Dolphins sign TE Escobar

The Miami Dolphins announced Monday that they signed free-agent tight end Gavin Escobar.

Escobar was a second-round draft pick by the Dallas Cowboys in 2013 but hasn't panned out. He has 30 career receptions for 333 yards and eight touchdowns in 64 NFL games (seven starts).

Escobar played four seasons for the Cowboys behind Jason Witten, scoring four of his eight career touchdowns in 2014.

The 27-year-old Escobar signed with the Kansas City Chiefs last offseason but didn't make the squad. He was later picked up the Baltimore Ravens and played in two games before being released in November.

The Browns signed Escobar in January but he was one of seven players they released last week.

Escobar played college football at San Diego State and had 122 receptions for 1,646 yards and 17 touchdowns from 2010-12.
