To those of us on the outside, the Dolphins and receiver Greg Jennings seem like an obvious match this offseason.
The Dolphins desperately need another top receiver, Jennings has three 1,000-yard seasons, two Pro Bowls and a Super Bowl ring on his resume, he will be a free agent in March, the Packers seem content to let him walk, and the Dolphins coach, Joe Philbin, was his offensive coordinator for five years.
Jennings joined The Finsiders, the Dolphins team-owned radio/web TV show, on Friday at the Super Bowl media center. He looked right at the camera and had a message for Philbin:
Joe, how you doing. Remember me? he said with a smile.
Jennings, who turns 30 in September, said he realizes it may be time to move on from Green Bay.
Ive prepared my family for change, he said. Wherever I end up, if its outside of Green Bay, were ready to be great wherever we go
Jennings said he and Philbin developed a great relationship during their time together in Green Bay, and he caught 46 touchdowns in Philbins five years.
Hes one of my favorite coaches, Jennings said. Obviously he jokes a lot, little subtle things here and there, but hes a great coach to have. He was a great coach to play for. Hes one of those guys that you can have a relationship outside of football. As a player you admire a coach when he actually opens himself up like that.
