Taylor's Dancing is Over

Free-agent DE Jason Taylor has ended his dancing and flirtation with the Pats. The former
All-Pro has signed a one year contract with the Miami Dolphins, his former team. This reunites him with Bill Parcells who not happy last year when Taylor skipped off-season workouts to rehearse for "Dancing With the Stars". This resulted in his release and subsequent signing by the Washington Redskins.

Taylor was seen as being able to make the adjustment to the 3-4 defense of the Pats. There was some question as to whether he could fit within the salary cap of the team. Look for the Pats to bring in a couple of veteran bodies on defense as teams will be releasing players to avoid guaranteed payments after June 1. The Pats are at the league limit of 80 players, plus their 12 draft choices.
