Default Will a Jordan JXR6 work effectively in a tapered TL?

I know this is a spiderless driver specifically designed for a sealed enclosure and I may have asked this question once before (but I cannot find my original question on search)- I am guessing that tapering will offer some back pressure to control cone excursion (how much I don't know) and that the volume of the line would be small if the line is quarter wave.
Would it help if the taper was severe for the first foot, then less severe for the rest of the length?

It could be used in a TL if it had an active HP on it, a midTL. I wouldn't use a TL to try to extend the bass.

Thanks for answering Dave

I don't want to use it for bass duties, but I wd like to stay passive, x/o will be 1st order at 175 -200 hz . Risky?
