Mississippi State quarterback Kamario Taylor is expected to miss the remainder of the 2026 season due to a toe injury that requires surgery. Taylor, who emerged as a breakout player earlier in the season, initially suffered a turf toe injury during a game against Missouri. After attempting to play through the injury against Alabama and Oklahoma, Taylor will now undergo a procedure that ends his year, leaving Parker Puckett as the expected starter for the Bulldogs' remaining games.
