MIAMI (AP) – Greg Jennings has played in 10 postseason games, or 10 more than most of his new teammates with the Miami Dolphins, and he’s eager to help lead them to some success in January.
The two-time Pro Bowl receiver said Thursday he’s comfortable in the leadership role. He signed an $8 million, two-year contract Wednesday with the Dolphins, and he’ll fill a void among the wideouts by providing a veteran presence.
The team’s other top receivers are Jarvis Landry, 22, and newcomer Kenny Stills, 23.
Jennings, a nine-year veteran, led the Minnesota Vikings last season with 59 catches for 742 yards and six touchdowns. He has 63 regular-season touchdown receptions, and scored twice to help the Green Bay Packers beat the Pittsburgh Steelers in the 2011 Super Bowl.
