Report: Dolphins, Taylor to part ways

[Scurrilous]

"Within the past two weeks, since being named a contestant on Dancing with the Stars, Dolphins defensive end Jason Taylor has already left Miami to move into a home in Los Angeles where he plans to stay until his time on the show ends.

Now, however, it appears he might not be returning at all -- at least not to play football.

Taylor and the Dolphins have reportedly agreed to amicably part ways at some point between now and the NFL Draft on April 26, Yahoo Sports reported Saturday night on its Web site. There is no animosity between the two sides, according to the report.

Three sources close to Taylor said Saturday they were not aware of such an agreement, but the notion certainly isn't far fetched. It also isn't much of a surprise. Taylor has privately expressed his frustration with the constant rebuilding projects in Miami, and he isn't interested in being part of another one.

He also has placed emphasis on his post-career plans recently, which was reinforced by his decision to participate on Dancing with the Stars. Taylor's preparations for the show have already begun (it premiers March 17), and his responsibilities might not be fulfilled until mid-May."

Jason Taylor on magazine's top-100 list

<snip>

"Jason Taylor seems to be blessed with it all -- athleticism, grace, and as People magazine points out, good looks.

The Dolphins' standout defensive end has been named one of People's 100 Most Beautiful People -- in the world.

The Dancing star appears on the magazine's website, posing bare-chested in a black-and-white portrait.

"This article will be plastered in the locker room," Taylor tells People. "In the guy world, a sign of respect. I'd be more worried if they didn't tease me."

It is not made clear where in the top 100 Taylor ranks."
