As a young boy, Sheldrick Redwine had Sean Taylor’s autograph given to him second hand. He still has it.Taylor was shot and killed a few years later, and Redwine made it a point to honor his childhood idol. He went to the University of Miami, like Taylor. He plays safety, like Taylor. And, two years ago, Redwine asked Taylor’s father to train him, like Taylor.Pete Taylor trained Sean and now privately trains other young players in South Florida.“It’s a therapy,’’ Pete Taylor told Mary Kay Cabot of cleveland.com. “To watch these other kids grow and get better, that’s all that counts.
