Breaking: Jason Taylor announces Jimmy Johnson will be HOF presenter

Jason Taylor could have selected many friends or family to present him into the Hall of Fame but instead he decided to elect former coach Jimmy Johnson to do the honor. Johnson drafted Taylor in the 3rd round of the 1997 NFL Draft.

Johnson would coach Taylor for two seasons before abruptly resigning following the 1999 season, two years after drafting Taylor. Taylor took to Twitter to announce his choice.

Taylor will be a first time HOF ballot inductee and will be enshrined during the Hall of Fame ceremonies in Canton, Oh. on August 5th. Taylor will be joined by Cowboys owner Jerry Jones (this should be good), Kenny Easley, Terrell Davis, Morten Anderson, Kurt Warner, and LaDanian Tomlinson.
