Gabe Taylor isn't your typical undrafted player in rookie minicamp on a tryout basis. You see, Taylor is the younger brother of legendary Washington safety Sean Taylor. And after going undrafted last month, Taylor chose to attend the Washington Commanders' rookie minicamp instead of going elsewhere. He had options, he chose Washington.
On Friday, Taylor arrived in Ashburn for his first NFL practice. After his second practice on Saturday, Taylor spoke with the media.
"They upgraded the facility for sure," Taylor said about the Commanders' Ashburn headquarters. "Just coming in through these doors, all the memories, and they got the 21 jersey on the wall in the equipment room and then to just see my brother's name there, it's something I feel like I gotta do to represent him.
