Dolphins rookie WR Jakeem Grant earns nickname Mighty Mouse

[DKphin]

Dolphins receiver Jakeem Grant makes a catch during Dolphins practice on Thursday (Allen Eyestone / The Palm Beach Post)

Jakeem Grant has only been around for three Dolphins practices but he’s already earned a nickname.
Grant, Miami’s 5-foot-6 rookie receiver out of Texas Tech, has been turning heads with his blazing speed.
“He’s small, but we call him Mighty Mouse,” quarterback Ryan Tannehill said. “He’s making plays all over the field. He’s one of the fastest guys I’ve ever seen. He has that low center of gravity. He’s able to be really, really shifty coming in and out of his cuts. He makes a lot of plays so far.”

So at the top we got "Goose" - Adam Gase (dubbed by Broncos)

and then...

"Juice" - Jarvis Landry

"Spider-Man" - Devante Parker

"Honey-Badger" - Kenny Stills (dubbed by Saints for his hair)

"Mighty-Mouse" - aka Jakeem "The Dream" Grant


---So whats Leonte Caroo's nickname gonna be???? Isn't it cool though...all these weapons. They all gonna talk smack to each other and compete. Got the alphas. Got the talent. Got the spirit....this is the best offense the Dolphins have ever had (in theory) in the passing game since the beginning of my fandom in the mid-90s. So excited.

Let me be like one of these trolls... "MERGE!!!"


But on a serious note... if the kids is earning nicknames like that he must be standing out already. I imagine this guy being our 5th WR/special teams returner. Can someone say hall of fame!? And only on the 3rd day of OTA's. I knew it from the moment they hired Adam Gase. All of this makes sense.

Shifty, diminutive WR Jakeem Grant continuing to make plays.

The potential for mismatches on offense is just ridiculous. Gase is gonna have a lot of fun this year.

There's only one Honey Badger and it ain't Kenny Stills.

The areas in games where his skill set will be invaluable ... at 3rd & short...in the redzone... at 1st and goal...against over aggressive defenses...against less athletic defenses...Against one dimensional defenses (you can get him the ball through the air or on a run play)
