Great gesture by CP. Hes my favorite player in the league and that is great respect right there. I hate when people say Portis is a scrub and not a good guy. Portis is great. Awesome Gesture and I wish the Skins well the rest of the season.
RIP!

:D Here, here.

That put a smile on my face for the first time today.
Words can't express the loss I feel in my heart.

R.I.P. # 21

We will always remember you.

Sean Taylor was known for his hard hits.

His hardest hit will always be the day that he was taken from us.

I wonder if they will eventually retire it or at least put it on the "unoffical" retired number list.

I hope so. I love that CP is going to wear it as a tribute to his good friend, but I can't imagine any other Redskin ever wearing it.

If anyone has a link or proof, I would appreciate it if it could be posted here.

I don't think they have any say in the matter. 21 is a perfectly valid number for a RB. I don't think he'll have Taylor's name on the back, so it's not a uniform violation.
