2 years ago to the day, Redskins all-pro safety Sean Taylor died from critical injuries from gunshot wounds after a bunch of teenage nobodies broke into his home. He was 24.

The following game against the Bills, the Redskins put together this video and played it before kickoff in front of 90,000 fans at FedEx Field:

Subsequently, Washington played its first defensive snap with only 10 men in his honor. Following the regular season, he became the first player named to the Pro Bowl posthumously.

Rest in Peace Sean Michael Maurice Taylor. Receivers will always hear your footsteps.
