The first thing to know about this rarity is that most Taylor signed jerseys are the low-quality, mass-produced replicas and very few of the pro-grade Reebok examples have ever surfaced. The second thing to know is that there's no finer Taylor autograph on the face of the earth than the huge, 11"-wide, 3"-high, "10"-strength signature presented here. Nicknamed "Meast" (half man, half beast), Taylor played 4 NFL seasons and is perhaps best remembered for a punishing 2006 Pro Bowl hit (watch here). In 2007, he was tragically killed at age 24 while protecting his family during an attempted burglary at his Florida home. To honor the 15th anniversary of his death, Washington will dedicate a permanent memorial to him at FedEx Field during the upcoming season's home game against the Falcons. The Reebok "NFL Equipment" size XL jersey radiates in Near Mint condition.
