Teammate on Dorsett: ‘He’s ready. He’s arrived.’

At first Mike Adams wasn’t buying. Fast? That’s all anyone talked about with this kid. He’s fast. Really fast. But Adams knows fast. He’s been an NFL safety for 11 years. He practices against T.Y. Hilton every day. This kid, this rookie out of Miami, that everyone was gushing over? Nothing special, Adams figured. Nothing he hadn’t seen before.

“When I first saw him on tape, I was like, ‘No, he’s not that fast,’” Adams said. “I honestly said that.”

Then he saw Phillip Dorsett run through a drill at practice. Then he changed his mind.
