Official Josh Doctson - WR - Redskins (2 Viewers)

[Biabreakable]

When the Vikings let Treadwell go just to take a look at this guy it seemed like as good a opportunity for Doctson as he could ask for. He gets to play with Cousins again for a team that had one of its starters injured so chance for some WR to step up in the meantime.

They kept Doctson on IR for awhile but when push came to shove they just brought Treadwell back instead because Doctson can't play at all.

Jets WR Josh Doctson has opted out of the 2020 NFL season. 

Doctson was among a handful of players who opted out just before the 4 p.m. deadline. A former first round pick, Doctson would not have been a fantasy factor this season barring a rash of Gang Green wideout injuries. Doctson played in one game for the Vikings last year after three disappointing seasons in Washington.

Please change the title its offensive. Not the "Redskins" part but the "Doctson" part....this guy sucks

Shouldn't be much of a surprise: Doctson already opted out of the last four seasons

I'm actually pretty surprised by this type of opt-out. This was a great opportunity for Doctson to rekindle some sort of spark to his career. Unless he has extenuating family circumstances it certainly looks questionable that he didn't have confidence that he would play a big part competing with Perriman and Mims(with no training camp) for outside WR reps in that offense.

Post of the day IMO.

And hence why all Redskins watchers were quick to say he sucked and MIN had nothing here.  MIN fans see what the national media says.  1st round pick, blah, blah.  We in DC know he hates to get hit, he can't separate, and he finds plenty of injuries that nobody on the training staff can find.  If it was touch football, you'd want Doctson.  But if there's a chance for contact, you can be assured he'll find a way to be unavailable.

Looks like others had seen it, but Doctson opted out.  Ha.  See above from last year.  No heart.  Wrong sport for a wimp.
