Torry Holt, WR, Jacksonville JaguarsNews | Statistics | Utilization | Depth Chart Jaguars | Impressed with Holt so far Vito Stellino, of The Florida Times-Union, reports the Jacksonville Jaguars believe WR Torry Holt will make a major impact both on and off the field this season. "I think the one thing that Torry has brought is a level of trust for David (Garrard), so he's aware that at third-and-7, he's going to run more than seven yards. I think that'll be a good thing for David," general manager Gene Smith said. Holt also has been working with several of the team's young receivers this offseason. Jaguars | Holt gets day off Tuesday Paul Kuharsky, of ESPN.com, reports Jacksonville Jaguars WR Torry Holt (knee) was given the day off from practice Tuesday, June 9, because his knee had a little swelling. Bears | Pace tried to get Holt to sign Vaughn McClure, of the Chicago Tribune, reports Chicago Bears OT Orlando Pace said he tried until the last minute to get Jacksonville Jaguars WR Torry Holt to sign with the team while he was a free agent. "We were working on that for a while," Pace said of Holt. "But I think it's a good fit for him in Jacksonville. He wanted to be in warm weather." Jaguars | Holt, Walker and Northcutt enter as top three receivers Michael C. Wright, of The Times-Union, reports Jacksonville Jaguars WRs Torry Holt and Mike Walker will likely start minicamp as starters on the outside and WR Dennis Northcutt will work as the team's slot receiver in three receiver sets. Jaguars | Holt will help mentor but also focused on his own job Michael C. Wright, of The Times-Union, reports Jacksonville Jaguars WR Torry Holt plans to help mentor the team's young wide receivers but said he also has to focus on his job, too. Holt says people can't ask him to turn the team around, as he feels that would be unfair. "What is fair is I can come in and be a pro, go about my job like I've always done. Hopefully, guys will see that, buy into it and try to do the same thing," Holt said. He noted he has to look at it as all of the younger receivers are coming in to take his job. Jaguars | Holt says reports of his decline were false Vic Ketchman, of Jaguars.com, reports Jacksonville Jaguars WR Torry Holt said reports of his decline have been exaggerated. Holt said, "A lot of that stuff about my knee and not being effective was all false. You never saw me missing games. I think it came down to us not being that good offensively. Everyone struggled." He added, "To be able to catch 64 passes in a disgruntled organization was actually pretty good. All this talk about my decline is false." Jaguars | Holt has high expectations The Associated Press reports Jacksonville Jaguars WR Torry Holt has high expectations entering the 2009 season with his new team. "My goal is always 90-plus catches, 1,300-plus yards and 10-plus touchdowns," Holt said. "That's always been my goal, and those goals won't change. You have to set them pretty high to give yourself something to strive for and reach for. Now, will I reach those goals? Who knows. Do I have the potential to reach those goals? Absolutely. Will I be given those opportunities? I hope I will be given those opportunities in Jacksonville." Jaguars | Holt believes he can play several more years The Associated Press reports Jacksonville Jaguars WR Torry Holt said he believes he can play six more seasons in the NFL. Bears | Did not really pursue Holt Brad Biggs, of the Chicago Sun-Times, reports the Chicago Bears did not really try to sign WR Torry Holt who recently signed with the Jacksonville Jaguars. Jaguars | Could still draft receiver at No. 8 ESPN.com reports the Jacksonville Jaguars could still select a wide receiver with the No. 8 overall pick in the NFL Draft despite the addition of WR Torry Holt.
