The Chargers are in the market for a third wide receiver to go along with Keenan Allen and Mike Williams.
Los Angeles might be looking to solidify that via free agency.
According to ESPN’s Josina Anderson, former Patriots wideout Phillip Dorsett said that the Bolts are among five teams that have shown early interest in him.
“I just want to come in and have a great opportunity to play and showcase how I can really flourish as a player,” Dorsett told Anderson.
There’s one element that the Bolts could be honing in on when it comes to the next player they bring in and that’s speed, which is something that the former Miami product brings to the table.
Coming out of college, Dorsett ran a blazing 4.33 40-yard dash.
Dorsett played his first two professional seasons with the Colts and the last three with New England.
In three seasons with the Patriots, Dorsett amassed 73 catches for 881 yards and eight touchdowns.
Even though it might be a smarter route to address the position in the draft where it’s one of the deepest groups, Dorsett likely wouldn’t cost that much to sign.
