The Washington Redskins announced today that the late Sean Taylor will be inducted in to the Ring of Fame at FedEx Field on November 30th, before facing the New York Giants at 1 pm.
This is Washington's first game following the one year anniversary of Taylor's death on November 27th, 2007.
Taylor will be the 43rd member of the Redskins elite.
“It’s appropriate that Sean joins our Ring of Fame after a stellar career cut short far too soon,” Redskins owner Daniel M. Snyder said. “His life touched so many of us in such deep and lasting ways. His presence is all around us, in our organization and among our fans.”
Executive Vice President of Football Operations Vinny Cerrato added: “Sean was developing into one of the best to ever play the safety position, as well as becoming a role model to those who knew him. He still touches us every day in some way on and off the field.”
Well deserved.
Hail.
