In his 11th season in the NFL, Taylor will play for his fifth team after stints with the Houston Texans, Los Angeles Chargers, Cleveland Browns and Buffalo Bills since being drafted by the Baltimore Ravens.
According to a report from ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the deal for the 32-year-old includes $8.5m in guaranteed money.
