Taylor’s father is Hall of Fame defensive end Jason Taylor and his uncle is Hall of Fame linebacker Zach Thomas. He has been competing with Jeremy Ruckert for the starting job in training camp.
Glenn also provided injury updates for defensive tackle Byron Cowart (ankle), edge rusher Will McDonald (back spasms) and backup quarterback Tyrod Taylor (knee).
Cowart and McDonald both left Tuesday’s practice session, the former on a cart. Tyrod Taylor has missed practice but Glenn said the injury isn’t believed to be serious.
