Miami Dolphins general manager Jon-Eric Sullivan said Wednesday the team expects its incoming draft class to play early and compete for roles right away as the roster continues to undergo significant turnover.
It is still early in the offseason, but because the Miami Dolphins hired first-year head coach Jeff Hafley, they can begin offseason workouts April 6.
Hours after announcing the release of quarterback Tua Tagovailoa and signing their new signal-caller, Malik Willis, the Dolphins watched several former players land with new teams as the official start of free agency nears.
The next phase of the offseason is the annual NFL Scouting Combine, which takes place at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis.
Miami Dolphins owner Stephen Ross made a rare public appearance Thursday, acknowledging frustration over the franchise’s lack of success and expressing hope that recent leadership changes will “start a new beginning.”
Troy Aikman, ESPN analyst and Hall of Fame quarterback, who advised the Miami Dolphins during their recent general manager search, will also assist in the team’s search for a head coach, NFL insider Ian Rapoport reported Saturday.
The Miami Dolphins have reportedly found the successor to Chris Grier.
