Too soon to lateral?

I was laid off in 2023 from a BB, and it took me several months to get a banking job at a MM which I have been at for 3 months. I got this job through an MD at the BB I was close with. I now have a shot at an EB interview through someone else in my network. Should I submit an app? Anything I can do about mitigating the damage done to my old network? I want to get to an EB long term and getting a full year with them before VP promotion seems beneficial to me.
