It’s been a rough third year in the NFL for Seahawks outside linebacker Darrell Taylor. After posting 6.5 sacks and 13 quarterback hits last year, he was supposed to have a breakout season and become one of the team’s two starters on the edge opposite Uchenna Nwosu.
It hasn’t happened. Taylor has rarely made a positive impact on the field this season and he’s graded out as their second-worst defender among those players with a significant snap count. Taylor has just three sacks and four QB hits for the season. It seems he’s desperate enough to make a difference that he’s willing to charge onto the field before the whistle blows.
