Former Dolphins draft bust Dion Jordan hasn’t really gotten his NFL career off the ground.

But there are at least signs he’s getting closer to coming back for another shot.

Via Adam Beasley of the Miami Herald, the suspended defensive end was shown in some workout photos posted by his trainer, and his agent declared him the “comeback player of the year.”

The photo posted by San Francisco-based trainer Tareq Azim, included the message “Happy to announce my man @dionj95 [Jordan] will solidify his presence to the world.”

Last April, Jordan was suspended for a year for multiple failed drug tests. He hasn’t been reinstated by the league, so there are some significant hurdles for him to clear. Then, he’d need to prove he belonged in the NFL, which he didn’t do with 3.0 sacks in his first two seasons.

The Dolphins would likely welcome the former No. 3 overall pick, though they wanted to see some degree of commitment from him. The photos suggest he’s in some degree of shape, so that’s at least a start.
