Football is a family business for Baltimore Ravens runing backs coach Willie Taggart, and part of that business is staying close to home. Last week, JT Taggart, the younger of Willie's two sons, committed to play college football nearby at Maryland. An imposing presence at 6-8, 229 pounds and an 81-inch wingspan, JT, who caught 21 passes for 304 yards and four touchdowns as a high school junior last season, should be a valuable asset at tight end for coach Mike Locksley and the Terrapins. With Willie speaking to the media during mandatory minicamp this week, the topic of his son's commitment was naturally going to come up.
