According to Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald, the Miami Dolphins have made it clear where Jason Taylor stands.

Not only was Taylor, who re-signed with the Dolphins last week, told that he would be a "situational" player, who plays 20 to 25 snaps per game, but he was told that he's not guaranteed a roster spot if he doesn't outperform other (younger) players.

Taylor, who was the NFL Defensive Player of the Year in 2006, had an injury-shortened season with the Washington Redskins last year. In 13 games, Taylor had 29 tackles and 3 1/2 sacks with Washington.

After being released from the 'Skins due to his lack of commitment to their off-season program, Taylor will participate in the Dolphins' off-season program.

Taylor holds the Dolphins' records for sacks in a season (18 1/2 in 2002) and a career (117). He is also fourth all-time in games played (172) in the franchise behind Dan Marino (242), Bob Kuechenberg (196) and Nat Moore (183).
