Jason Taylor is celebrated as one of the finest players in Miami Dolphins history, having spent over a decade with the team. However, his allegiance has shifted as he prepares to support the New York Jets following the team’s selection of his son, Mason Taylor, during the 2025 NFL Draft. As the Jets required a boost to their offense while transitioning from quarterback Aaron Rodgers, they chose Mason, a tight end from LSU, with the 42nd pick. Family and friends gathered at the draft party to share in the joy, and Jason participated in a spirited chant of “J-E-T-S! JETS! JETS! JETS!”.

A proud father, Jason’s enthusiasm for his son’s new team is unmistakable. Despite his past ties to the Dolphins, it seems this new connection with the Jets will endure long-term. As Mason embarks on his professional journey, both he and his father embrace this turning point with excitement.
