The Jags inked former Rams wide receiver Torry Holt to a three-year deal. Jacksonville has lacked a suitable wide receiver since the days of Jimmy Smith and Keenan McCardell. The 33-year old Holt, who caught 64 balls for 796 yards and three touchdowns last season, will bring a tremendous reputation with him…and a questionable right knee.
Holt’s health is one of the big reasons he has been out on the market since being released by the Rams in March. He visited Tennessee earlier in the month and was also drawing interest from San Francisco. In the end though, he’ll catch passes from David Garrard.
It’s an upgrade for Jacksonville in name but can Holt squeeze another productive season out his battle-weary body? I’m guessing that will be not be easy.
