SATURDAY SPOTLIGHT: Mason Taylor Follows In Large Footsteps

Larry Blustein July 3, 2021 @ 08:03 AM

Our objective during the summer months, leading up to the 2021 season is to ensure that you will always have something fresh to check out. From our TEAM PREVIEWS to daily prospect watch blogs, we have you covered. But we wanted to add a FREE blog each weekend to show those who are NOT subscribers exactly the things that you miss every day. NOBODY can provide you the daily content and social media exposure that promotes and just does not follow. What we are going to bring your way is a look at a football talent that may not be a household word, but should be! We hope you enjoy this something extra that will bring you back to not only check out our website, but also our social media on Twitter – where everyone is interactive (@PrepRedzoneFL). THE TAYLOR FILE Mason Taylor Mason Taylor 6'4" | 230 lbs | TE Fort Lauderdale | 2022 FL POSITION: TE CLASS: 2022 SCHOOL: Fort Lauderdale St. Thomas Aquinas HEIGHT: 6-5 WEIGHT: 230 HEAD COACH: Roger Harriott WHAT ARE COACHES MISSING: If you happen to be the son of a professional football player, the pressure to live up to what they did is always present. But what about a Hall of Famer? For Isaiah Taylor (a freshman at the University of Arizona) and his younger brother Mason, who is a senior tight end at Fort Lauderdale St. Thomas Aquinas, having a dad who is a Hall of Fame defensive end, is never easy. Add in the fact that the dad, Jason Taylor, is the Defensive Coordinator for the two-time defending 7A state champion Raiders, and all bets are off. Jason Taylor the Hall of Famer, who spent most of his brilliant career with the Miami Dolphins, expects no less from his own kids than he does for his team, which is rated nationally once again as the 2021 season is coming closer. What Mason Taylor Mason Taylor 6'4" | 230 lbs | TE Fort Lauderdale | 2022 FL has become is a big-time prospect. A 6-5, 230-pounder, who can do it all – and with offers from Pittsburgh, Alabama, Auburn and Arizona – this is someone who has a chance to be very special. Just like any other member of the team, Mason has worked hard to put himself in a position, where he is going to be one of the catalysts in a season that will be loaded with competition and providing several forums for him to further put himself out there. Like every other member of the St. Thomas Aquinas program, there is no special treatment. In fact, his dad is always finding ways to slow his own son down during scrimmages. After all, what would you expect from a Taylor family that has always achieved with hard work and dedication being the road to success.
