2019 (Sophomore)
Taylor-Britt was a versatile and productive member of the Husker secondary in 2019, earning honorable-mention All-Big Ten recognition. He played in 11 of 12 games with 10 starts, missing the Purdue game due to illness. He started seven games at safety and three at cornerback, lining up at multiple positions to total 49 tackles, four TFLs, 1.5 sacks, three interceptions, two pass breakups and four forced fumbles. His four forced fumbles ranked third nationally and tied for the most by a Husker since 1999. Taylor-Britt led the team in forced fumbles and tied for the team lead in interceptions.

He began his sophomore campaign with a career game against South Alabama, totaling five tackles against the Jaguars, including the first two TFLs of his career and his first career sack. Taylor-Britt also forced a pair of turnovers, intercepting the first pass of his career - which he returned 48 yards - and forcing a fumble on his sack which was recovered by teammate Alex Davis in the end zone for a touchdown. Taylor-Britt earned his first career start the next week at Colorado and again had five tackles while forcing a career-high two fumbles, one of which was recovered by Nebraska. Taylor-Britt had one tackle and one pass breakup against Northern Illinois before leaving the game in the second quarter with an injury.
