Dolphins sign safety, cut pair of offensive linemen

MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — The Miami Dolphins announced several roster moves on Monday, including a new signing.

Safety Major Burns is Miami’s newest addition, while the team has released guard Kion Smith and waived/injured tackle Carter Warren.

Burns had a strong season with the UFL’s Houston Gamblers, recording 45 tackles and four interceptions while defending eight passes. He previously was signed as an undrafted free agent by the Chicago Bears after playing four years with LSU.

Smith had played 23 games with the Dolphins, including two starts, between 2023 and 2025, following two seasons with Miami’s practice squad.

The Dolphins brought Warren in earlier this year on a one-year deal after he’d spent two seasons with the New York Jets, playing in 14 games and starting six.
