When Jamar Taylor first arrived in Cleveland this past spring after three years in Miami, he described it as a fresh start. The Browns cornerback might now call it home for the foreseeable future after a breakout season.
It didn’t take long for Taylor, whom the Browns acquired from the Dolphins in exchange for a seventh-round draft pick, to show why he was a second-round pick back in 2013.
Taylor recorded 57 tackles, 13 pass breakups and three interceptions in 15 games to emerge as one of the team’s rising defensive players amid an otherwise trying season.
