NFL Looks Into Allegation Taylor Spit on Player
By Jason La Canfora
Washington Post Staff Writer
Wednesday, November 17, 2004; Page D04
The NFL is investigating allegations that Washington Commanders safety Sean Taylor spit on a player during Sunday's 17-10 loss to Cincinnati, league sources said, while an earlier fine levied against the rookie for missing part of a mandatory symposium has been lowered after an arbitration hearing.
Taylor, the fifth overall pick from Miami who has had repeated off-field incidents since being drafted -- including an arrest for driving under the influence last month -- could face another fine for unsportsmanlike conduct if the league determines he spat on Bengals wide receiver T.J. Houshmandzadeh.
Cincinnati Coach Marvin Lewis stated during his Monday news conference that one of his players was spat upon in the game, but would not name either party involved. Houshmandzadeh got into a physical altercation with Taylor at one point and called him a "punk" to reporters after the game. Sources said the NFL is aware of the claims and, as it does with every game, is watching tape of the game to determine if additional disciplinary actions are necessary.
Given the nature of the allegations it may be difficult to adequately gauge whether Taylor did in fact spit. The league usually issues fines and suspensions late in the week after the review is complete.
Taylor has not spoken to the media since being arrested for driving under the influence on Oct. 28 and, when approached to comment about Houshmandzadeh on Monday, again declined to comment.
Taylor initially got into trouble with the league when he left this summer's rookie symposium without permission and originally was fined $20,000. Taylor appealed and the fine was lowered to $12,500, sources said. Taylor also will have to report to league headquarters in New York at some point for a full-day remedial session to cover the aspects of the seminar that he missed during his absence.
Taylor's brief tenure in Washington has been filled with turmoil as he fired his agents twice -- causing a delay in initial contract negotiations with the Commanders -- then rehired his original agent, Drew Rosenhaus, shortly after signing his deal because he believed he could have gotten more money. Taylor already has initiated two media boycotts and was suspended for one game after his DUI arrest; he will appear in court next month.
