NFL Sportsbook: Dolphins Sign Curtis

The Miami Dolphins have signed a contract with Kevin Curtis to strengthen their wide receiving end. This news has delighted several NFL sportsbook fans.

The 32 years old Curtis is expected to provide some depth for the team, whose receivers have been suffering from injuries this season. Brandon Marshall has sustained a hamstring injury recently. Brian Hartline on the other hand will be missing the remaining season as he has undergone a hand surgery last week.

There are reports that Curtis had not played in the NFL this season, as he was fighting testicular cancer. The reports also said that Curtis underwent surgery in September to get the cancerous testicle removed.

Curtis had appeared in only 12 games during 2008-09, as he sustained several injuries. He has recorded 252 receptions for 3,291 yards along with 20 touchdowns, in his 79 career games over seven seasons, which he has played with St. Louis and Philadelphia.

In 2007 he set his career high record of 77 catches and 1,110 yards with the Eagles.

The betting enthusiasts believe that, with Curtis in the team, the NFL Betting Trends will certainly change for the Dolphins.
