Congrats to Arizona's own Trey Griffey on keeping the dream alive.

The son of Baseball Hall of Famer Ken Griffey Jr., Trey will be signing with the Miami Dolphins, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports.

Griffey is a wide receiver who played his college ball at Arizona. He was not drafted in June but he did sign with the Colts. He was waived a month later.

Griffey had 1,241 receiving yards and six touchdowns during his college career.

Griffey, a 6'3″, 209 pound athlete, had 23 catches for 382 yards and two touchdowns in his final season at Arizona. He found his way to the Colts after going undrafted this spring, but an injury led to him being dropped from the roster five weeks later.

He'll now try his luck in Miami, where he may have slightly better odds of making the team than he did in Indianapolis. The Dolphins have numbers at wide receiver, but Rashawn Scott finds himself on the PUP list with a foot injury, meaning that a final WR spot could be up for grabs. Jarvis Landry, Kenny Stills, and DeVante Parker are locks to make the roster while Leonte Carroo and Jakeem Grant seem likely at the WR4/WR5 spots. After that, it may be a group of players including seventh-round rookie Isaiah Ford and Griffey vying for the final reserve role.
