NFL Notes: Steven Jackson, Chargers, Dolphins, & Jets

Steven Jackson

  • Free agent RB Steven Jackson attempted to get the Cowboys attention on Twitter Thursday by posting a picture of the teamโ€™s stadium.

Chargers

Dolphins

Dolphins executive Mike Tannenbaum told reporters on Thursday that plan to take a look at their current group of offensive linemen before considering a free agent addition such as G Evan Mathis.

โ€œWe are happy with what we have,โ€ Tannenbaum said. โ€œPhilosophically, when the right player comes along weโ€™ll pursue him. [But] weโ€™re happy with our roster.โ€

According to Barry Jackson, the Dolphins likely would only consider signing Mathis if their young guards struggle in training camp and Mathis is willing to accept โ€œwell belowโ€ what heโ€™s currently asking for.

Jets

Jets DE Muhammad Wilkerson reported for the start of training camp, but added that his contract situation is still โ€œa little frustrating.โ€

โ€œIt is a little frustrating, but at the end of the day I am happy to be out here with my teammates and get the season going,โ€ Wilkerson said, via ESPN.com.

Even so, Wilkerson said he plans to focus on the 2015 season.

โ€œIโ€™m going to focus on the season,โ€ Wilkerson said. โ€œIt is my job to be competitive with my teammates and get ready for games on Sundays. I donโ€™t want to worry about contract situations. That is a distraction for myself as well as my teammates.
