The Packers signed Taylor to their practice squad on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor has bounced on and off the Packers' active roster throughout the season. He was most recently waived Wednesday, though it didn't take long for him to rejoin the team. He has played in eight games on the campaign, with 78 of his 79 snaps coming on special teams.

Green Bay cut Taylor on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor was signed to the active roster Nov. 15 ahead of the Packers' Thursday night loss to Tennessee, but he was limited to a special-teams role in that contest. The 24-year-old has been active for eight of Green Bay's 11 games this season, but he's seen only one offensive snap and no touches. Taylor could return to the Packers' practice squad if he goes unclaimed off waivers.

Taylor was signed to the Packers' active roster from their practice squad Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor's addition to the active roster comes as the team waived Kylin Hill on Tuesday. The 24-year-old has already appeared in seven games for the Packers this season, but has only seen one snap on offense. With Aaron Jones (shin) questionable for Thursday's game with the Titans, Taylor could be in for a considerable workload, if Jones were to sit.

Taylor signed with the Packers' practice squad Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor was waived by the Packers from their 53-man roster on Tuesday, but he's now back with the franchise as a member of their practice squad. The 24-year-old has played in seven games for the team this season, making his contributions on special teams. He'll now work to find his way back to the active roster.

The Packers waived Taylor on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
After not suiting up for the season opener, Taylor appeared in seven straight games but played primarily on special teams. Him being cut suggests Kylin Hill will be activated from IR ahead of Week 9 to operate as the No. 3 running back behind Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon. If Taylor clears waivers, Green Bay will likely re-sign him to a practice-squad deal.

Green Bay signed Taylor from its practice squad to its active roster Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor was elevated ahead of Week 2 versus Chicago and played only eight snaps on special teams, but the Packers evidently saw enough from him to give him a promotion ahead of Sunday's game at Tampa Bay. He will likely continue to contribute exclusively on special teams as long as Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon remain healthy.

Taylor reverted to the Packers' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction report.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor got the call to be the Packers' No. 3 running back Sunday against the Bears with Kylin Hill (knee) still on the PUP list. However, he never saw the field on offense and only contributed on eight special-teams snaps. With Hill out for at least two more weeks, Taylor will look to earn another chance with the active roster Sunday against the Buccaneers.

The Packers elevated Taylor from their practice squad Saturday to the active roster for Sunday's contest against the Bears.
EDGE Analysis
With Kylin Hill (knee) sidelined, Taylor and Tyler Goodson competed during training camp for the No. 3 spot behind Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon. However, the Packers opted to keep only two running backs on the initial 53-man roster, leaving Taylor and Goodson to sign practice-squad deals. Neither practice-squad player was elevated for Green Bay's season-opening loss, but Taylor will get the first look as the No. 3 RB in Week 2. Last year, he rushed 23 times for 89 yards and scored one touchdown across nine appearances. However, barring injuries, Taylor isn't expected to garner many touches against Chicago.

The Packers signed Taylor to their practice squad Wednesday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
With Kylin Hill (knee) sidelined, Taylor and Tyler Goodson competed during training camp for the No. 3 spot behind Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon. Taylor did his best to earn the job, rushing 18 times for 71 yards while catching three passes for 17 yards across three exhibition contests. However, the Packers opted to keep just two running backs on their initial 53-man roster, with the understanding that Amari Rodgers or Randall Cobb could handle emergency RB duties if Jones or Dillon went down with an injury. Regardless, Taylor and Goodson are both candidates to be elevated on a weekly basis now that they are members of the practice squad.

The Packers waived Taylor on Tuesday, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor appeared in nine games for Green Bay last year, but the Packers will role with Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon as their only two healthy running backs ahead of the regular season. Over three preseason games, Taylor rushed 18 times for 71 yards while tallying three receptions for 17 yards.
