The big news for the Dolphins preceding the joint practice with the NY Giants was the Miami Dolphins removing WR Chris Bell from the NFI (Non Football Injury) List. That’s great news for Dolphins fans. This doesn’t mean he’s playing Week, but he might. Once a player is healthy, and he’s logged in some contact, and he can handle that contact without any issues, that’s it, he’s ready to go. I can guarantee you the Dolphins are not going to be careless with Chris Bell. He will get playing time here and there and ramp it up to the point where he can be a real contributor by October, providing he’s feeling good.
The other big news is the feisty joint practice between the NY Giants and the Miami Dolphins. Seems like Malik Willis got sacked on every drop back except for one where he got the ball out quickly to RB De’Von Achane who was set free by a big block from TE Will Kacmarek. Achane was off the to the races, and once that happens, Achane doesn’t lose many races. Is it concerning that the O-line took a beating against a very talented Giants front 7? Yes, and no. Let’s see how they look during the game. Yes, it’s a preseason game, but bet your ass the Dolphins will want to look better at home, in front of the fans at Hard Rock. I thought the first series with the starters last week against Washington (who held out 20 or so starters in total) looked great against the Commanders 2nd teamers. I felt like the team look disciplined and organized. We’ll see how they look in Game 2.
Once again, accountability is a strong point with HC Jeff Hafley. You step outside the lines, you get pulled. There are ramifications for your actions. The sooner you learn that, the better off you will be or you will routinely be grabbing pine. There are the advantages of not being in immediate contention. You can penalize your best players if necessary to make a point and set the tone. It’s obviously a refreshing change from the lounge-like atmosphere we had with Mike McDaniel as Head Coach. This is a very young team, and these young players are going to learn to do things the right way. That’s how you build a strong core. Of course you need talent to do that, and despite being cap-strapped by former GM Chris Grier, we re-signed the right veteran players with talent such as RB De’Von Achane, OC Aaron Brewer, and LB Jordyn Brooks.
I would love to see some improvement from the 2nd, 3rd and 4th team players in preseason game 2 at home against the NY Giants. There was quite the dropoff last week at Washington once the starters came out. I’d like it to be a less noticeable that the starters are resting and that some of the 2nd and 3rd teamer’s show up a little better. I’d love to see in an improvement in the pass rush as well, whether it’s Chop Robinson, Joshua Uche, David Ojabo, Robert Beal or Clelin Ferrell. Chop has been getting a lot of hype, but wouldn’t it be great to see him actually sack the QB rather than be in the vicinity, much like his former teammate Jaelan Phillips?
I think this team is going in the right direction, and that’s a great feeling to me. How many wins that translates into is difficult to say, but to think that we shed two veteran Top 30 WR’s, and may have actually drafted their replacements in the very next draft without using a 1st or 2nd RD pick is pretty impressive. Also, don’t count out slot WR Kevin Coleman, who will have a tough time stealing opportunities from WR Malik Washington, but I think he will get some chances, and if he makes the most of them, will see even more opportunities. The 2nd year D-linemen who came from Chris Grier’s final draft are going to get plenty of playing time. DL Kenneth has to be better as a 1st RD pick, but while he’s not playing up to his draft position, 5th RD pick DL Jordan Phillips and 7th RD pick DL Zeek Biggers have exceeded their draft position by a good margin.
We’re not going to see a lot of strategy, in fact, it’s vanilla all the way through the preseason, but once the season starts, we’ll get a much better idea of how Jeff Hafley will implement his chess pieces, all the tweeners like S Kyle Louis, DE/LB Trey Moore, Outside CB and Slot CB Chris Johnson, LB Jacob Rodrigues, S Michael Taaffe. When the cutdowns occur, guys to keep an eye on are LB’s Willie Gay Jr., ILB Tyrel Dodson, and LB Cameron Goode who has special teams prowess, but no much beyond that. I’d like to see TE Seydou Treore show some receiving skills, and I will try to keep a close eye on backup RT acquired in the trade with New England Patriots a week or so ago, RT Caedan Wallace, who has looked good early on. So very important, considering RT Austin Jackson’s track record of missing lots of playing time. Being a Dolphins fan and living in NJ, the Giants are the only other team in the NFL I can root for, but not tomorrow!
GO DOLPHINS!!!
I agree Steve, we may grab another teams QB after cuts. Though, I heard rumblings that the Steelers might keep all 4 if they can’t trade Mason Rudolph. Almost every team has a solid #2 QB so I don’t see many takers for Rudolph. I would sign him if he ends up cut.
Jackson Woodard is tied for the 5th most tackles during preseason. This even comes with some who have played 3 PS games (HOF game).
Willie Gay tied for 4th most
Though I know snaps are a major factor
INJURIES

Fucker’s parents couldn’t be content with being stupid and adding an apostrophe to his name, they had to be special stupid by adding TWO apostrophes to his name!
Chris Bell practicing without red jersey. 🙂
and he has 19 more days to be ready for week 1
From Alain Poupart:
The Miami Dolphins were back at practice Monday for a short session that featured some half-speed work, but more notably the return of a couple of notable players.
Quarterback Quinn Ewers was back at practice for the first time since the preseason opener against the Washington Commanders when he sustained what was reported as a groin injury.
Rookie wide receiver Chris Bell practiced without a red jersey for the first time since being activated from the Non-Football Injury list, and cornerback JuJu Brents took part in team periods for the first time in a couple of weeks.
Before we declare any of those players fully back, though, just based on their participation Monday, we should point out the team reps not involving the first-team offense and defense were done at half speed.
Head coach Jeff Hafley said before practice that would be the plan and was a byproduct of the projected starters not playing in the preseason game against the New York Giants on Saturday and the backups getting a lot of snaps in that 26-3 loss.
Bell did get a couple of full-speed reps, but he didn’t make a catch, dropping a Malik Willis floater in the middle of the field after the pass barely cleared linebacker Jacob Rodriguez.
The practice, which came in under 90 minutes, was conducted most of the way in the rain, at first light but increasing in intensity after a bit.
ATTENDANCE REPORT
The Dolphins still practice without several key veterans and the tight end room is getting thinner.
