Dolphins Sign DE/LB Jason Taylor To A 1-Year, $1.5M Deal

The Dolphins have brought back former defensive star Jason Taylor to a one-year, $1.5 million deal. ''My heart has always been in Miami, so I'm truly excited to call myself a Dolphin once again,'' Taylor said in a statement. "I was presented with a number of different opportunities, but, in the end, the combination of this being the best situation for my family, my love for this community and my tremendous loyalty to a great organization made this an easy decision.'' The Redskins released Taylor, who would've made $8 million in base salary in 2009 on that contract, back in February. Though one media outlet reported the Patriots and Taylor had reached a ''handshake deal,'' agent Gary Wichard dismissed that idea. ''There was never any handshake agreement with anyone,'' Wichard said. "I never talked numbers, I never talked parameters with anybody. I talked to a handful of teams that expressed interest, but never would we make a commitment because Jason wanted to play in Miami.''

i heard it's a 1 year deal worth $1.1 million. that's just above the veteran minimum. taylor may only want to play 1 more year and now he gets the chance to retire as a dolphin. pretty cool.
