Redskins safety honors Sean Taylor with facemask


The 10th anniversary of former Redskins safety Sean Taylor's death was this week, and his memory will be visible throughout Washington's game against the Cowboys on Thursday.

Look no further than Redskins safety D.J. Swearinger.

For the game at Dallas, Swearinger taped his facemask to pay homage to the late Redskins star.

Taylor donned a similar look during his playing career, and as Swearinger told NFL Network's James Palmer, he watches Taylor's highlights before every game.

This game is part of the "My Cleats, My Cause" week for the NFL, and Swearinger honored his sisters and Taylor with his cleats.
