Taylor is cut
After a year of "Dancing With the Stars" and struggling with the Redskins, Jason Taylor wanted some family time. He got it.
The former NFL defensive player of the year's disappointing turn in the nation's capital came to an end when he was cut by the Redskins for refusing to commit to their offseason workout program.
The Redskins wanted to add a workout clause to Taylor's hefty contract, but the 34-year-old defensive end declined. The clause would have required Taylor to take part in 25 days of offseason workouts.
"He just kind of chose family over going up there," said Taylor's agent, Gary Wichard.
