NFL: Redskins to move locker used by late Sean Taylor


Associated Press

ASHBURN, Va. — The Washington Redskins are moving the locker used by the late Sean Taylor.

The team announced Friday the locker will be moved from the Redskins Park training facility to the team's stadium, where it will be displayed for public view.

Taylor was shot to death at his home in Miami in November 2007. Shortly afterward, the Redskins sealed his locker behind Plexiglas, with his helmet, jersey, shoulder pads and other belongings inside.

General manager Bruce Allen says he realizes how much Taylor meant to the fans and that the team is "happy to be able to share this with them."
