""I love that part of it. I think that's one of the things that people take for granted. How much Sean meant to him, how much Sean still means to him. And it's just going to be a way he could continue that progression of kind of wanting to follow in those footsteps.""
""Gabe was 6 when his brother was killed. Sean was shot in the upper thigh after confronting a group of intruders at his home on Nov. 26, 2007, in Miami. His femoral artery was severed, causing massive blood loss.""
Gabe Taylor is preparing for an emotional home opener with the DC Defenders against the Houston Gamblers. His brother, Sean, played for the Washington Redskins and his legacy influences Gabe deeply. Sean's No. 21 is retired, and Gabe wears the same number for the Defenders. Sean was tragically killed in 2007, and Gabe, who was only six at the time, carries lessons from that experience into his own career. The upcoming game at Audi Field holds special meaning for him as he continues to honor his brother's memory.
