And while most of the world wants to know about his fractured relationship with Drake, it\u2019s his connection to the Miami Dolphins that recently made headlines \u2014 specifically if, or when, he\u2019ll join the franchise\u2019s ownership group<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u201cI don\u2019t have that answer,\u201d Ross said, flashing a sly grin. \u201cBut I\u2019m an optimistic Miamian. I\u2019m an optimistic Dolfan. I\u2019m an optimistic entrepreneur. I\u2019m an optimistic young guy that grew up five blocks away from that same stadium.<\/p>\n \u201cSo when I\u2019m speaking of possibly being a minority owner one day, that\u2019s me being optimistic. Am I my serious? Extremely serious. And if the opportunity presents itself, man, it\u2019ll be a blessing.\u201d<\/p>\n Ross wouldn\u2019t be a stranger to the office. The Carol City artist recently starred in the Dolphins\u2019 schedule release video<\/a>. It was creative play on the rap impresario\u2019s stage name, one that he shares with Dolphins owner Stephen Ross.<\/p>\n \u201cWe\u2019ve been in contact and the idea presented itself, and I was like \u2018That\u2019s really too easy!\u2019\u201d Ross said. \u201cLet me put the call to the big boss Stephen Ross and let me go sit in the office and then meet a few players and make sure the streets and the community connected to the Dolphins.\u201d<\/p>\n The opportunity gave him an up close and personal view into some of the Dolphins\u2019 new faces. Although it\u2019s clear that the Dolphins find themselves in the midst of a rebuild, the team appeared really focus.<\/p>\n \u201cYou could really see the dedication,\u201d Ross said. \u201cEverybody understands the assignment. We rebuilding \u2013 and we rebuilding in a big way. We had an amazing, exciting last few seasons, but you know, they just ain\u2019t turned out the way we needed them too. So it was time to rebuild and, um, myself and the city supportive of the moves they made.\u201d<\/p>\n Added Ross: \u201cWe know it\u2019s going to be a grind, but this is a great beginning to a new start.\u201d<\/p>\n On Malik Willis, Ross was impressed with the quarterback\u2019s demeanor.<\/p>\n \u201cHe\u2019s a really focused quarterback,\u201d Ross said before quipping that he\u2019d be \u201ctotally surprised if I bumped into him at Club LIV<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u201cThe focus is there,\u201d Ross continued. \u201cI\u2019m excited.\u201d<\/p>\n The same goes for coach Jeff Hafley.<\/p>\n \u201cHe just felt like a football guy,\u201d Ross said. \u201cHe\u2019s a real football guy and the guys respect him. That\u2019s what we needed as a head coach. It\u2019s got to be somebody that the team, the staff, the staff \u2013 everybody respects.\u201d<\/p>\n Regardless of how Ross feels about the team, odds are the first season under Hafley and co. won\u2019t be all sunshine and rainbows. The Dolphins already have one of the most difficult schedules in 2026, not mention the loss of talent that occurred over the offseason. Still, the fact that both Hafley and Willis got an endorsement from one of the Dolphins\u2019 biggest fans bodes well for the future.<\/p>\n
