Jags add depth at receiver, reach deal with Thorpe

The Jacksonville Jaguars found a familiar face to add late depth to their already abundant receiving corps by reaching a one-year deal with former Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Craphonso Thorpe.

Though the Jaguars will be Thorpe's fifth team, he's spent a good portion of his career in the AFC South. In 2006, he was with the Houston Texans. Last year, he spent the season with the Colts and caught 12 passes for 70 yards.

The 6-foot, 187-pound receiver was a fourth-round choice of the Kansas City Chiefs in 2005. His one-year deal is worth $370,000.