Defensive tackle Zach Sieler, linebacker Jordyn Brooks, edge Clelin Ferrell, linebacker Ronnie Harrison Jr. and defensive tackle Kenneth Grant again missed practice but were in attendance.
Rookie linebacker Trey Moore, edge Cameron Goode and cornerback Ahmari Harvey were the three players who didn’t practice and were not spotted.
At tight end, rookie draft picks Will Kacmarek and Seydou Traore joined Ben Sims on the sidelines.
I thought I saw Kacmarek get dinging on one play. Looked like it was a hand or something, but he kept playing for a bit.
PRACTICE HIGHLIGHTS AND OBSERVATIONS
— The first-team defense had the better of the offense, with Malik Willis completing 7 of 16 passes in team periods without necessarily having a bad day. He did have his share of passes broken up, often because of tight coverage, though once on a pass thrown a bit behind the receiver.
— Rookie first-round pick Chris Johnson was the standout player on traffic with some outstanding coverage once again. His highlight play came early in practice when he blanketed Caleb Douglas on what looked like a go route, to the point where Douglas gave up and Johnson became the closest player to the deep pass that Willis threw. This wasn’t the first time that Johnson has shut down Douglas, as he continues to look better and better.
— On the flip side, Douglas continues to be awfully quiet following all the national praise that came his way with his circus catch in the Washington preseason game. He was held without a catch for a second time in three practices.
— Rookie free agent D.J. Herman continues to make his case for a spot on the 53-man roster. He came up with a couple of nice lead blocks on running plays.
— Guard Jonah Savaiinaea also appeared to have a nice opening block on a De’Von Achane run where he found some daylight up the middle.
— There were no officials at the Baptist Health Training Complex, which might have been good news for left tackle Patrick Paul, who was kinda sorta holding on a couple of pass-protection reps against Chop Robinson and Josh Uche.
— Linebacker Willie Gay Jr. had a would-be sack when he came in free on a blitz.
— Tight end Greg Dulcich had a nice high catch over the middle on a Willis pass thrown a bit behind him.
— Jalen Tolbert had a nice touchdown catch in a red zone period when he went up in the back of the end zone to beat safety Michael Taaffe.
— Ewers also had a touchdown pass in the red zone to running back Carlos Washington Jr., but again that was at half-speed.
— Tight end Jeremiah Franklin had a touchdown catch from third quarterback Cam Miller.
— With Ewers back, Mark Gronowski didn’t take snaps in team reps and his time on the roster obviously is short.
Not much notes. I guess it was short easy day of practice.
Jeff Hafley Gives Dolphins Injury Updates, Talks Roster Decisions
Jeff Hafley Gives Dolphins Injury Updates, Talks Roster Decisions
Miami Dolphins head coach Jeff Hafley met with the media Sunday following Miami’s 26-3 preseason loss to the New York Giants, and much of the conversation centered on injuries, roster evaluation and what lies ahead during the final week of the preseason.
With roster decisions approaching and Miami preparing for its preseason finale, Hafley made it clear the next several days will be important for both established starters and players fighting to earn a spot on the 53-man roster.
Trey Moore Will “Miss Some Time”
One of the biggest pieces of news involved linebacker Trey Moore, who suffered an ankle injury against the Giants.
Hafley confirmed that Moore will be sidelined and indicated a quick return is unlikely.
“Trey will miss some time,” Hafley said. “I don’t see him back being soon. I’m not sure how long it will be.”
Hafley said the Dolphins will have a better idea of Moore’s timetable after additional testing is completed.
There was better news regarding running back Ollie Gordon, who was hit in the ribs during the game. Hafley said Gordon was medically cleared to return, but the Dolphins decided there was no reason to put him back on the field.
Ronnie Stanley, meanwhile, suffered a hamstring issue after making a play on third down. Hafley said Stanley will “probably be unlikely” to participate this week.
Hafley Sees Giants Game as Valuable Evaluation Tool
The final score wasn’t what Hafley wanted, but the Dolphins purposely used the game as an opportunity to get an extended look at younger players and those battling for roster spots.
Hafley said some players helped themselves while others made both mental and physical mistakes.
“I thought some guys stood out and helped their cases and made some plays,” Hafley said.
Despite the disappointing performance, Hafley emphasized how valuable the film will be as he and general manager Jon-Eric Sullivan determine which players belong on the roster.
He called preseason games an important evaluation tool because they allow Miami to determine which players moved up or down and where the roster still needs improvement.
Dolphins Enter an Important Final Week
Miami’s approach to practice will change during the final week of the preseason.
Many of the Dolphins’ starters barely played against the Giants, and Hafley wants to begin ramping up their workload as the team moves closer to the regular season. Players who received significant snaps Saturday will have a lighter workload while recovering.
Hafley also wants the starters to get more situational work with less scripting.
“Some more situational football, some more move the ball and just play ball where there’s less scripting and more thinking from the players,” Hafley said.
At the same time, players on the roster bubble are fighting for their jobs. Hafley acknowledged how stressful the week can be for those players and said the coaching staff needs to give them every opportunity to prove themselves.
Quarterback Play “Needs to Improve”
After reviewing the film, Hafley didn’t place all the blame for Miami’s offensive struggles on the quarterbacks.
The Dolphins ran just 37 offensive plays, something Hafley called possibly the lowest total he has ever seen during his coaching career. Miami’s quarterbacks also dealt with difficult field position, including possessions backed up near their own goal line.
Still, Hafley acknowledged the performance wasn’t good enough.
“There were times where it just, it wasn’t good enough and it needs to be played better and it needs to be coached better,” Hafley said.
He pointed out that evaluating quarterback play requires looking at the entire offense, including whether receivers ran the correct routes, whether passes were dropped and whether the protection held up.
Hafley Wants Rookie Receivers to Develop Consistency
Hafley also discussed Miami’s young receiving corps, including Kevin Coleman Jr., Caleb Douglas and Chris Bell.
His primary goal is simple: improvement.
Hafley wants the rookie receivers to push one another, develop chemistry with quarterback Malik Willis and establish their individual roles within the offense.
Most importantly, he wants them to become consistent enough that the coaching staff can trust them.
