The Miami Dolphins have worked out former Florida Gator Chad Jackson and may offer him a contract.

Jackson was recently cut by the New England Patriots after he caught just 13 passes in 14 games in 2006 ... and didn't catch a pass in an injury-plagued 2007. No one picked him up off of waivers due to him being in the middle of a four year deal. Now, with no contract glued to him, Miami is interested.

And well they should be. Miami isn't very deep at receiver right now. Ted Ginn, a second year player, is their main guy. After that is ... uh ... hmmm ... oh, Greg Camarillo! Oh ... and Devone Bess! Did I mention Ernest Wilford? How could I forget Derek Hagan?

The point is that there is no risk bringing Jackson in for a look-see. He's a big, speedy receiver who had a decent preseason. He's familiar with the AFC East and would have a good chance to pick up some playing time.
