Taylor, who was acquired by the Redskins from the Miami Dolphins last month, was hurt midway through the second quarter. He will undergo an MRI exam on Sunday.
"The initial x-rays were negative about any serious damage," Washington coach Jim Zorn said. "We're going to get another MRI and we'll have a stronger evaluation."
A six-time Pro Bowl selection with the Dolphins, Taylor is attempting to make the transition from right defensive end to the left side.
"It was a scary moment for our team and most definitely for him," Redskins quarterback Jason Campbell said. "He is such a contributor to our team. Hopefully we can have him back real quick."
