It appears Jonathan Taylor is working his way back into SEC circles.



Auburn is reportedly keeping tabs on the 6-foot-5, 320-pound defensive tackle, who was dismissed from Georgia's program in July.

Taylor was arrested and charged with aggravated assault/family violence and was subsequently dismissed by the Bulldogs. It wasn't his first run-in with the law, as he was also one of four players arrested after trying to double-cash scholarship checks in March.

While his legal issues have yet to be resolved, Taylor is currently on the road to redemption at Copiah-Lincoln Community College in Wesson, Miss.

According to 247Sports, he is being recruited by Auburn, LSU and Louisville. He unofficially visited LSU on Saturday and will "probably" visit Auburn this weekend for the Louisiana Tech game.

In high school, the 6-foot-5, 320-pounder was a four-star prospect out of Jenkins County in Millen, Ga. He held offers from Alabama, Auburn, Clemson, Florida, Florida State, Louisville, LSU, Michigan and South Carolina, among others.

"Me and (Garner) are cool," Taylor said. "I pretty much stay cool with all the coaches I've known. Me and Coach Garner talk probably like once every week, just catching up."



Taylor has yet to be offered again by Auburn, but believes it's a possibility.



"It would be pretty cool if I get an offer," Taylor said. "Especially since I'm in junior college, it would mean a lot. I know I'm a good guy, and I hope I get a second chance to come and play again. I just feel like everybody has the wrong impression of me right now. I'm not a bad guy. I just have to live with my mistake and own up to it."



Taylor played 10 games as a redshirt freshman at Georgia in 2013, recording nine tackles.
