Seahawks make signing of wide receiver Phillip Dorsett II official

The Seattle Seahawks have officially announced the signing of former first-round pick, wide receiver Phillip Dorsett II.

The Seattle Seahawks have officially announced the signing of Phillip Dorsett II to bolster the wide receiving corps. Dorsett and Seattle had initially come to terms last week, according to a number of reports.

Dorsett was originally selected in the first round at No. 29 overall by the Colts in the 2015 NFL Draft out of Miami. He spent two years in Indianapolis before he was traded to New England, where he played for the last three seasons.

For the Patriots in 2019, Dorsett started four of fourteen games played, logging 29 receptions for 397 yards and five touchdowns, which were a career-high.

In Dorsett, the Seahawks have a solid No. 3 option in the wide receiver room behind starters Tyler Lockett and DK Metcalf.

The Seahawks have been fairly active throughout the first couple of weeks of free agency. You can follow all of Seattle’s moves via our live tracker, which is updated regularly with reports and the most recent signings.
