Redskins Legends Sean Taylor And Joe Gibbs Will Have Streets Named After Them At The Washington Headquarters



Washington players will now have a reminder of Sean Taylor every time they drive into work after the team announced it will be renaming a street after the legendary safety near its practice facility.

The team announced the planned honor on Tuesday, saying the street will be renamed to “Sean Taylor Road”.

The team also says it’ll rename a road near its franchise headquarters after legendary head coach Joe Gibbs \with owner Dan Snyder saying the two moves are all part of major efforts to rebrand the organization.

“The renaming of these streets along with all of the changes being made to our stadium are just part of our long-term goal of improving every element of the Washington Football Team, both off and on the field,” Snyder said.

Taylor was a 1st round pick in the 2004 NFL Draft, and was establishing himself as the best safety in the league prior to a tragic shooting that got him killed during a home invasion in 2007.