Hafley acknowledged there will be growing pains. Rookies will produce exciting plays, but they’ll also make mistakes that become learning opportunities. With several rookies potentially playing significant roles for Miami this season, their continued development could become an important storyline.
Quinn Ewers Could Return to Practice
Hafley also provided a positive update on quarterback Quinn Ewers.
When asked whether Ewers has a chance to practice this week, Hafley responded, “Yeah, I’m hopeful that we’ll get to see him at practice this week.”
Getting Ewers back on the practice field would give Miami another quarterback to evaluate before the regular season begins.
Hafley Wants More Consistency From the Offense
The Dolphins haven’t shown much of their starting offense during the preseason, but Hafley believes there have been encouraging signs.
He specifically mentioned the continued improvement and confidence at quarterback and stretches in which Miami has run the football effectively.
The biggest issue remains consistency.
“The overall consistency, it has to get better,” Hafley said.
He believes part of that will come naturally as Miami settles on its depth chart and gets its primary players more snaps together.
Dante Trader Making a Push for a Starting Job
One of Hafley’s most positive assessments Sunday involved defensive back Dante Trader.
Hafley praised Trader’s physicality, tackling and effort against the Giants and called him one of Miami’s bright spots.
Trader also prevented what could have become a huge play after a coverage breakdown by coming over from the middle of the field to make the stop.
“I think that that puts him right back where he left off, in a great spot to be in the mix and compete for that starting position,” Hafley said.
That’s a significant endorsement with the regular season approaching and roster and starting-position battles nearing their conclusions.
Dolphins Plan to Be Aggressive on Waiver Wire
Miami has already been active searching for outside help, and Hafley doesn’t expect that approach to change.
Hafley said he and Sullivan are constantly discussing ways to improve the roster and that Miami has an obligation to aggressively pursue players who could make the team better.
“If we feel like there are players out there that can help our roster, then we need to be aggressive,” Hafley said.
That approach won’t necessarily end when the initial 53-man roster is established. Hafley indicated Miami will continue evaluating available players throughout the season.
Keith Cooper Jr. Has Made One of Camp’s Biggest Jumps
Hafley saved some of his strongest praise for Keith Cooper Jr., a player who entered training camp facing an uphill battle to make the roster.
According to Hafley, Cooper has been one of the Dolphins’ most improved players.
“He is a guy that, in my opinion, has made one of the biggest jumps from where he started to where he is right now,” Hafley said.
Miami has used Cooper both inside and outside, and Hafley praised his improvement in fundamentals, technique and physicality, along with the development of his pass-rush moves.
Hafley believes Cooper has put himself in a much different position than when training camp began.
Final Week Will Help Shape Dolphins’ 53-Man Roster
The biggest takeaway from Hafley’s Sunday press conference is that the Dolphins are entering a transition point in their preseason.
For the starters, the focus is shifting toward preparing for the regular season. For everyone else, Friday night’s preseason finale represents another—and potentially final—opportunity to prove they belong.
Hafley admitted the loss to the Giants didn’t sit well with him as a competitor, but he also stressed that the film from the game was invaluable.
Right now, wins and losses aren’t the primary objective. Miami needs to determine which players it can count on when the regular season arrives.
With roster cuts approaching, Hafley and Sullivan have several difficult decisions ahead of them—and the performances over the next several days could determine who makes the Dolphins’ final 53
when did we trade for Ronnie Stanley🤔
🤣 I think he meant Ronnie Harrison?
BBM,
I’m actually watching a replay of our game right now. Kacmarek came up limping on a punt coverage play late in the third quarter. Don’t know if that was the issue.
Might have been. I remember that play, thanks for reminding me. I also remember seeing him grabbing his hand at one point but it is probably that issue from the punt coverage.
Dolphins working out former first-round pick on Monday
The Miami Dolphins have had some injuries at linebacker recently, with Jordyn Brooks and Tyrel Dodson both not participating in recent practices and Trey Moore suffering an ankle injury early in Saturday’s game against the New York Giants.
With the state of the room, Miami is looking for depth options on the free agent market, and KPRC2’s Aaron Wilson reported that the Dolphins are hosting linebackers Kenneth Murray and Jaheim Thomas for workouts.
Murray, 27, played collegiately at Oklahoma from 2017-19, earning All-Big 12 honors twice. His performance with the Sooners led the Los Angeles Chargers to take him in the first round of the 2020 NFL draft.
After four years with the Chargers, Murray spent 2024 with the Tennessee Titans and spent last year with the Dallas Cowboys.
In 90 games between the three teams, he’s recorded 497 tackles, 17 quarterback hits, 14 passes defensed, 9.5 sacks, three interceptions, two forced fumbles and one fumble recovery.
Thomas, 24, split his collegiate days between Cincinnati (2020-22), Arkansas (2023) and Wisconsin (2024) before going undrafted in 2025. He got a rookie minicamp invite from the Carolina Panthers but didn’t make the team.
Instead, he played for the Louisville Kings in the UFL, appearing in 12 games and recording 79 tackles, five passes defensed and a half-sack on his way to a UFL championship.
Man, we already have 10 LB’s on the roster not counting the 9 Edge players we have.
I guess that is what happens when you have a defensive coach. I wish they would be this diligent with the back end of the OL, especially OT. Seems Wallace may be the only decent OT depth we got.
Moore is going to be out a while. Don’t know about the injury on Harrison.
We still have Brooks, Dodson, Rodriguez, Gay, Woodard and the new guy Cam Riley who had like 10 total tackles vs the Giants after just joining the team that morning.
Overall PFF grades: Offense (min. 10 snaps)
Top 5
Bottom 5
These were the grades from PS2.
Pass protection grades (OL only)
Run-blocking grades (OL only)
Overall PFF grades: Defense (min. 10 snaps)
Top 5
Bottom 5
Woodard was the highest graded Dolphins player for the game.
Safeties Johnson and Anderson sucked. No wonder Trader looked really good.
Pass-rush grades (front-seven only, min. 10 pass-rush snaps)
Coverage grades (min. 10 coverage snaps)
Maybe they should play an all LB defense – They seem to have a lot of good ones.

