We’ve got a Josh Doctson sighting. The wideout auditioned for the Cardinals yesterday, per Aaron Wilson (on Twitter). Doctson apparently left Arizona without a deal, but that doesn’t mean he couldn’t be an option down the road.
Doctson has struggled to live up to his first-round draft status, but he’s still managed to stick around the NFL. He got a contract from the Jets last offseason, but he ultimately decided to sit out for the 2020 campaign. He stayed on the Jets offseason roster for a few months before getting cut by the organization in May.
While the receiver obviously put up disappointing numbers during his stint in Washington, there was some hope that he could stick around the NFL following 2017 and 2018 seasons where he averaged 39.5 receptions, 517 receiving yards, and four touchdowns per season. However, Doctson has only seen the field for one regular season game since 2019, putting his NFL future in doubt.
The Cardinals have a deep grouping of wideouts, but the team could temporarily use some help at the position. Veterans DeAndre Hopkins and A.J. Green are dealing with minor ailments, while Andy Isabella is currently on the COVID-19 list.
Guy has been a sever underachiever and looks slow on the field. Big disappointment
He’s almost as worthless as Kevin White.
Don’t you mean Josh NISSAN ??
Should the Cardinals reach an agreement with Josh,
they are planning on getting Lacquan Treadwell so the two can be paired up.
Another B-U-S-T
Since Doctson didn’t want to play football for $4 million+/season what has persuaded teams that he would want to play football well for $700,000/year.
Why did Docston play so poorly back then if he still wants to walk a football field? He could be pulling down $8 million/season if he would play up to his ability, not risking his health for under a million. Short-sighted fool.
Should either abandon football or go all-in.
You know, you really shouldn’t be revealing the details of your discussions with a patient like this. Therapists are bound by rules of confidentiality.
Oh, wait, you’re NOT Josh Doctson’s therapist? Funny, I thought Carnac the Magnificent was retired when Johnny Carson stepped down from the Tonight Show.
So two things about Josh Docston…
1) He has not played with a QB not named Kirk Cousins.
2) Wonder why Sean McVay has not brought him in. As a rookie, Sean used him to stretch the field in Washington.
He played 15 games of the 2018 season with quarterbacks named Alex Smith, Josh Johnson, Colt McCoy and Mark Sanchez.
