Giants legend Lawrence Taylor is regarded as one of the greatest, if not the undisputed best, defensive players in NFL history. While that’s a sentiment the three-time Defensive Player of the Year shares, he also has profound respect and admiration for some of the game’s other great defenders.
Appearing on the I Am Athlete podcast this week, Taylor was asked by host Brandon Marshall whom he ranks as the top five defensive players of all time. After a few moments, L.T. revealed the following group:
1. Lawrence Taylor, LB
2. Reggie White, DE
3. Deacon Jones, DE
4. Deion Sanders, CB
5. Ronnie Lott, CB/S