when did we trade for Ronnie Stanley 🤔
————-
I was thinking the exact same thing when I read that above. We didn’t even play the Ravens so it came out of right field to me.
I knee what he meant, our 3rd injury, Ronnie Harrison jr
But it was a hamstring injury, not a knee injury. LOL 😉
I like Travis….
https://www.miamidolphins.com/news/practice-15-2026-miami-dolphins-training-camp-notebook
The wildcards are Malik Willis, Caleb Douglas, Chris Bell, Kevin Coleman Jr. along with Malik Washington.
Achane is elite. He will do what he always does.
I think Coleman is a dawg, Bell can be too, if he gets back to pre-injury form. Washington may have to carry the workload early as the volume receiver. Douglas will be the early down downfield threat, if he can also be short catch and run receiver it’ll change everything
Offense will need an identity each week. Hopefully we can run the ball consistently, that will make the passing game go. The passing game opening up the running game will be key
Our TE position is underrated.
the blocking side yes, the receiving side may be a problem. Dulcich makes or breaks the unit
Agreed.
Trey Moore is going to have surgery. Hafley says, he hopes to get him back at some point this season
https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/2026-nfl-roster-rankings-32-17/
Anyone want to guess who is #32?
At least we aren’t the Browns!! They named Deshawn as the starter this week. LOL! $200M guaranteed and has been the worst QB in the league statistically since the trade. (Boy, I wonder why “probowl” Sanders didn’t win the spot? 😆
There’s hope receiver Chris Bell will get some time vs. Atlanta on Friday if he continues to progress. “He’ll have a pretty bigger load today in practice where he’ll get more reps and hopefully he’ll continue to progress. And if he continues to do so, then I’d like to see him playing the game.”
WTH does that mean?
Miami Dolphins news: Kenneth Grant injury
*Kenneth Grant was seen working on the side, Grant also had a scooter.”
So, he has a scooter to get on and off the practice field?
Yeah WTH
He’s tired. It’s a long walk!
The Miami Dolphins announced today that they have signed tight end Ethan Conner and inside linebacker Jaheim Thomas and waived center Jim Bonifas and cornerback Ahmari Harvey.
I am sure the TE is camp fodder for PS3 since Kacmarek, Sims and Traore are banged up.
Also, don’t know what they could possibly see in LB Jaheim Thomas. He has probably the worst athletic scores for a LB I have ever seen. I know athletic scores are not everything, but, come on, 5.06 forty, 28″ vertical and 8’8″ broad jump.
Kevin Stefanski announced Monday that the Falcons’ starters will play in Friday’s preseason game against the Miami Dolphins, giving Atlanta’s top players valuable game reps as the team continues preparing for the regular season.
I wonder if this will change how Hafley approaches the game this week.
I think we see healthy starters for at least a series.
Poupart thinks the FB will make the final 53
https://www.si.com/nfl/dolphins/onsi/dolphins-2026-53-man-roster-projection-4-0-how-things-stand-one-week-before-cuts-01m0qrt5z3zw
With Sims hurt, he very well could.
Heck over Campbell is ? for me. Though, with Jackson’s history, we do need more OT depth than just Wallace.
WR #6 is a question. What has Reagor done to earn that spot? Nothing!
I mentioned something a month ago about Reagor, and was shot down, haven’t mentioned him since
at camp I attended he showed up a little and his blocking was decent. He’s a vet on a team with little exp you never know
Looking at those position groups Safety seems to be the weakest maybe.
UPDATE: ESPN’s Pete Thamel reported on Tuesday that the Big Ten is set to pass a rule that doesn’t allow players to return from the NFL to play for a school in their conference.
————
That is not fair. Though, I don’t think this should happen. It still is not fair that other conferences should be able to benefit from this and not teams in the Big Ten.
Hopefully this won’t affect Indiana DE/Edge players Stephen Daley and Kellen Wyatt. They are both eligible for the 5th year. They both finished the season injured, both went undrafted due to that and have never spent a day on an NFL roster. So even this new Big Ten ruling should not affect them, again hopefully.
from PBP
MIAMI GARDENS — The Miami Dolphins welcomed a major player to practice the morning of Tuesday, Aug. 25.
Receiver Chris Bell, a third-round pick from Louisville, took another step in his recovery from last season’s knee injury as coaches gave him a bigger workload. The goal is for Bell to make his preseason debut in Friday’s home game vs. Atlanta, the preseason finale.
Bell was seen during warmups in full uniform before last week’s game vs. the New York Giants, but Bell did not play, which would have been a surprise.
Bell’s first notable play was a reception from Malik Willis along the sideline after Willis’ offensive line picked up a blitz to give him time.
Bell later caught a 15-yard pass from Quinn Ewers.
In 11-on-11s …
The only positions was seem to have solid depth in the front 7. It’s up in the air if DT Keith Cooper Jr makes it, but he should be priority 1 for the practice squad.
I don’t see a reason Jackson Woodard should not make the 53. He has been solid all of TC which questions why do they keep bringing in all these other ILB’ers? If Woodard does not make it, I will be disappointed.
From Poupart at SI this morning:
The Miami Dolphins turned up the tempo a bit in practice Tuesday, but what really stood out was how much the defense dominated — or how poorly the offense performed, depending on how you want to look at things.
Quarterback Malik Willis had perhaps his most inaccurate practice of camp, with a couple of misfires, an interception by linebacker Jackson Woodard and some ball security issues early on.
Backup quarterback Quinn Ewers back in full-speed team drills for the first time since the preseason opener against the Washington Commanders did not look throwing the ball and also threw a pick. He said afterward he was back to 100 percent after confirming he injured his right groin against Washington, but was adamant that health issues have played no part in what continues to be a difficult summer for him.
As head coach Jeff Hafley had suggested before practice, rookie wide receiver Chris Bell had an increased work load after getting isolated team reps before and caught two passes in 11-on-11 work.
But what will be remembered on this day was how much the defense had the better of the offense.
Midway through practice, Willis gathered the offensive players in a big huddle for what seemed like a pretty animated pep talk.
Unfortunately for Willis and the rest of the offense, things didn’t get much better after that.
