Taylor played five seasons at Rice University before entering the NFL draft last month. As an owl, the native of Miami collected 231 plated and four bags. He also recorded 190 yards and a hit in his prolonged university career.
“Now he has the chance to make his mark, to forge his own path, to compete for a list place and to honor the memory of Sean,” wrote Creed Sports and Entertainment on social networks. “Gabe could not be more excited, concentrated and ready for the opportunity.”
Sean was the fifth choice of NFL 2004 draft and played three and a half seasons in Washington as 2x pro Bowler before his tragic death in 2007. Sean died at the age of 24 after being killed by an intruder at his home in Miami. Taylor totaled 12 interceptions, 8 forced escapes, 305 plated and 2 bags on 55 games played in Washington.
