Phillip Dorsett, a free-agent wide receiver, eyes chance to be a starter

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- Wide receiver Phillip Dorsett endeared himself to coach Bill Belichick and many in the New England Patriots organization over the past two seasons, and the feeling is mutual as Dorsett has positive things to say about the experience.

As for what that means in free agency, Dorsett isn't sure.

"They obviously traded for me two years ago. They took me in and I loved my experience in New England. They made [me] a way better football player than I was before. I learned so much," he told ESPN.com, reflecting on being swapped by the Indianapolis Colts for quarterback Jacoby Brissett in September 2017.