ATTENDANCE REPORT
Two players were injured during practice and, of course, one of them had to be a tight end.
The Dolphins already were practicing without Ben Sims and rookies Will Kacmarek and Seydou Traore before Cole Turner went inside the Baptist Health Training Complex accompanied by a trainer.
Wide receiver Theo Wease Jr., meanwhile, was shaken up when he collided with safety Major Burns while going up for a pass. Wease remained outside, but didn’t take another rep after that.
Defensive tackle Zach Sieler, linebacker Jordyn Brooks, edge Clelin Ferrell and defensive tackle Kenneth Grant again missed practice but were in attendance.
Rookie linebacker Trey Moore, edge Cameron Goode and linebacker Ronnie Harrjson Jr. were three players who didn’t practice and were not spotted. Head coach Jeff Hafley provided an update on Moore’s status before practice.
PRACTICE HIGHLIGHTS AND OBSERVATIONS
— We already have mentioned Woodard’s interception, but that was just one of many plays he made as he continues to impress and move toward locking up on the 53-man roster.
— Likewise, it continues to be impossible to ignore young defensive tackle Keith Cooper Jr., who I brought up to Hafley in the Zoom media session Sunday, with him expressing gratitude that somebody was acknowledging the first-year player’s progress.
— Yet another player who continues to impress is rookie first-round pick Chris Johnson, who is providing really sticky coverage. He began his practice with two winning reps in one-on-one work against wide receivers Kevin Coleman Jr. and Malik Washington before breaking up a couple of passes in team periods. Washington got a catch against him later on a slant.
— The issues on offense weren’t limited to the quarterbacks — Cam Miller and Mark Gronowski took no reps in team periods — because the receivers again dropped passes or failed to make catchable receptions. Running back Ollie Gordon II and fullback D.J. Herman had the two most egregious drops of the day, not good for a rookie free agent trying to work his way onto the roster.
— In the one-on-one matchups between pass rushers and O-linemen, Chop Robinson again got the better of Austin Jackson, Jonah Savaiinaea stonewalled Zeek Biggers, and Josh Uche beat Patrick Paul.
— As an example of the sloppiness of the first-team offense, Willis dropped the snap on the first 11-on-11 play and two plays later dropped a shotgun snap. And, no, it didn’t rain during practice.
— Rookie wide receiver Caleb Douglas had a pretty quiet day, though he did have a nice 25-yard reception from Willis over the middle.
— While Chop Robinson didn’t get any “would-be sacks” in this practice, he had a couple of noticeable run plays where he did the job.
— Linebacker Cam Riley, who has made a very good early impression since signing late last week, got his interception against Ewers when he stepped in front of tight end Greg Dulcich near the sideline. This was a pass that lacked zip, something we noticed from Ewers all day that made it seem he simply wasn’t right physically.
— Edge David Ojabo had himself a solid practice, including getting past rookie D.J. Campbell to get pressure on Ewers. He later beat Caedan Wallace around the edge and knocked the ball out of Ewers’ hands for the strip/sack.
— Safety Zayne Anderson had a good pass breakup against new tight end Ethan Conner on a pass across the middle that was thrown a bit behind.
— The biggest highlight for the offense probably was a run by De’Von Achane to the left side where he might have scored from 25 yards out, with Paul providing the key block.
— Willis did show off his ability to throw from all angles, completing a pass to Achane with a sidearm delivery.
— Rookie seventh-round pick Max Llewellyn made a couple of plays, one against the run and another when he got close to Willis. That play maybe would have produced a sack in a real game; as it was, Willis continued and his pass was intercepted by Willie Gay Jr.
— So take your pick on that one, sack or interception.
— Yep, it was that kind of day for the offense.
With Trey Moore out, for WLB, MLB and SLB, we have Brooks, Rodriguez, Harrison, Dodson, Gay, Louis(safety?), Woodard, Cam Riley (who is looking good), and other new guys in Dix and Thomas.
That’s 10 LB’s not counting Trey Moore. Best thing to do is trade one of Harrison, Dodson or Gay this week. Get an extra pick or a good OL prospect.
^^
Give this man a spot on the 53. Trade any one of Dodson, Harrison or Gay.
I think the best LB to try and trade is Dodson. With Trey Moore out, Harrison and Gay (I believe) are the backups to the SLB position. We seem to be the strongest at MLB. Still, try to trade one of them.
wait until the trade deadline for trading Dodson, the writing is on the wall
Why? Then you have to cut a young player with a lot of upside.
we don’t have any young players, that might get cut, that have a lot of upside
you keep until the trade deadline because you want some exp, so you don’t repeat what happened on D to start 2025
BBM,
So you’re saying maybe we should’ve used one of our three third round picks on an OL/OT? 🙂
100%
Or end of 4th round instead of Kyle Louis who has not done much in TC so far. We will see what he does at safety. He was okay in PS2 at safety but has made no plays that have stood out.
RIP Dolly Parton
I can’t say I’m a huge fan of her music genre but I loved her saucy attitude and humor. A legend 😢
Feel the same way Herd. RIP Dolly
RIP, Dolly. Like Herd, I was never a fan of her music genre, but she was classy, kind, and very charitable by all accounts: a winner. She is Americana… a true icon. She will be dearly missed.
😢
RIP Dolly
@JFowlerESPN
The Dolphins are releasing G/T Jamaree Salyer with an injury settlement, per source. The team previously placed him on season-ending IR (knee). Salyer, who started 40 games for the Chargers, plans to be healthy and sign with a team in-season.
Not a loss really. He wasn’t having a good TC before the injury.
really? Not a loss? Have you seen our backup OL
He wasn’t any better. Maybe slightly ahead of Heck.
Dolly was actually a very accomplished song writer to go along with her singing. She was the whole package. Very talented person. Sad to see she passed.
when I saw Ewers at the beginning of the month, I thought of Tua. Slow lofted balls, without Tua’s ball placement and anticipation
say Bell catches 3 of 4 targets for 35 yards vs Atlanta, and looks the part. Who is our #1 WR week 1?
Douglas
I wonder how our backup QBs have effected Tutu’s camp. I mean he’s a speed player matched with QBs with weenie arms. Didn’t bother Tyreek, but he’s no Tyreek
wonder what Willis thinks of him. Does he have any confidence in him?
