Instead of participating in voluntary workouts and team practices this spring, Redskins safety Sean Taylor has been spending his off-season in his native Miami, Florida much to the chagrin of his teammates and head coach Joe Gibbs<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The former Miami Hurricane has expressed his desire for a new contract but fellow teammate and friend Clinton Portis has stated that Taylor just wants time away from football after a rookie season plagued with off-the-field issues.<\/p>\n

Taylor\u2019s time away from Redskins Park has proved costly, as he turned himself in to Miami-Dade County Police Department Saturday night after being charged with aggravated assault and simple battery.<\/p>\n

The incident occurred Wednesday morning at about 1:00 A.M. Reportedly, Taylor pointed a gun at a person over a dispute involving two all-terrain vehicles which he claimed were stolen. After leaving the scene Taylor returned about 10 minutes later and became involved in an altercation in which Taylor punched one person.<\/p>\n

Taylor was released on $16,500 bond on Sunday. An arraignment date will be set later. The Redskins announced Monday that Taylor will be excused from the upcoming mini-camp to try and sort out his affairs.<\/p>\n

Taylor was selected 5th overall by the Redskins in the 2004 NFL Draft. He posted 89 tackles, four interceptions, two forced fumbles, and one sack during his first NFL season.<\/p>\n
