Quote:Two veterans to watch during OTAs: tight end Austin Seferian-Jenkins and wide receiver Donte Moncrief. The duo signed as unrestricted free agents in March and both are expected to play key roles as starters in 2018. “Donte had a bunch of catches and was in the right spot; he hit all the right landmarks,” Bortles said, adding “He [Moncrief] is going to give us another target down in the red zone. With Keelan, Austin and Donte, we have three big guys who can go play one-on-one, catch fades and do different things down in the red zone. The most impressive thing about him (Moncrief) is how hard he has worked. All offseason, during Phase 2 – throwing routes on air – the effort and precision in his route-running has been extremely impressive.” Bortles appeared particularly in sync with Seferian-Jenkins Tuesday, connecting several times on intermediate routes and once downfield between the hashmarks and sideline. “We’ve gotten a chance to throw these past couple of weeks,” Bortles said. “I think he’s going to do a lot for us. I think he’s going to be a mismatch nightmare.”