I don’t think Hafley said anything to Willis.
https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/dolphins-coach-sends-strong-message-195202986.html
a reason to gather the team to pep them up would be because people aren’t doing their jobs, like not giving effort
its the dog days of camp, some are likely just going thru the motions
The title is so deceiving compared to the article. Like you said, I don’t think Hafley sent ANY message to Willis. The “pep talk” was Most likely Malik’s idea and ultimately, it was a waste of practice time.
“Midway through practice, Willis gathered the offensive players in a big huddle for what seemed like a pretty animated pep talk. Unfortunately for Willis and the rest of the offense, things didn’t get much better after that.”
Jackson Woodard keeps showing up. I like seeing players who earn their way by making it impossible for coaches to cut them.
he’s showing up against 2nd and 3rd stringers, if that matters
I think he’s a keeper on a team, that doesn’t have close to 53 keepers

Roster Moves | We have claimed wide receiver Ryan Miller off waivers from the New York Giants and waived wide receiver Tahj Washington.
Ryan Miller: 6’2″, 221 pounds.
4.52 40-time.
we need a little experience for insurance, hopefully we won’t have to break in case of emergency
he’s 26, fits with size and age
I knew Taj wasn’t going to make it through camp.
OUT with the tiny, speed-demon WRs
IN with the taller, bigger-bodied, blocking WRs with a semblance of speed.
“We are not going to have a room full of 5’9″ wide receivers…I can tell you that” – Jon Eric Sullivan
I mis-quoted
“We will make a conscientious effort to maybe be a little bigger in that room,” “Waddle and Malik (Washington) will help (the room). To say we’re going to have a room of 5-9 guys would be a lie.”
What’s going on with Chris Bell right now is so huge for us.
this is there first test: is he ready?
I don’t have expectations about winning games, but getting young players on the field is really important in 2026. So hopefully they evaluated this right and he’s ready for playing time
if I see Bell, Douglas, Chris Johnson, Proctor, Rodriguez, Kacmerek, and Kyle Louis getting g playing time this season, I won’t care if we are winning or losing games
I feel the same way
Really sad day. We lost an American angel in the wonderful Dolly Parton. Thank you for the light and music and may you rest in peace. We will always love you.

I wonder how our backup QBs have effected Tutu’s camp.
——
Not at all. He was rolling with the 1’s and 2’s early on in practice and done much of nothing. If anything, he negatively affected the backup QB’s dropping balls that were thrown on the money.
the practice I saw he had Heck playing RT, every play tge LDE was coming around the end putting pressure on him
So Heck giving up pressures to the LDE causes Tutu to drop passes. Interesting
Dolphins sign 5’11” 185 RB Cole Bennett, recently cut by Chicago.
I remember him from “Under The Radar Prospects” back prior to the draft.

I remember, thanks! It should be a rod with an empty hook. This year has not been a good one for me fishing. lol
Apparently the Dolphins brought in 3 long snappers to work out yesterday. I don’t think there is an issue with the one on the roster. I think they are going to do what they did in the past. Our current LS will get cut and we will roll with none on the final 53 to create an extra roster spot for the final 53.
Then, they will sign a LS to the practice squad to elevate to the active roster each game. Once they elevate him the 3rd time they will just keep him on the active roster or just release him and sign a different one to the PS to elevate each game.
May not be that way all season, but definitely think that is the direction they are going initially to keep an extra player.
I think maybe they do it to keep 9 OL or I heard Grant might or might not be ready for week 1 even though they say he is still week to week. Maybe they use that spot to keep DT Cooper.
I could see them using that sot for an OL, RB, DT, LB or safety. Maybe someone not even on the roster yet.
Heck, they should do it with the punter position also. Nobody is going to poach our punter off the PS. lol
true that
the way your post started…we could also do that with Heck😜

LOL @ Mock drafts before the season even starts. That said, I would break my TV by throwing my remote through it if this were to occur.
I would take this trade. Though, who’s to say Smith doesn’t go at #2 or #3. Then I would be pissed.
We need the QB before taking a WR. MO has not changed in that regard.
News, notes and observations from the Dolphins’ final training camp practice on Wednesday:
▪ Though he wasn’t in uniform, the Dolphins added running back Coleman Bennett, an undrafted rookie who spent time with the Chicago Bears this summer. Before being waived this week, Coleman Bennett had four carries for 10 yards for the Bears in preseason, including a three-yard TD against Cleveland.
▪ Linebacker Jacob Rodriguez and running back Donovan Edwards joined the list of players missing practice, a group that already included defensive linemen Zach Sieler and Kenneth Grant; tight ends Ben Sims and Will Kacmarek; linebacker Ronnie Harrison; and edge players Cameron Goode, Robert Beal and Trey Moore. Goode and Beal are doing rehab assignments.
▪ Linebacker Jordyn Brooks, nursing a leg injury, increased his participation and did 11-on-11 red zone work before sitting out a portion of practice. Coach Jeff Hafley has said that his status is not in question for the Sept. 13 opener at Las Vegas. But the Dolphins want to be careful with the leader of their defense.
Rookie tight end Seydou Traore also was back on the field after missing two practices.
▪ Notes from 11-on-11 work, much of it in the red zone: Carlos Washington Jr., who continues to push for a roster spot, gained 4 yards on an outside run… Quinn Ewers’ deep ball to Chris Bell landed out of bounds. Bell fell to the ground after contact with A.J. Green but seemed fine…
A Josh Uche pressure flushed Malik Wilis out of the pocket, and Willis gained 6 yards on the subsequent scramble. Uche then beat Austin Jackson on a pressure…
Rookie receiver Caleb Douglas had a 12-yard touchdown catch against Chris Johnson in red zone drills. Douglas pushed off in the end zone but was not called for offensive pass interference…
Willis hit Malik Washington for a 7-yard touchdown after rolling to the right… Willis then scrambled for a touchdown on fourth-and-3 after the pocket collapsed.
Keith Cooper Jr., continuing a very strong training camp, stopped Carlos Washington for a 1-yard gain..
