What happened: New York offensive coordinator Frank Reich outlined the impact Mason Taylor would add to the offense. The tight end missed the past two games with a thumb injury but was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.

Why it matters: Taylor's impending return gives Reich an established option as New York looks to rebound from a Week 4 loss. During his absence, the offense leaned on first-round pick Kenyon Sadiq. Reintegrating Taylor provides the play-caller with a familiar target to help stabilize the passing attack.

What to watch: Taylor's practice workload will be monitored ahead of a Week 5 matchup against the Cleveland Browns.
