Former Vikings receiver Josh Doctson signs with Jets

Former Vikings wide receiver Josh Doctson has found a new team.

After finding some success with Kirk Cousins in Washington, wide receiver Josh Doctson reunited with his quarterback in Minnesota this season.

But the move didn’t go as planned, and now Doctson has found a new team.

The wide receiver has signed with the Jets after the Vikings released him in November.

After he signed a one-year deal with Minnesota, Doctson had to sit out much of last year due to injury. He played just one game and was not targeted.

The Redskins drafted Doctson in the first round of the 2016 draft. He had two seasons where he totaled more than 500 yards receiving. One of those seasons was when Cousins was still with the Redskins.

For a first round pick, the Redskins probably expected him to be near the 1,000 yard territory. He had eight touchdowns in his time with Washington as well. Maybe the Jets will be able to utilize some of Doctson’s untapped potential.
