Free-agent wide receiver Jordan Taylor is scheduled to meet with the Minnesota Vikings on Monday followed by a visit with the Seattle Seahawks on Wednesday, according to Aaron Wilson of The Houston Chronicle.
Taylor spent the 2018 campaign with the Denver Broncos, playing in 10 games and registering 13 catches for 142 yards.
The 27-year-old, who played his collegiate football at Rice University, went undrafted but eventually landed with the Broncos in 2015. He was then waived by Denver just before the 2015 campaign began and was out of football for a year-and-a-half before re-joining the Broncos in April 2017.
Taylor went on to appear in all 16 contests that ensuing season, catching 16 passes for 209 yards and a couple of touchdowns.
He played four years at Rice, posting remarkably consistent numbers over his final three collegiate seasons.
During his senior campaign, he hauled in 54 receptions for 842 yards and seven scores. He began earning significant playing time during his sophomore year, when he snared 57 balls for 826 yards while reaching the end zone three times. Then, in his junior season, Taylor finished with 55 catches for 848 yards and eight touchdowns.
At 6-foot-5, 210 pounds, Taylor has good size.
The Vikings are coming off of a disappointing 2018 campaign in which they went 8-7-1 and missed the playoffs, one year after winning 13 games and making it all the way to the NFC Championship Game.
Meanwhile, the Seahawks won 10 games and captured a Wild Card berth in the NFC. They went on to lose to the Dallas Cowboys in the Wild Card Round of the postseason.
