McFarland signed a contract with the Dolphins on Monday, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.
McFarland was most recently with the San Antonio Brahmas of the UFL this spring after his contract with the Steelers expired at the end of the 2023 NFL season. The Maryland product had seen limited work with Pittsburgh in each of the past three seasons and will now have a new opportunity in Miami. His addition comes as fellow running back Chris Brooks was placed in concussion protocol.
