Jason Taylor’s Viral MNF Suite Clip Involved His Wife, Not a 'Coldplay' Scandal

Outlets identified the woman as Monica Taylor, underscoring that the brief broadcast cut was an awkward moment rather than wrongdoing.

Overview

  • During Monday Night Football at Hard Rock Stadium, cameras briefly showed Jason Taylor in a VIP box as a woman rose from his lap, creating an awkward on-air moment that quickly circulated online.
  • Subsequent reports confirmed the woman was his wife, Monica Taylor, countering social-media speculation that drew comparisons to a prior 'Coldplay' kiss-cam saga.
  • ESPN’s announcers did not address the interaction, instead pointing out Taylor’s presence in the suite while the shot aired.
  • Monica Taylor is a former Miami Dolphins cheerleader, founder and creative director of the sleepwear brand Monuit, and vice president of the Jason Taylor Foundation.
  • Taylor attended the Jets–Dolphins game with added interest as a former player for both teams and to watch his son Mason, who had five catches for 65 yards in the Jets’ 27–21 loss.
