Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jakeem Grant hasn’t been able to create the level of production that he seems to be physically capable of as an NFL wide receiver, but there is no denying that he is still the team’s most dangerous threat in the open field. Grant, who has to this point made the majority of his impact as a returner (4 career return touchdowns), could be aligned for a big breakout this season if he’s able to stay healthy.
Grant has finished each of the last two seasons on injured reserve — so that is a big “if”. But Miami would sure love to see a full season of a healthy Grant, given that his elite long speed and high amount of short area quickness figure to translate well to new offensive coordinator Chan Gailey’s offensive system.
Grant has been hard at work to get back to full health and to also prove that he is a wide receiver first and foremost this offseason — and after seeing the Dolphins’ latest tease for training camp, there’s nothing we’d like to see more than Grant live up to his athletic potential.
Grant’s friendship with WR DeVante Parker makes them one of the most entertaining duos on the roster — the two recently went head to head on the Dolphins’ social accounts for a game of trivia, which did not disappoint. And if the pair can become as entertaining on the field as they are off it and on the practice fields, the Dolphins will definitely have themselves a successful passing offense in 2020.
Dolphins veterans, including both Parker and Grant, are in the building today for Miami as the team continues to lay the foundation for the 2020 NFL season.
