From the article

If you take Taylor's entire career and project the game-by-game numbers to a full season, you get 1,835 scrimmage yards and 15 total touchdowns... I believe you can trust Taylor to stay healthy in 2026 (like he did last year), at least enough to take him here at 1.07.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Taylor projects to 1,835 scrimmage yards and 15 TDs; health risk mitigated by 2025 durability.

Taylor led the NFL in rushing attempts and rushing touchdowns in 2025 (like he did in 2021) and led the league in rushing yards gained after forcing a missed tackle in 2025 (637, per NFL Pro). Projecting his career game-by-game numbers to a full season yields 1,835 scrimmage yards and 15 total touchdowns. Health is a concern (missed 6, 7, and 3 games in 2022-2024), but David Montgomery believes Taylor can stay healthy in 2026 like he did last year.
