The Packers signed Taylor off the Patriots' practice squad Monday.
EDGE Analysis
With Aaron Jones injured earlier in the season, Taylor appeared in four games for Green Bay, recording an 11-31-0 rushing line and 5-28-0 receiving on 10 targets. He then landed in New England after the Packers exhausted Taylor's elevations to the 53-man roster. With Jones (knee) hurt again, along with Emanuel Wilson (shoulder), Taylor is back to complement AJ Dillon.

New England signed Taylor to its practice squad Wednesday, Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
A little over a week after being cut by Green Bay, Taylor has now found a new opportunity to make an impression with the Patriots. Over four games with the Packers this season, Taylor took 11 carries for 31 yards and caught five of 10 targets for 28 yards.

The Packers waived Taylor on Tuesday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor appeared in four of the Packers' opening five games as a practice-squad call-up but was officially signed to the 53-man roster ahead of Monday night's loss to the Raiders. He's carried 11 times for 31 yards on limited chances behind Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon. Taylor is a candidate to return to Green Bay's practice squad should he clear waivers.

Taylor had two carries for two yards and two receptions for five yards in Monday's 17-13 loss to the Raiders.
EDGE Analysis
With Aaron Jones (hamstring) unavailable Monday, Taylor worked as Green Bay's second running back. He played just over a third of the snaps -- far more than fellow reserve Emanuel Wilson -- but with AJ Dillon having his best game of the season, Taylor was only minimally involved. The Packers signed Taylor to the active roster earlier Monday, so consider him locked into the third running back on the depth chart moving forward.

Taylor has been brought up to the Packers' active roster ahead of Monday night's game against the Raiders, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
EDGE Analysis
Aaron Jones (hamstring) is inactive for the contest, leaving AJ Dillon as Green Bay's starter in the backfield. Taylor is likely to handle the bulk of work on the ground behind Dillon, with Emanuel Wilson working as the No. 3 back. This is the fourth time Taylor will be active on the campaign. Through three contests, he's recorded 29 rushing yards on nine carries and has caught three of five targets for 23 yards through the air.

Taylor was signed to Green Bay's 53-man roster Monday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor needed to be signed to the active roster to play Monday against the Raiders since he had already been elevated from the practice squad three times. With Aaron Jones (hamstring) slated to miss, Taylor should see the bulk of the snaps behind AJ Dillon and ahead of Emanuel Wilson, putting him firmly in play for single-game DFS contests as a punt option.

Taylor reverted to the Packers' practice squad Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor was elevated for the third contest in a row Sunday, turning three carries into six yards while reeling in three passes for 23 yards in the Packers' 18-17 win over the Saints. The running back logged 29 offensive snaps while operating as the team's primary backup behind AJ Dillon in Green Bay's backfield with Aaron Jones (hamstring) unavailable. If Jones can't play Thursday night versus Detroit, the Packers may have to officially sign Taylor to the 53-man roster since he's already been elevated three times this year.

Taylor had three carries for six yards and three receptions for 23 yards in Sunday's 18-17 victory over the Saints.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor did not produce big numbers, but his 29 offensive snaps were roughly five times as many snaps as Emanuel Wilson's six and just a handful fewer than the 37 that AJ Dillon saw as Green Bay's starting running back. The front office could have some tough decisions to make soon, as having already been elevated from the practice squad three times, Taylor can no longer suit up without being added to the 53-man roster -- and he could be needed again in Week 4 if top running back Aaron Jones (hamstring) isn't able to take the field Thursday against the Lions.

The Packers elevated Taylor to their active roster Saturday ahead of Sunday's game against the Saints.
EDGE Analysis
Since this is the third time that the Packers have called up Taylor from the practice squad, they will have to sign him to their roster if they wish to continue fielding him for the rest of the season. Taylor split snaps with Emanuel Wilson behind AJ Dillon in their 25-24 loss to the Falcons in Week 2. Taylor has registered six carries for 23 yards in two contests this season.

Taylor reverted to the Packers' practice squad Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor was elevated for the second straight week from Green Bay's practice squad, garnering one carry for a yard while operating as the primary backup to AJ Dillon in the Packers' 25-24 loss to Atlanta. If Aaron Jones (hamstring) can't go again in Week 3 versus New Orleans, it's possible Taylor gets elevated again.
