Wide receiver Jalen Reagor‘s career has not gone according to plan, but another team will give the former first-round pick a chance. The Dolphins announced they have signed Reagor to an undisclosed deal and waived safety/linebacker Jordan Colbert with a failed physical designation.
Owners of the 21st selection in the 2020 draft, the Eagles chose Reagor and left fellow receiver Justin Jefferson on the board. It quickly became apparent general manager Howie Roseman made a mistake. Jefferson, who went 22nd overall to the Vikings, has been one of the premier wideouts in the league throughout his career. Reagor, on the other hand, has never put it together in stints with the Eagles (2020-21), Vikings (2022, when he was teammates with Jefferson), Patriots (2023) and Chargers (2024). He has totaled just 86 catches and four touchdowns in 64 regular-season games.
After an eight-game, seven-catch 2024, the Chargers brought Reagor back for a second year last season. However, the 5-foot-11, 197-pounder ended up among the Chargers’ final cuts in late August. While they re-signed Reagor to their practice squad, they released him for good in October. He didn’t get into any games in 2025.
Last season’s Chargers had a more talented receiving corps than the Dolphins’ current group, which could give the 27-year-old Reagor a better chance to earn a roster spot. The rebuilding Dolphins traded No. 1 option Jaylen Waddle to the Broncos for three draft picks, including a 2026 first-rounder (which became cornerback Chris Johnson), leaving them with no proven starters. Along with Reagor, they have given short-term free agent contracts to Tutu Atwell, Jalen Tolbert and Terrace Marshall. Holdover Malik Washington, third-rounders Caleb Douglas and Chris Bell, and fifth-rounder Kevin Coleman Jr. are also among the pass catchers in the mix.
Reagor’s pact with the Dolphins will reunite him with pass game coordinator Kevin Patullo, who held the same position in Philadelphia in the receiver’s last year with the team (2021). While Reagor set career highs in catches (33) and touchdowns (two) then, he has not approached those modest numbers in any season since.
Good luck with that. Reagor is probably Howie Roseman’s worst pick in 15 years. I can’t believe people are still giving him a chance.
Did Howie draft Danny Watkins? He might have been worse as far as first rounders go.
Lol I love how so many of you forget some of the absolutely atrocious picks Howie has made since 2010.
I could name countless examples.
Ah yes. Jalen Reagor or as I like to call him Howie you should have taken Justin Jefferson
it seems like he’s been around forever
What a lackluster WR room. Maybe one of these guys pops but idk
Tolbert, like Atwell, have ability. Can they stay healthy and consistent? Hopefully they work hard with Willis all summer
They should try to get Boutte. Or make a call for Deebo or Diggs or Dhop
I dont think winning is a priority this year
All Jon Sullivan is doing is signing scrubs from other Teams with ZERO Stubs to go with Achane.
As a 50+ Year Dolphins Fan I have extremely low expectations for the 2026 Dolphins because I expect Additions that will make the Team better & not worse & so far all Sullivan has done is make the Team worse.
Tutu Atwell could finally have a breakout year on this team given the complete lack of competition for catches.
We all know the kid is talented, and physically gifted.
