Tyrod Taylor

Taylor likely relieved some of the pressure for a QB change in Cleveland when he hooked up with Antonio Callaway for a 42-yard TD late in Sunday's loss to New Orleans. This week he gets a Thursday night matchup with a surprisingly tough Jets D that picked off Matthew Stafford four times in Week 1 and limited Ryan Tannehill to under 200 yards passing in Week 2. Taylor's rushing ability will always give him a high fantasy floor, but he's a mid-range QB2 at best this week.

Tyrod Taylor posts 246-yard game

Cleveland Browns quarterback Tyrod Taylor completed 22 of his 30 passes for 246 yards, one touchdown, and one interception in his team's 21-18 loss to the Saints in Week 2.

Fantasy Impact

Taylor also added four rushes for 26 yards in the game. Despite the loss, Taylor played much better then he did in Week 1. The veteran quarterback completed two clutch passes on his team's final series to give kicker Zane Gonzalez a shot to tie it, but Gonzalez missed the field goal. Taylor and the Browns have a short turnaround as they will take on the Jets on Thursday.
