Who is Monica Taylor? Jason Taylor’s wife ‘Coldplay Moment’ on MNF Broadcast Goes Viral

Former Miami Dolphins star Jason Taylor and his wife Monica Taylor became the center of social media chatter after a viral video from the Monday Night Football (MNF) broadcast. The camera caught the couple in a private moment inside a VIP box at Hard Rock Stadium during the Jets vs. Dolphins game.

The Viral ‘Coldplay Moment’

In the clip, Monica Taylor can be seen quickly moving off Jason Taylor’s lap just as the broadcast camera zoomed into the VIP area. Jason looked visibly awkward, while Monica adjusted herself.

The video spread rapidly online, with many users calling it Jason Taylor’s “Coldplay moment,” a phrase inspired by another viral incident where a couple was caught on camera during a Coldplay concert.

One user joked: “Did Jason Taylor just get Coldplayed?” Another quipped: “Jason Taylor tried to act like it was his sister—bro, we’re not buying it.”

Unlike past viral scandals involving alleged affairs, this moment was far from controversial, since the woman in the video was his wife.

Monica Taylor, formerly known as Monica Laurent, is a former Miami Dolphins cheerleader. She performed with the team from 2013 to 2017. The couple met during her cheerleading days and later tied the knot on August 18, 2020.

Social Media Reactions

The video sparked hundreds of reactions on Twitter/X, Instagram, and TikTok. While some fans laughed it off as a harmless couple’s moment, others turned it into memes.
