The New York Giants will be starting quarterback Taylor for the third consecutive week in place of Daniel Jones when they take on the New York Jets this Sunday. Jones has been out with a hamstring injury since Week 12 and the Giants have been relying on Taylor to lead the team in his absence.
Taylor has been impressive in his two starts so far, leading the Giants to a win over the Seattle Seahawks and a close loss to the Arizona Cardinals. He has completed over 70 percent of his passes for 454 yards, three touchdowns, and one interception in those two games. He has also added another dimension to the offense with his mobility, rushing for a combined total of 78 yards and one touchdown.
The Giants have been pleased with Taylor’s performance and are confident that he can lead them to victory against the Jets this Sunday. The Jets have had a difficult season, but they have been playing better lately and have won their last two games. The Giants will need Taylor to continue his strong play if they want to come away with a win.
Taylor will be facing a Jets defense that ranks in the bottom half of the league in most categories, including passing yards allowed per game. This should give him plenty of opportunities to make plays and help the Giants move the ball down the field.
It will be interesting to see how Taylor performs against the Jets this Sunday. If he can continue his strong play, the Giants should be able to come away with a win and keep their playoff hopes alive.
