Larry Taylor is a wide receiver and kick returner for the Montreal Alouettes of the Canadian Football League. He originally signed with the Alouettes as a free agent in 2008. He played college football for the Connecticut Huskies (UConn), where he returned punts for touchdowns in each of the Huskies’ first two bowl games—the 2004 Motor City Bowl and the 2007 Meineke Car Care Bowl. Taylor has also been a member of the New York Jets.
In 2008, the native of Fort Lauderdale, Fla., led the Alouettes in punt-return yards with 517 and was sixth in the CFL, despite starting the season on Montreal’s practice squad. The 24 year old turned in a breakout performance in 2009 with a league-high 788 yards on 89 punt returns for an 8.9-yard average. Two of his returns went for touchdowns. The five-foot-six, 177-pound Taylor also averaged 20.8 yards on 51 kickoff returns. In addition to being the league’s top special-teams performer, Taylor was an East Division and CFL all-star this past season.
Taylor played his college football at the University Connecticut, registering 25 catches for 259 yards as a senior. He also had 31 punt returns for 357 yards and two touchdowns and 11 kickoff returns for 205 yards. Taylor has outstanding speed and quickness and is tough to bring down because of his strength and low center of gravity.
