The Miami Dolphins on Tuesday hosted four free agent kickers for a try out, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter. The move comes after the team placed incumbent kicker Jason Sanders on injured reserve among the final roster cuts to start the 2025 season. Sanders sustained a hip injury during warmups ahead of the team’s preseason finale against the Jacksonville Jaguars and will now miss at least the first four games of the regular season.
The Dolphins coaching staff took a closer look at Zane Gonzalez, Greg Joseph, Riley Patterson, and Eddy Pineiro, according to Schefter. Miami’s initial 53-man roster does...
After the long beating that is the NFL offseason, our Miami Dolphins will once again return to playing meaningful football in a little less than two weeks from now. With training camp and the preseason now wrapped up, NFL teams have turned to their final cuts. While they call it the final cuts, we all know that the next two weeks will also have some of the normal “churning” of the bottom of the roster with so many free players hitting the market all at the same time. Given the Dolphins’ issues with talent in the secondary and depth on...
The Miami Dolphins completed their roster cuts on Tuesday, dropping from 91 players on the roster to the league’s 53-man regular season limit. The moves came throughout the day, eventually working to 24 offensive players, 26 defensive players, and two special teamers. Now, the fun begins.
Starting on Wednesday, once the waiver wire transactions are complete, Miami will be able to sign players to the practice squad. This group of players is primarily younger players who need more development time but will be sprinkled with veterans who could quickly find themselves on the field on game day.
We will keep...
The Miami Dolphins completed their 2025 roster cuts, dropping from the preseason limit of 90 players to the regular season limit of 53, on Tuesday. Following the league’s 4 p.m. Eastern deadline to make the moves, the team released their initial roster.
The key word is initial. Changes will be coming as the team claims players from other clubs off waivers, signs free agents – including the reported signing of cornerback Rasul Douglas – and makes other moves to continue to tweak the roster.
The team will start filling their practice squad tomorrow, once waivers claims are complete. One move...
The Miami Dolphins are signing Rasul Douglas, adding a veteran cornerback to the roster. Douglas and the Dolphins have been in contact throughout the offseason, and now a deal is finally being signed. The agreement is a one-year contract for $3 million.
NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport was the first to report the signing.
Douglas entered the NFL in 2017 as a third-round pick of the Philadelphia Eagles. During his career, he has had stints with the Carolina Panthers, Las Vegas Raiders (training camp), Houston Texans (training camp), Arizona Cardinals (practice squad), Green Bay Packers, and Buffalo Bills. During his eight...
The Miami Dolphins have some tough decisions to make as they have to trim their roster down to 53 by 4 p.m. ET today. The team started releasing players yesterday and among them we CB Mike Hilton, who recently signed with the team and was thought to be a good veteran addition. But Hilton is mainly a slot corner, but rookie fifth rounder Jason Marshall Jr seems to have cemented himself in that spot after a very impressive offseason and preseason. There is going to be a ton of players released around the league and the Dolphins are definitely not...
We have another training camp/preseason in our rearview mirror as NFL teams now pivot towards the regular season, with most of the NFL beginning play in two weeks. Our Miami Dolphins will also, like every other NFL team, spend today and tomorrow morning making cuts to get down to their initial 53-man roster before 4 PM EST Tomorrow. Following those initial cuts, our Dolphins, along with much of the NFL, will then dig through the cut/waive lists looking for players to improve the team by churning the bottom of the roster. Miami will have some special interest in this year’s...
If you watched the Dolphins’ final preseason contest — a 14-6 victory for Miami over the Jacksonville Jaguars — you may have noticed that All-Pro kicker Jason Sanders was not doing the kicking for the team and instead, punter Jake Bailey handled those duties. Following the game, head coach Mike McDaniel intimated that the reason for that was a minor injury to the 29-year-old Sanders.
On Monday, McDaniel updated Sanders’ injury status, and the ailment seems to be more serious than initially thought. Miami’s head coach told media members in attendance that Jason Sanders would miss the beginning of the...
The Miami Dolphins, and all NFL teams, have until 4 p.m. Eastern tomorrow to drop from their 90-man preseason roster to the 53-man roster limit the league enforces during the season. There are some tough choices that the coaching staff and front office will have to make before tomorrow afternoon. For every player who is kept, there is one less spot for someone else to claim.
Miami’s preseason featured a 24-24 tie with the Chicago Bears in Preseason Week 1, followed by a 24-17 win over the Detroit Lions in Preseason Week 2. Over this past weekend, Miami beat the...
The Miami Dolphins have started their roster moves to drop their roster size from the preseason’s 90-man limit to the regular season’s 53-man limit. The NFL requires all teams meet the limitation by 4 p.m. Eastern on Tuesday, but teams will start making the roster moves throughout Monday and Tuesday to be ahead of the deadline.
Miami started their moves Monday morning with the release of running back Aaron Shampklin. The release was first reported by NFL Network’s Cameron Wolfe. Shortly after that move was reported, the Miami Herald’s Barry Jackson added running back Mike Boone to the cut list....
The Miami Dolphins are 13 days away from starting their 2025 regular season schedule. How will the season play out for a team looking to bounce back to the playoffs after missing them last year? Will any of Miami’s players have huge individual seasons as the team puts together wins and makes a playoff run?

With our Miami Dolphins wrapping up their preseason last evening, I asked the following question this past week:
With the Jacksonville Jaguars coming to town this week/weekend for joint practices and their final preseason game, which Jaguar player(s) would you steal for the Miami Dolphins roster and why?
Below are some of your thoughts and answers-
dedstrk says that was the easiest question ever.
One billion percent Travis Hunter. Easiest question ever.
sdphinsfan, in response to dedstrk, points out one possible downside.
One billion percent agree…with one caveat. If he we’re a Dolphin, he’d spend alot of...
