Jacoby Brissett Signing With Miami Dolphins

     Former local high school football quarterback Jacoby Brissett will be signing one-year contract with the Miami Dolphins. The deal is expected to be at $5 million. 
     Brissett played high school football with the Dwyer Panthers. He helped them capture the FHSAA Class 4A state championship in 2009. 
     He went to the University of Florida in 2011 and participated there for two seasons. Brissett eventually transferred to North Carolina State in 2013 and stayed there for three years.
     Brissett was selected by the New England Patriots in the third round of the 2016 NFL Draft. The team ended up winning Super Bowl LI in his only season with that club. 
     He was traded to the Indianapolis Colts on September 2, 2017 for former St. Thomas Aquinas wide receiver Phillip Dorsett. Brissett threw for 3,098 yards in 2017 and 2,942 yards in 2019.
