After a roster announcement for the 2027 season, Taylor took to social media to express his excitement over the return of former starting quarterback Anthony Colandrea. Colandrea, a five-star recruit, announced on Friday that he would be returning to Nebraska for his final season in 2027. Colandrea had a remarkable season, throwing for 1,570 yards, 14 touchdowns, and rushing for 334 yards and four touchdowns. He also completed 63% of his passes. Taylor, ranked among the top quarterbacks in his class of 2027, is eager to learn from Colandrea and hopes that backup quarterback TJ Lateef will rejoin the team for the 2027 campaign. Taylor emphasized that this news does not affect his commitment to Nebraska and looks forward to competing and learning under the leadership of the Husker quarterbacks.",
