans, as Taylor threw three interceptions against the Dolphins. And things don't get much easier, as Taylor and the Texans face the Titans in Week 11. Here's hoping you don't have to rely on Taylor, but good luck if you have to.

HOU QB Tyrod Taylor - Week 9 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 9 vs Dolphins

Texans HC David Culley said Tyrod Taylor will start this week against the Dolphins as he returns to the lineup after missing six games. And Houston is probably so happy because the offense was very inept with David Mills under center. And what a time to come back, against one of the worst defenses in the league in Miami. Taylor immediately moves back into QB2 territory and, if you need a bye week fill-in, wouldn't be the worst option in the world.

HOU QB Tyrod Taylor - Week 2 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 2 at Browns

Maybe Houston isn't so bad after all? Granted it was against the Jaguars, but Houston sure looked ready to prove doubters wrong in 2020, especially Tyrod Taylor, who had 291 yards and two touchdowns after what was a very strange and unfortunate 2020 season. When you have a playmaker like Brandin Cooks, it helps immensely. In Week 2, Taylor faces what should be an angry Browns team that had the Chiefs right where they wanted them and couldn't hang on. Week 2 will be the first true test for the new-look Houston Texans.
