Jets rookie Mason Taylor loves the high expectations that come from being Hall of Famer’s son

Mason Taylor saw his father ended his own eyes and dreams of football to finish a Hall of Fame career.

Now, Jason Taylor’s son, New York Jets, has the opportunity to draft the second round of LSU with renowned bloodline and have an instant impact on the NFL.

With the opportunity to move away from a large shade.

Mason Taylor on Friday acknowledged after the first practice of Ruqi Minicamp Jets, “Of course there is high expectations, only because of the last name”. “But I mean, when people say, ‘Oh, let her do her shiny,’ You know, ‘stop saying her father’s name,’ I mean, I love it. We are family. ‘

During a 15-year career, his father was one of the best passes of NFL, Rasar, with 139 1/2 carrier sack. Three of them were included in Miami with three seasons, a season with Washington and a 20 -year season for Jets – the last New York played.

Several pictures of Mason Taylor – then 6 years old – he has been on social media over the past few weeks, including a green and white no. 99 jersey in Jets practice and games. Mark Sanchez is celebrating his 7th birthday while wearing Mark Sanchez Jersey.

“Yes, I mean, looking at the pictures and now here,” Taylor is now at number 46 with Jets, “” Of course a paradise moment. “

His uncle is Mason’s mother Zach Thomas and Famer’s Pro football. He was also Jason’s long -time teammate with dolphins.

“I mean, I want to be like them,” said Mason. “So, you can call it ‘in their shadow’, but I prefer to model their games after their hard work i

“I’m definitely looking at these boys.”

Jason Taylor became sensitive shortly after his son’s draft, how it would look like when he saw Mason playing in the NFL while wiping tears while making a video call with journalists.

Before reporting for the Ruki camp with The Young Tight and Jets, he received some suggestions from his famous father.

On Thursday, Mason Taylor recalled, “He shot me yesterday yesterday, the first day of our today’s first day,” and this is what I did my whole life last night – just one day, once a practice at once, a workout at once.

“So really just your legs are where the stacking days and it will show your continuity and then it will also believe from the coaches and players” “

Taylor’s LSU had 129 catches for 1,308 yards and six TDs in three seasons, establishing itself as one of the most productive tight ends in school history and one of the top players in the country. This season, Jets will be counted to add another passing option for Justin Fields for the new face of Jets.

The Tight Ends Group in New York includes Jeremy Rockart, Jack Kuntz, Neil Johnson and Stone Smart, but Taylor could see significant snaps as a camouflage.

Taylor said, “Here with my opportunity and the coaches are bringing me and believing in me as part of their program they only spoke to the confidence they had confidently.” “And just for the minicamp I came to the field and showed it in meetings and weight rooms and it certainly showed what I am looking forward to”
