Dolphins' Taylor needs sack to climb all-time list

By Nick St. Denis

Miami Dolphins linebacker Jason Taylor needs one more sack to move up the all-time list.

Taylor is at 136.5 career sacks, one behind John Randle and Richard Dent, who are tied for sixth-most. If Taylor can get five more, he would tie Michael Strahan in getting into the top five.

Taylor has previously said he doesn't pay attention to the list, but he's probably champing at the bit for a sack, especially after not recording a tackle the last two games following a sack in each of the two games prior.

The 15-year veteran, who is on a one-year contract with Miami, has four sacks this season.
