No. 4 – Tyrod Taylor: ‘I Put My Foot in the Ground’
2:00, second-and-10 at the Atlanta 10. After RB Breece Hall is dropped for a yard loss, Taylor finds his passing options unavailable and takes off for the end zone.
“They took away the first and second read as I stepped up in the pocket, sometimes the defense doesn’t account for the quarterback, so I saw a lane and went,” Taylor said about his TD run. “But 55 [Atlanta LB Kaden Elliss] did a good job of trying to cut that off and I put my foot in the ground. … Trust in my feet, trust the progression, and it got me up, in and out of the pocket.”
Nick Folk’s PAT made it 24-24.
