Monica Taylor Shares Behind-the-Scenes Moments from Monday Night Football
Monica Taylor, the wife of Jason Taylor, who was recently inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame, offered a glimpse into what fans missed during the ESPN broadcast of “Monday Night Football.”
Following a moment captured on camera where the couple displayed some affection, Monica posted some footage from the Dolphins’ 27-21 win over the Jets on September 29th.
During the game, the pair seemed a bit surprised when they were shown on the large screen, sitting together in a private suite at Hard Rock Stadium. Monica quickly stood up and shifted back to her seat, trying to shake off the unexpected moment.
Monica captioned her video, “Hubby was the honorary captain of the dolphins,” and included clips of herself and their son, Jordan, before the game started.
Both Monica and Jason are in their third season as defensive line coaches at Miami University. They attended the game to support their son, Mason Taylor, a rookie tight end for the Jets, against the teams they both starred for in the past.
Jason, a former NFL defensive player of the year with the Dolphins, shares custody of Mason along with his ex, as well as two other children, Isaiah and Zoe.
Monica and Jason, who are also vice presidents of the Jason Taylor Foundation, celebrated their fifth wedding anniversary this past August.
More video clips revealed that the suite was filled with an array of food and drinks.
“Mase had a great game!” Monica noted.
Mason finished with five receptions for 65 yards—definitely a highlight in his early career.
Interestingly, Monica chose not to address the viral moments from the video. Some viewers made comparisons to a past awkward moment during a Coldplay performance that had gone viral.
Jason’s younger sister, Joy Taylor, who previously hosted on Fox Sports, joked in the comments, saying, “I love watching you have a wonderful time with your husband.”
As for Jason, he hasn’t publicly commented on the situation.
He was a six-time Pro Bowl selection and was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2017, concluding his career in Miami in 2011.
