A Greenbrier, Tennessee native, Taylor joined the Tennessee football program as a preferred walk-on in the 2022 signing class.

A former three-star safety prospect out of Greenbrier High School, Taylor did not see any playing time in his lone season with the Vols.

He joins Tennessee punter Kolby Morgan and defensive lineman Amari McNeil in the portal.
