In July 2008, the Miami Dolphins traded defensive end Jason Taylor to the Washington Redskins for multiple draft Picks.  Taylor still had two more years on his contract worth an estimated $16 million.  Taylor injured his knee and is released following his first season with the Redskins.  He had been contracted to earn more than $8 million this season with the redskins.
