• Dolphins' Jake Bailey: Staying in Miami

  03/08/2024 • By RotoWire

  The Dolphins re-signed Bailey on a two-year, $4.2 million deal Friday, per Jordan Schultz of BleacherReport.com. Bailey has extended his stay in Miami after coming over from New England last offseason. The All-Pro punter will make $2.1 annually over the next two seasons, but he can make up to $5 million in total with incentives. With kicker Jason Sanders also under contract through 2025, Miami is expected to retain two core special-teamers for years to come.

• Dolphins' Jake Bailey: Headed to Miami

  Bailey signed with the Dolphins on Friday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. The former Pro Bowler was released by the Patriots a week ago and will stay in the AFC East after landing a deal with the Dolphins. The 2019 fifth-round pick was suspended (and subsequently reinstated) by New England at the end of the 2022 regular season following a disagreement about his readiness to return from injured reserve, but he appears to have put the back issue from last year behind him and will look to return to form in Miami. Bailey is currently the only punter on the Dolphins' active roster, but they'll presumably add some competition ahead of training camp this summer.

  The Patriots released Bailey (back) on Friday. Bailey was suspended (and subsequently reinstated) by the Patriots at the end of the regular season following a disagreement with the team about his readiness to return from injured reserve. That the 2019 fifth-round pick was let go without an injury designation suggests he's fully recovered from the back issue that ended his 2022 campaign, but it's unclear how much attention he'll draw as a free agent this offseason.
