On December 4, 2011, Tyrod Taylor participated in his first regular-season game, which ended in a victory over the Cleveland Browns.
He gained two yards on the run. On December 18, he made an appearance and threw an 18-yard touchdown pass in a regular season. When the Indianapolis Colts came to town, he also lined up as a wide receiver on one play.
In 2011, Taylor took part in the East-West Shrine Game. For 59 yards on his five passes, he completed four of them. Taylor received extensive playing time on December 30, 2012, when Flacco was rested for the majority of the Week 17 matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals.
In the fourth quarter, Taylor scored the first touchdown of his career on a one-yard bootleg. Taylor did, however, also throw a significant interception to defensive end Carlos Dunlap, who then scored a touchdown on it.
By a score of 23-17, the Ravens fell to the Bengals in their matchup. Taylor eventually earned a championship ring as a backup when the Ravens defeated the San Francisco 49ers in the Super Bowl XLVII.
Before leaving the 10-3 loss in the Wild Card Round against the Jacksonville Jaguars with a concussion, Taylor had 134 passing yards and an interception.
