Before waiver claims are processed, it might be useful to see where the roster stands now. The list of 53 will certainly change as the afternoon progresses.<\/p>\n
QUARTERBACKS<\/p>\n
Malik Willis
Kyle McCord<\/p>\n
Remember in 2024 when the QB2 role was decided by a “who is less terrible?” competition between Skylar Thompson and Mike White? At least at this stage in the rebuild, this regime seems willing to move on from underperformers like Cam Miller and Quinn Ewers pretty decisively.<\/p>\n
RUNNING BACKS<\/p>\n
De’Von Achane
Ollie Gordon
Jaylen Wright
DJ Herman (fullback)<\/p>\n
It’s interesting that Jarquez Hunter, who the Dolphins just traded for, was cut. Maybe they try to bring him back, maybe the Tutu Atwell trade was just a salary dump.<\/p>\n
WIDE RECEIVERS<\/p>\n
Chris Bell
Caleb Douglas
Kevin Coleman Jr.
AJ Henning (!)
Ryan Miller
Jalen Tolbert
Malik Washington<\/p>\n
Seven wide receivers! I’d be surprised if all seven survive waivers.<\/p>\n
TIGHT ENDS<\/p>\n
Greg Dulcich
Will Kacmarek
Ben Sims
Seydou Traore<\/p>\n
No big surprises here.<\/p>\n
OFFENSIVE LINE<\/p>\n
Aaron Brewer
Andrew Meyer
DJ Campbell
Jonah Savaiinaea
Marques Cox
Austin Jackson
Patrick Paul
Josh Priebe
Kadyn Proctor
Caedan Wallace<\/p>\n
Cox is a bit of a surprise. Priebe also feels like he’s at risk, especially after the Atlanta preseason game.<\/p>\n
DEFENSIVE LINE<\/p>\n
Zeek Biggers
Keith Cooper Jr.
Jordan Phillips
Zach Sieler<\/p>\n
Cooper really played his way onto the roster.<\/p>\n
EDGE RUSHERS<\/p>\n
Robert Beal Jr.
Clelin Ferrell
Max Llewellyn
Chop Robinson
Josh Uche<\/p>\n
I wasn’t sure Llewellyn was going to make it as a seventh-round pick. I’m a little surprised David Ojabo didn’t make it, though it sounds like his performance petered off as camp went on.<\/p>\n
INSIDE LINEBACKERS<\/p>\n
Jordyn Brooks
Willie Gay Jr.
Ronnie Harrison Jr.
Kyle Louis
Jacob Rodriguez
Jackson Woodard<\/p>\n
I’m surprised the Dolphins couldn’t find a trade partner for Tyrel Dodson.<\/p>\n
CORNERBACKS<\/p>\n
Ethan Bonner
JuJu Brents
A.J. Green III
Chris Johnson
Jason Marshall Jr.<\/p>\n
No big surprises.<\/p>\n
SAFETIES<\/p>\n
Zayne Anderson
Michael Taaffe
Dante Trader Jr.<\/p>\n
A bit eye-opening that there are (for now) only three safeties making the cut. I was hoping Major Burns would sneak on.<\/p>\n
SPECIAL TEAMS<\/p>\n
Tucker Addington
Riley Patterson
Bradley Pinion<\/p>\n
I don’t think Pinion had a good camp. This feels like a potential upgrade opportunity.<\/p>\n
ACTIVE PUP<\/p>\n
Darrell Baker Jr.
Storm Duck<\/p>\n
INJURED RESERVE<\/p>\n
Kenneth Grant (will miss at least the first four weeks of the season)
Trey Moore (will miss at least the first four weeks of the season)
Rene Konga
Cole Turner
Carter Warren<\/p>\n
