Jason Taylor admitted on Sunday that he considered signing with the Patriots this past offseason. There was a mutual interest between Taylor and New England after Washington released him in March. "We talked with them, with the organization, and with Bill [Belichick]," Taylor told the Boston Herald. "My heart was in Miami, my family was in Miami, so it was important for me to try to stay there. But if it didn't work out in Miami, then I probably would've been there." The Dolphins will battle the Patriots in New England this weekend.
