Devon Taylor: Jesuit's Rising Star Overcomes Adversity
Fairfield Prep Jesuits quarterback Devon Taylor is a name to watch this season, and it's not just because he's a senior in a CIAC 5A Division II school. Taylor's impressive performance in the spring game caught the attention of scouts, throwing for 217 yards and two touchdowns in just one half of action. But what's even more impressive is the journey he took to get to this point. A torn ACL in his sophomore year left many wondering if Taylor would ever regain his starting role. However, the Jesuits' signal-caller worked tirelessly in the weight room and on the practice field, and it paid off. Now, Taylor is poised to lead the Jesuits to a successful season. Scouts are watching to see how he adapts to the demands of a full season and if he can maintain his accuracy and decision-making under pressure.
