Dolphins' K.J. Britt: Not a factor Sunday
K.J. Britt played one defensive snap and 23 special teams snaps during Sunday's 31-6 loss at Cleveland.When Tyrel Dodson sat out with a concussion in Week 6, Britt filled in and ultimately led Miami in tackles. But with Dodson healthy and available again in Week 7, Britt was all but completely phased out of the Miami Dolphins' defensive game plan. He doesn't figure to play a significant role at linebacker unless one of Jordyn Brooks or Dodson is out of the picture.

Dolphins' K.J. Britt: Lands in Miami

Britt signed a one-year contract with the Miami Dolphins on Thursday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.Britt is coming off a career year in Tampa Bay, having racked up 72tackles (40 solo) including 0.5 sacks, plus one pass defensed.

Buccaneers' K.J. Britt: Career numbers in contract year
K.J. Britt supplied 72 tackles (40 solo), including 0.5 sacks, and one defended pass across 14 regular-season games in 2024.Britt moved into a starting role at left inside linebacker in Todd Bowles' defense in 2024 and made good use of the opportunity, recording at least six stops in six contests while logging a career-high 588 snaps. Britt missed three games in Weeks 14 to 16 with an ankle injury, but he otherwise gave a solid accounting of himself in what was the final year of his rookie deal. Given the 2021 fifth-round pick has only one season of extensive play on film, it's possible Britt can be a cost-effective re-signing for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers this offseason unless another team on the open market is willing to pay up for his potential.
