On Friday, Taylor along with the rest of the NFL fan base find out if longtime Dolphins teammate Zach Thomas joins Taylor in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
"If it wasn't for Zach Thomas, I wouldn't be in the Hall of Fame, so it's as simple as that. He was that dude for us. He got us all lined up, directed us forever, was the quarterback of our defense, the heart and soul of our team for many years," he said.
Former Dolphins head coach Jimmy Johnson was recently selected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame as well and Taylor was proud.
"It almost felt like Jimmy. When you saw him crying, I was sitting at home crying. I was texting him while David Baker was talking to him on air," he said.
