During a Trump rally at Wildwood, New Jersey, on Saturday, NFL Hall of Fame linebacker Lawrence Taylor said he had “always been a Democrat until” he met former President Donald Trump.
“I just wanted to say, I grew up a Democrat and I’ve always been a Democrat until I met this man right here,” Taylor said pointing to Trump behind him. “He will not have to worry about nobody in my family ever voting for a Democrat again.”
Before leaving the NFL, Taylor was the NFL’s Defensive Player of the Year three times, according to Fox News.
During his time in the NFL, Taylor also went on to win two Super Bowls and received the title of the Most Valuable Player for the 1986 NFL season, according to the outlet.
