McDonald could see time at linebacker in 2019, Hal Habib of The Palm Beach Post reports.
With Bobby McCain lining up at safety rather than cornerback this spring, the Dolphins are seemingly overstocked on talent in the secondary. Along with McCain, McDonald, Reshad Jones and Minkah Fitzpatrick are also proven commodities on the back end, though Jones and his hefty contract might could be on the trade block. Likely as a result of the logjam at safety, McDonald has been working closer to the line of scrimmage and isn't terribly undersized for those duties, given his listed size of 6-foot-2 and 215 pounds. If McDonald does see more action at linebacker in 2019, the role change could translate to more tackle opportunities.
