“It was an opportunity that really couldn’t be passed up,” said Taylor’s agent, Gary Wichard. “The tough part was talking Jason into it. But he will be a competitor and do what he can do.”

The show runs from March through May. Even if Taylor, 33, advances to the finals, he finish well in advance of training camp. Taylor will promote the appearance on Thursday’s airing of The Oprah Winfrey Show.
