My Take
Jason Taylor is exactly the kind of athlete I admire. At a towering 198 cm out of Pittsburgh, he turned himself into one of the NFL's premier defensive ends, spending the bulk of his career anchoring the Miami Dolphins. Defense is unglamorous work, but stopping the other team's best is the spine of any winning side, and he did it at an elite level for years. What seals my respect is the second act: now coaching defensive ends at the Miami Hurricanes, passing the craft forward. That combination of relentless on-field standards and a willingness to teach is the mark of a true professional, and I rate him highly.
