Jets, Seahawks, Chargers, 49ers & Raiders Interested In WR Phillip Dorsett

According to Josina Anderson, the Jets, Seahawks, Chargers, 49ers and Raiders have all showed preliminary interest in pending Patriots free agent WR Phillip Dorsett.

Dorsett is testing the market after the Patriots have seemingly decided to let him hit free agency. Finding a clear role and starting job appears to be a priority for him. 

“I just want to come in and have a great opportunity to play and showcase how I can really flourish as a player,” he tells Anderson. 

Dorsett, 27, is a former first-round pick by the Colts in the 2015 NFL Draft. The Patriots acquired him from the Colts in exchange for QB Jacoby Brissett.

Dorsett played out the final year of a four-year, $8.135 million rookie contract and was testing the open market as an unrestricted free agent for the first time in his NFL career last year when he re-signed with New England on a one-year deal. 

In 2019, Dorsett appeared in 14 games for the Patriots and caught 29 passes for 397 yards and five touchdowns. He also carried the ball three times for 21 yards.
