He previously played at Reinhardt University from 2014-18.

Omaha head coach, Marvin Jones, is encouraged to see players get opportunities at higher levels. “Taylor is a great athlete that put in the work last season. It’s great to see him rewarded with this opportunity,” Jones said. “If he continues to learn and develop, I expect to see great things from him this year in Canada”.

Despite losing a talented defensive player, Jones has no problem losing players under these circumstances. “This is what we tell the players when they come in here,” Jones said. “We are committed to helping players develop both on and off of the field. And when players have the talents and abilities to move up to a higher level, we are going to do everything we can to support our players with that progression.”
