It looks like former Jacksonville Jags running back Fred Taylor will be finishing his National Football League career in New England — where all good veteran players go to end their time in the NFL. All partial kidding aside, it’s really a perfect fit. Fred still has some tread left and won’t be expected to shoulder the workload. He’ll share time in a currently crowded backfield with Laurence Maroney, BenJarvus Green-Ellis, Kevin Faulk and Sammy Morris and contribute maybe 10 touches each week. And that’s on a good week. Plus his leadership and knowledge of the game will pay huge dividends to the team. Fred spent the first 11 years of his career with the Jags.
