Michael Wortham's college career
During the 2023 and 2024 seasons, Wortham totaled just 32 targets at Eastern Washington, but this past year at Montana, he took on a major role within the offense. Wortham finished the 2025 season recording 100 targets. He was extremely efficient as a pass-catcher, hauling in 80 of those passes, while totaling 1,137 yards with nine touchdowns. Most of his career snaps came from the slot. Wortham averaged an impressive 14.2 yards per catch last season.
2026 NFL season outlook
Wide receiver was a position on the Jaguars' radar this offseason, but after GM James Gladstone drafted CJ Williams and Josh Cameron, this room became quite crowded. Those two wideouts -- who impressed during minicamp -- joined Brian Thomas Jr. , Parker Washington , Jakobi Meyers , and Travis Hunter . It's possible that just these six make up the Jaguars' 2026 wide receiver room.

There is also experience on the back end of the Jaguars' wide receiver depth chart, as well, in Austin Trammell and Tim Jones . Realistically, making the practice squad may be the most likely landing spot for Wortham coming out of training camp. The ability to help on special teams will be an important part of the evaluation process.
