The Jacksonville Jaguars added a wide receiver Monday, signing Phillip Dorsett, according to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler.
WR Phillip Dorsett is signing with the Jaguars, per source. Urban Meyer wants speed and gets it.

Dorsett, 28, was a first-round pick of the Colts in 2015. He played two years with the Colts and three with the Patriots before signing with the Seahawks last offseason. He landed on injured reserve in September and never played for Seattle.
Jaguars snag Phillip Dorsett in free agency
Fantasy slant: The Jaguars entered the offseason with only D.J. Chark and Laviska Shenault as entrenched pieces in the receiver room. Collin Johnson flashed down the stretch but still needs to show more to be counted on as a consistent contributor in 2021. Signing Dorsett adds a speed element to the Jacksonville wideout room with his ability to stretch the field. This is likely a better real-life signing that holds little value for fantasy football. — Derek Brown
