SOoooo, who is broadcasting this scrimmage next weekend?

skins052bgr8 · 07-31-2005, 03:23 PM

He's here and hopefully with a new outlook, first glimpse appears to be so. So glad training camp and football is here.

Redskins' Taylor 'happy to be back'

NFL.com wire reports

ASHBURN, Va. (July 31, 2005) -- Smiling and unusually congenial, safety Sean Taylor reported to Washington Redskins training camp July 31, ending an offseason in which he snubbed his coaches and got arrested in Florida.

"I'm happy to be back," Taylor said as he walked to his car after taking his required conditioning test with the team's training staff.

Taylor sported a different look and different attitude, at least in the few seconds he was exposed to reporters.

He wore his hair tightly braided under a baseball cap, with green shirt and white baggy shorts. He smiled as reporters walked with him and even paused in his car to gave one photographer extra time to take his picture -- a gesture unimaginable when Taylor was boycotting the media for much of last year.

Taylor said he would speak more at length August 1, when the Redskins hold their first practices.

"I'll have something for you in the morning," he said.

Being cooperative won't end Taylor's troubles, however. He is facing a felony charge of aggravated assault with a firearm and a misdemeanor charge of simple battery stemming from June 1 confrontation near his Miami home. His trial is set for Sept. 12, the day after the Redskins open the regular season. Even if the trial is postponed, the matter will cloud Taylor's season.

Even before his arrest, Taylor upset coach Joe Gibbs by staying away from the team's offseason meetings and practices. In 2004, his eventful rookie year included a drunken driving charge that was later dismissed, a fine for skipping the NFL's mandatory rookie symposium, several in-season fines for uniform violations and illegal hits, and the hiring and firing of two agents. He refused to speak to reporters for most of the season and was often surly when approached.

On the field, Taylor showed promise with his speed, athleticism and his fearless hitting. He had 89 tackles, four interceptions, forced two fumbles and finished fourth in voting for the AP's NFL defensive rookie of the year.