▪ More from 11-on-11 work: Ewers hit Carlos Washington for a 9-yard reception.
Major Burns intercepted Ewers, in the end zone on a pass intended for Terrace Marshall Jr. That’s two interceptions for Ewers in two practices since returning from a groin injury that sidelined him for a week. What the Dolphins do at No. 2 quarterback suddenly has an element of suspense…
Ewers then rebounded with a 7-yard TD throw to Marshall, who pushed off Alex Austin….
Safety Dante Trader Jr. did a nice job setting the edge on a screen to De’Von Achane that gained 5 yards.
Willis hit Tutu Atwell for a 15-yard completion. Atwell has had an underwhelming month…
Tight end Greg Dulcich then dropped a pass from Willis. Linebacker Tyrel Dodson, back from an undisclosed injury, was slow to get up but remained in…
Undrafted rookie receiver Donoven McCulley used his chest to make a nice catch from Ewers on a slant, with Ethan Bonner in coverage. McCulley is a long shot to make the 53…
Burns, trying to make his case for the No. 4 safety job (unless you count multiposition rookie Kyle Louis as a safety), stopped rookie receiver Kevin Coleman Jr. 1 yard short of a first down…
Cornerback Miles Battle broke up Ewers’ pass to Marshall….
Dodson stopped Achane after a 5-yard run….
Douglas then dropped a slant from Willis in a situational period. It has been a relatively quiet past week-and-a-half for Douglas…
Willis completed a pass to Malik Washington throwing across his body, a play that got the offense to the 1-yard line in a situational period. Time then expired before the offense got set up for another play.
I think Tutu is out celebrating tonight, not because camp is done because he caught a pass at practice today
▪ Linebacker Jacob Rodriguez and running back Donovan Edwards joined the list of players missing practice, a group that already included defensive linemen Zach Sieler and Kenneth Grant; tight ends Ben Sims and Will Kacmarek; linebacker Ronnie Harrison; and edge players Cameron Goode, Robert Beal and Trey Moore. Goode and Beal are doing rehab assignments.
The sideline must look like a freaking spin cycle class! They may have had to hire additional equipment staff just to move all those stationary bikes to the sidelines!! LOL 10% of the 90 man roster (7.5% of the 53 man roster) are not practicing.
Probably looks like a spin class out there. LOL
That was the last practice of TC and last practice open to the media until OTA’s next year.
Not included in Barry Jackson’s report above or just a different take from Poupart:
Running backs Ollie Gordon II and Donovan Edwards were not spotted at practice. Tight end Cole Turner, who was injured in practice Tuesday, was not at practice.
The interception came courtesy of safety Major Burns on a pass from Ewers intended for wide receiver Terrace Marshall Jr. Burns had good coverage all the way and jumped at the last second to pick off the pass as Ewers tried to loft it over him to the back of the end zone. This was more about a great defensive play than a bad pass.
Ewers had an up-and-down practice, though it was better than most of his work this preseason. He overshot rookie Kevin Coleman Jr. along the sideline, though he was well covered by Alex Austin on the play.
Willis had another touchdown pass, that one to Washington after he scrambled to his right on a play where Uche’s bull rush pushed tackle Austin Jackson almost back into Willis’ lap.
On the next snap, Chop Robinson beat Patrick Paul at the line, but Willis escaped the pocket and scrambled for a touchdown.
RIP Tim Curry

@CameronWolfe
NFL & NFLPA have agreed to updated system for player on-field fouls. Notable: Players with 3 ‘greater emphasis’ offenses in a season get 1 game suspension. They are: hip drop tackle, horse collar tackle, launching, hit on defenseless player, blindside block.
good, let the dirty players sit. Each injury takes away from the game and closer to the USFL or UFL, whatever they go by this year
Agreed, Steve.
@JFowlerESPN
NFL eliminating Pro Bowl games, but will still name Pro Bowlers.

🤔
Perhaps they should just do away with Pro-Bowlers, then? It’s basically a popularity competition, after all.
All Pro is the highest level and everyone knows it. That’s it.
100% agreed. They should probably just do away with Pro-Bowlers.
It would be tough for the league to just do away with Pro-bowl selections because MANY players contracts have bonuses and escalators based upon the achievement of making the game.

Wow! Toba is confident! Confident the Dolphins are going to SUCK!
I know a bunch of you are hoping for this, but it just makes me queezy to think we will squander this mulligan year and not come away with a franchise QB.
I just don’t have faith that a guy who has been sitting behind Jordan Love and how was REALLY BAD his first couple of seasons is going to miraculously turn it around and be a top 10 QB.
https://dolphinstalk.com/2026/08/mock-drafts-malik-willis-miami-dolphins/
I fear, like a whipped dog flinches when you raise your hand, that we are going to miss out and maintain our mediocrity until Silman fires Sully 4 years from now.
Did any of you guys play Grand Theft Auto back in the day? Well, the long awaited GTA 6 is finally going to be released this November 19th (the last game in the series was released 2013!!) and Netflix has a “Grand Theft Auto VI: An Extended Look” special scheduled to be released at Noon Pacific time (3pm Eastern)
I am going to check it out when I get home tonight. I will probably buy the game in November, as it supposedly has my old neighborhood where I grew up mapped. I played the crap out of that game back in the day. I loved the whole play anyway you want to play, open world, get away with what ever you can get away with scheme.
The article Rock put up is full of BS, but it says Willis has had an “excellent” camp. Is that even remotely true? I haven’t paid much attention but it sure hasn’t sounded like he’s been excellent.
it depends on if you listen to people like TD or if you listen to people like Poupart
He has had moments where he looked great. But mostly, he looks OK
The fact that he is much more mobile than the last guy has people excited But he’s basically been completing 60% of his passes through practices
Rock,
Thanks. That’s kinda the sense I got from the stuff you guys post here.
My guess is Willis ends up being a highly paid backup down the line. I’d be interested to hear from our staff why they feel so strongly that he’ll be a top 10 QB….if that wasn’t just reporters lying. That sounds…hopeful.
I don’t know. He just looks like a fish out of water to me most of the time.
Like Channing Tindal?
