I’ve been watching the skins since about 1980. Watched all of their super bowls, playoff runs, etc., etc. It saddens me every time I see these posts about him. Taylor was sort of a throwback from those great 80’s defenses they had. Teams stayed away from him as much as they possibly can without actually playing on the sidelines and yet we still got to see how great he was. He changed the game just by stepping on the field.

IMO he was well on his way to being one of the Redskin greats and possibly to a HOF career. I get such a pit in my stomach when I think of how he went out and I feel lucky to have seen his few years in the NFL. I dont think everyone realizes the magnitude of what was lost and in some ways I feel the Redskins organization is still trying to recover.

Miss you SEAN!
