Taylor is expected to take over for starting quarterback Jett Thomalla, who is signed with Alabama.

Charles Power of Rivals had nothing but praise for one of 2027's top prospects.

"Trae Taylor set the pace in an extremely deep quarterback group at Rivals Nashville. The Nebraska commit has made strides over the past year, adding size and strength to his frame. Taylor flashed a strong arm in each period and station throughout the day."

Taylor is one of eight recruits committed to the class of 2027. The class of 2027 is ranked No. 14 in the nation and No. 4 in the Big Ten Conference according to Rivals.
