Packers WR Malik Taylor states case for roster spot against Jets

Malik Taylor was the reason why the Green Bay Packers didn’t keep Jake Kumerow, and he could be the reason why the Packers don’t keep Devin Funchess.

The young receiver has stated a strong case for keeping his roster spot through two preseason games.

Taylor, who made the roster as the sixth receiver last summer, caught four passes for a team-high 66 yards against the New York Jets on Saturday, giving him nine catches for 116 yards this preseason.

It was a terrific performance from a young receiver trying to make a deep Packers roster for the second straight year.
