"It was really between those two," Keller said, according to the Miami Herald. "Other teams were talking but there really those two teams that came down to and once I made the visit it made my decision pretty easy."
Keller, who is an upgrade in the receiving department from former Dolphins tight end Anthony Fasano, was healthy and productive during his first four seasons with Gang Green but was hampered with injures in 2012.
He'll join a full crop of used-to-be free agent route runners recently signed by the Dolphins in Mike Wallace, Brandon Gibson and Brian Hartline.
The Jets are now left with only Jeff Cumberland at tight end and will either nab a free agent for the position or address it in the draft.
