Who Should I Start? Nick Westbrook-Ikhine or Pat Bryant

Tuesday, March 11, 7:27 PM

Former Tennessee Titans wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine has signed a two-year contract with the Miami Dolphins. The agreement is worth $6.5 million, with $3.2 million guaranteed. Westbrook-Ikhine is coming off his best season as a pro in 2024. Despite not snagging his first catch until after the Titans' bye in Week 5, he'd go on to set career-highs with 497 yards and an impressive nine TDs. However, he posted just one game with more than three receptions. It's an interesting move for Miami, who continues to load up the offensive side of the ball. The 27-year-old's path to touches is not a clear one, as he'll vie for targets with fellow wideouts Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle, as well as Jonnu Smith, who broke out last season, leading the team in receptions (88).

The Denver Broncos agreed to a four-year rookie contract with third-round wide receiver Pat Bryant on Wednesday, a source told 9 News' Mike Klis. The Broncos selected the Illinois product with the 74th overall pick to give them more wideout depth behind WR1 Courtland Sutton in 2025 and beyond. It's another weapon for second-year quarterback Bo Nix, and the 22-year-old pass-catcher should give him a nice big target with a wide catch radius at 6-foot-2, 204 pounds. Bryant has drawn comparisons to former Saints receiver Michael Thomas, who had a nice history with head coach Sean Payton. He could have trouble separating from defensive backs in the NFL, but Bryant's production (17 touchdowns the last two years) speaks for itself. Bryant will most likely struggle for volume in 2025 as he competes with Marvin Mims Jr., Devaughn Vele and Troy Franklin.
