"Longtime Jets hater Jason Taylor said his feelings toward the organization softened after spending one season with the team.

Taylor, who is back with the Dolphins, faces the Jets on Monday night. He told the Sun-Sentinel he can put his feelings aside once the game starts.

"The rivalry is still there. I understand who I play for. But do I view the [Jets] organization a little differently? Actually, I do see them in a very different light having been around some of the people," Taylor said. "But again, on Sunday it's the opponent, the enemy, the rival. The fire is still there to beat them.""
