Newcomer Caleb Taylor Brings Dual-Threat Talent to John Curtis Patriots
Patriots quarterback Caleb Taylor tossed for 245 yards and two touchdowns in his team's spring game, showcasing his arm strength and accuracy. The Class of 2027 signal-caller transferred to John Curtis from out-of-state, but quickly earned the starting role. Taylor's dual-threat ability has drawn comparisons to NFL quarterbacks like Russell Wilson. As a 4A quarterback in the LHSAA, Taylor will face stiff competition in the postseason. He has been working on his footwork and dropback mechanics to improve his passing efficiency. Taylor's ability to extend plays with his legs and make throws on the run has scouts excited about his potential. What scouts are watching for this season is Taylor's ability to read defenses and make adjustments at the line of scrimmage, as well as his development as a pocket passer.