Yes
he looks a little rough around the edges, but has good instincts. The type of player Hafley has been talking about in positive ways. Neither he or Moore looked refined yet, hopefully it comes sooner than later
Tu Tu Atwell back to Rams for Jarquez Hunter

I’m feeling optimistic this morning
I’ve watched a few game replays now. Kyle Louis’ play confused the hell out of me. I was wondering if he was even getting lined up right several times. He looks flat footed and slow to react. He tries to tackle with his arms too much. He was on the wrong side of guys a lot. You’ll watch plays where 21 guys are moving and he’s standing still.
I know he’s a tweener so maybe he’s kinda struggling with being that hybrid LB/S but he looked very rough. I’m not really sure where he’d even play. Is there a plan?
don’t agree
sure he’s standing flat footed at times, but then he shoots to the ball. Several instances in the video above
what he’s doing is waiting for commitment from the ball carrier
there are some plays in the passing D, where he seems confused or there’s miscommunication, but he always seems to use his athleticism to get back into the play, it’s what I called rough around the edges above. He’s a rookie playing multiple positions, give him a break
I agree with Randy. 100% – “I’m not really sure where he’d even play. Is there a plan?”
I’ll take that.
https://www.miamidolphins.com/news/dolphins-make-trade-with-l-a-rams
There’s the 3rd… dammit. 😢
@ABC
Peter Cullen, a voice actor who starred as Optimus Prime in “Transformers” and as Eeyore in “Winnie the Pooh,” has died at the age of 85.
hard to tell from Spotrac, looks like we saved just over 1m for Tutu, his salary was guaranteed and likely wouldn’t have made the 53 or he makes the 53 we pay him and performs like he’s been performing
almost seems like he didn’t try, like he didn’t want to play for our chitshow, his contract was guaranteed, so he just dogged it to be traded/releases
That was a good savings as it will pay Jarquez Hunters salary of 1m. We are just out 187K dead money on Atwell.
if Jarquez makes our 53, which isn’t a given, if not we save the money for a player who didn’t want to play for us, at least that’s how I see it
steve,
I haven’t seen much on Louis and didn’t know who he was in college. In the NFL, is he a LB? A safety? Is he just a tweener guy you use in the box? Just looking at his stats, he played a lot of college football…over 30 games. Is this all new to him?
It’s how his team used him in college so it shouldn’t be new to him.
so there’s no adjustment period to go from college to the NFL, got it🤪
Nice trade deal getting rid of Atwell and getting a nice RB prospect. He’s 5’10 211. This preseason 12 carries for 68 yards and 1 TD.
I like this trade. Sully probably liked him last year. He might become #2.
There’s a reason some guys are mid round picks. They need coaching and development. We can’t expect top level play right away. It’s new for everyone, even the coaches. Everything is new in Miami.
I truly don’t know much about Louis, and I was just asking questions because guys around here follow this stuff a lot closer than I do these days. I specifically watched a few of our rookies in our PS games that I knew little about, and I had questions.
The NFL has become a league of tweeners these days, so I assumed he’d fit in there somewhere.
Didn’t somebody post here that Hafley said he wasn’t going to have a locker room full of 5’ 9” WRs? How tall is Atwell? Lol
HC Haf on the SAS Show…
Poor Hafley
I wouldn’t subject anybody to having to watch Stephen A Smith forget about having to actually sit in a room with that piece of shit.
ESPN fire him instead of Ryan Clark. Hundred million dollars for that fool is ridiculous
I’m no fan of SAS, either… never have been.
@AdamSchefter
Packers are signing free-agent TE Jonnu Smith to a one-year deal, as @Schultz_Report also reported.
Small sample size, but I like what I’m seeing here. Imagine him behind our starting O-Line…
I like what I see also. He does not go down easy and somewhat of a punisher.
My only concern is how ‘tall’ he runs… ala Eddie George. If he can keep the ball secure (Fox Sports has him with 5 fumbles on 539 rushing attempts in college, not horrific), he could be a force.
He may have a short shelf life in the NFL with the way he runs, but he’s certainly intriguing.
He led the SEC in YPC as a RB with 6.4 in ’24.
I like this trade!
its PS and he’s going against backups, but whatever, he’s got moves, gets upfield quick (I’m looking at you Ollie) and runs with a purpose
I’d like to say you don’t trade for someone this late in PS and not put him on the 53. Being traded for a guaranteed contract you were going to cut nullified that logic
He ran the same way in college.
sometimes you just need a chance
Per PFF, Hunter has been the highest graded RB in pass protection this preseason.
Tahj Washington signed with the Eagles.
I wonder if Ryan Miller has a chance to win the WR6 spot over Reagor and Henning.
JMO, but I believe so.
why not, those 2 aren’t exactly lighting up up
6’2 221
4.52 40 time
3 TDs in 14 career catches, 24 games played 🤣
not a lot of experience, but not none. I think someone that size needs a chance to provide a niche. He’s a longshot, that fits their size preference
we need a bread and butter receiver, Washington might be able to handle it. He’s not dynamic enough for my liking. Bell can do it too and my preference, just not this year, don’t want him to get beat up
BBM,
Have you seen Tankathon’s latest mock draft (updated 2 days ago)? At Round 3 Pick 66, they have us drafting my guy DUCE ROBlNSON (6’6″, 230).
There is certainly hype going around about our size credentials regarding WRs.
We may end up looking like the ’07 San Diego Chargers with the size/blocking emphasized at the WR and TE positions.
Achane could be their LaDainian Tomlinson.

Not usually my style.. but I went through game by game , and was hard pressed to find a third win … we have a tough schedule !!!
I think the most significant part about the trade is that it means the Dolphins are confident about the Bell, Douglas, Washington, Copeland core of young WRs
IT’S GAME DAY BITCHES!!
Go Dolphins!!!

The knock was his projected 40 time. I do think he would be a good option as a receiving TE. He is a good blocking WR already and wouldn’t be a liability there. You could really line him up anywhere.

I have to say of all the rookie QB’s, Ty Simpson has looked the best this preseason completing 74.3% of passes for 192 yards, 1 TD, 0 INT’s and 0 sacks.
