Taylor, surely, isn't shattered up about it. "I don't wonder or doubt," Taylor said Saturday night in Nashville. "I'm just going to do what I do: practice and work hard. And whatever they do, they're going to do. I can't control it." Taylor was disappointed that he dressed for Saturday's game against the Tennessee Titans. "I practiced all week, thinking I'm going to play today. So, they could have gave me the heads up sooner," he said. any thoughts that the Phins might pick him up? I believe he has more upside than LJ Title: Re: Chester Taylor Cut by the Bears???

I know he hasn't had much practice or anything but I figured that was the perfect time to see if he still had anything.

Post by: MikeO on August 29, 2011, 05:33:15 pm LJ will be gone by the end of this week. We will keep Bush, Thomas, Hillard, Clay, and maybe Polite. That's it!
I would be shocked if we carry a 4th RB. Especially one that doesn't play special teams. Chester and LJ don't play special teams |
