Taylor-Britt reported to jail on Tuesday morning, two days after the Bengals closed out the 2025 season. He had previously pleaded guilty to charges of reckless driving and driving without a license, which stemmed from two separate incidents.

The first incident, per WLWT5, took place on June 18, 2025. Police cited the Bengals player for reckless driving in the downtown area. The court records showed that he had five people in the car at the time.
The second incident occurred on Sept. 14, 2025, the day that the Bengals hosted the Jaguars. Authorities cited him for "street racing" on Joe-Nuxhall Way, failing to obey street signs, and driving with a restricted license.
Taylor-Britt has spent his entire NFL career with the Bengals after joining the team as a second-round pick in the 2022 NFL Draft. He has appeared in 47 games — starting 40 — while posting 203 combined tackles, four tackles for loss, two forced fumbles, seven interceptions, and two interception returns for touchdowns.
The former Nebraska player only appeared in eight games this season while starting two. He missed one game as a healthy scratch after being benched, and then he underwent surgery to repair a Lisfranc injury to his left foot. He had injured his foot getting tangled up with receiver Calvin Austin during a game against the rival Steelers.
Taylor-Britt is set to become a free agent after playing all four years of his rookie deal. He does not know if he will return to the Bengals, but he addressed the possibility during the annual locker room clean-out day.
"Hope so, that's up to them," he told reporters when asked if he will be back in Cincinnati in 2026. "Hell yeah, I love Cincy."
The fourth-year cornerback said that he would both be open to a change in scenery and a return to the Bengals. He added that he would be open to moving to the slot cornerback position after previously playing on the outside.
Taylor-Britt doesn't know what the future holds, but for now, he must spend five days in jail before preparing to take on the 2026 season.
