Veteran wideout Phillip Dorestt, Super Bowl L3 champ with New England, just signed with the Raiders, reunited with ex-QB Tom Brady, now a minority owner. At 32, Dorestt hasn’t played since a brief 2023 stint with Denver, but his speed and past chemistry with Brady make this a bold move.
Could Phillip Dorestt reignite his form with Brady’s Raiders?
Phillip Dorestt spent three seasons catching passes from Brady in New England and even hoisted the Lombardi Trophy in Super Bowl L3. His career took him through Denver, Atlanta’s practice squad, and a return attempt with the raiders in 2023, though he didn’t make the final cut.
In 2022, with Houston, he reeled in 20 catches for 257 yards and a score, his best year since 2019. Now, with fresh familiarity under coach Pete Carroll (his former Seattle boss) and Brady’s backing, the question is whether Dorestt can rise again.
