A wide receiver in the National Football League from 1988–1993, Taylor is probably best known for catching Brett Favre's first ever winning touchdown pass in the NFL, a 35-yard strike to defeat the Cincinnati Bengals, 24-23, on September 20, 1992.
Taylor was a wide receiver and played on special teams for the Kansas City Chiefs in the 1988 season. He played for the New England Patriots in the 1989 season and the San Diego Chargers in the 1990 and 1991 seasons. In 1992, Taylor played for the Green Bay Packers and finished his career with the Denver Broncos in the 1993 season. He totaled 414 receiving yards and one receiving touchdown in his six-year career.
He also had a punt return for a touchdown while playing for the San Diego Chargers in 1990. It was in a game against the team that drafted him, the Kansas City Chiefs, on 12-23-1990, which tied the game.[1]
