The Dolphins put themselves in position to give quarterback Daunte Culpepper another target, working out former Detroit Lions wide receiver Charles Rogers on Tuesday, a league source said.
Rogers, who arrived in South Florida on Monday night, was released Sept. '2, three years after he was the second overall pick in the 2003 draft.
It is not known whether the Dolphins offered a contract to Rogers, who worked out with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sept. 5 but didn't catch on. However, the wide receiver was prepared to play with the Dolphins for one year at the minimum salary, the source said. That would allow him to rehab his image and perhaps land a larger contract next season.
Last season, his third, Rogers served a four-game suspension for violating the league's substance-abuse policy. If he tests positive again, he would face a one-year ban.

I see that they're not scared off by Ricky Williams.
