Campbell will have a new home in New York with the Giants after spending the last five years of his NFL career with Miami.

Rotowire
Bonner and the Dolphins agreed to terms on a one-year deal Friday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
The 26-year-old has officially agreed to remain in Miami after spending the first three seasons of his NFL career with the team. Across 14 contests in 2025, Bonner tallied 15 total tackles and two passes defensed, including one interception, while playing just 91 defensive snaps. He's expected to compete for a depth role in the Dolphins' secondary ahead of the 2026 season.

Chiefs' Kader Kohou: Inks deal with Kansas City
Rotowire
The Chiefs signed Kohou on Thursday, NFL reporter Jordan Schultz reports.
Kohou missed the entirety of the 2025 campaign after suffering a partially torn ACL during training camp last summer. He was medically cleared for all football activities earlier this month and should have a relatively normal offseason. The Chiefs badly needed the cornerback help after losing both Trent McDuffie and Jaylen Watson to the Rams this week.

Dolphins' Matthew Butler: Staying in Miami
Rotowire
Butler and the Dolphins agreed to terms on a contract Thursday.
After spending the first three years of his NFL career in Las Vegas, Butler moved to Miami for the 2025 season and was an impactful backup defensive tackle. Across 12 appearances, the Tennessee product logged 213 defensive snaps and recorded 12 total tackles. He's expected to assume another depth role on the Dolphins' defensive line during the 2026 campaign.

Bills' Bradley Chubb: Moving on to division rival
Rotowire
Chubb agreed to terms Wednesday on a three-year, $43.5 million contract with the Bills, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Chubb, who began his career in Denver but was traded to Miami during the 2022 season, now moves on from the Dolphins after four years to join a contender in the AFC East. The veteran pass rusher totaled 11.0 sacks in 2023, the second-highest total of his career, but missed all of 2024 due to a torn ACL before rebounding nicely with 8.5 sacks across 17 regular-season appearances in 2025. He will join Ed Oliver (knee), Greg Rousseau and Michael Hoecht (Achilles) in Buffalo's deep but potentially fragile pass-rush rotation under new defensive coordinator Jim Leonhard.

Dolphins' Willie Gay: Re-signing with Miami
Rotowire
The Dolphins are set to re-sign Gay, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Gay signed a one-year contract with the Dolphins for the 2025 season, and it is likely the team has agreed to yet another one-year deal to keep the linebacker through 2026. He participated in all 17 regular-season games for the Dolphins in 2025, logging 20 tackles (10 solo), including 2.0 sacks. The 28-year-old also managed to pick up two passes defensed, creating a decent amount of havoc for the mere 131 defensive snaps he played.

Patriots' K.J. Britt: Heading to New England
Rotowire
Britt is slated to sign a one-year contract with the Patriots, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Britt heads to a division rival after his one-year stint with the Dolphins. He handled a depth role across 17 regular-season appearances in 2025, totaling 35 tackles (12 solo). He projects to handle a similar rotational role in New England, while also potentially acting as a significant contributor on special teams.

Jets' Minkah Fitzpatrick: Headed to Jets
Rotowire
The Dolphins are slated to trade Fitzpatrick to the Jets in exchange for a 2026 seventh-round pick, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
In 14 regular-season games with Miami last season, Fitzpatrick recorded 82 tackles (59 solo) and one interception. The addition of Fitzpatrick will bolster the Jets secondary ahead of the 2026 campaign, with the acquisition of the 29-year-old safety coming at an affordable cost to the franchise in terms of draft capital. Meanwhile, per his agent Drew Rosenhaus, Fitzpatrick is set to ink a three-year, $40 million deal with his new team in the wake of the trade.

Dolphins' Cameron Goode: Re-signs with Miami
Rotowire
The Dolphins re-signed Goode on Wednesday.
Goode appeared in all 17 regular-season games last season, making one start, and recorded 22 tackles (eight solo) and one pass breakup. He logged 108 snaps on defense and another 318 on special teams.

Dolphins' Kader Kohou: Deemed fully cleared from injury
Rotowire
Kohou's agents deemed him fully cleared medically Monday from the partially torn ACL he suffered late last July, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Kohou missed all of last season due to the injury, which took place during training camp. Prior to getting hurt, Kohou was slated to work as the Dolphins' starting slot cornerback. He's now set to be an unrestricted free agent, so being declared fully healthy should boost his appeal to teams interested in his services.

Dolphins' Ethan Bonner: Staying in Miami
Rotowire
The Dolphins tendered a contract to Bonner on Monday as an exclusive rights free agent.
As an exclusive rights free agent, Bonner cannot negotiate a contract with a team as long as the tender is in place, so he'll suit up for the Dolphins in 2026. The Stanford played mostly on special teams in 2025 but did see some rotational snaps in the secondary, with Bonner finishing with 15 tackles (eight solo), two pass defenses (one interception) and one fumble recovery across 14 regular-season games.

Dolphins' Minkah Fitzpatrick: Miami listening to offers
Rotowire
Speaking at the NFL Scouting Combine on Tuesday, new Dolphins GM Jon-Eric Sullivan said everything is on the table with Fitzpatrick (calf), and Miami is listening to trade offers for the safety, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.
Fitzpatrick has one year remaining on his contract and carries a base salary of $15.6 million to go with an $18.849 million cap number. That doesn't make a whole lot of sense for a rebuilding Dolphins team. The 29-year-old safety started all 14 regular-season games in which he appeared last season, recording 82 tackles (59 solo) including his first career sack, six pass breakups with just one interception, two fumble recoveries and one forced fumble. That qualified as a down season for Fitzpatrick, who made three consecutive Pro Bowls from 2022-24 with the Steelers.

Bradley Chubb: Let go by Miami
Rotowire
The Dolphins are releasing Chubb on Monday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Chubb is among a number of key veterans being cut by Miami on Monday in an effort to balance the team's salary cap. The veteran pass rusher, who will turn 30 in June, has been steady over the last two seasons, having totaled 19.5 sacks in that span while only missing one regular-season game. He should have little difficulty finding a starting role elsewhere in the league.

Dolphins' Kenneth Grant: Room for growth after rookie year
Rotowire
Grant tallied 33 tackles (15 solo), including 2.0 sacks, across 17 regular-season appearances with the Dolphins in 2025. He also had one pass defensed.
Grant, a 2025 first-round pick, struggled early in his rookie season but showed some flashes down the stretch. Despite his improvements late in the year, the former Michigan standout never quite developed into a reliable starter for Miami's interior defensive line, with his struggles against the run being especially disappointing considering Grant's 6-foot-3, 335-pound frame. If Grant is able to take a step forward in his development under new head coach Jeff Hafley this offseason, though, he'll have clear path to opening 2026 as a starter alongside Zach Sieler.

Dolphins' Jordan Phillips: Tallies 34 tackles in Year 1
Rotowire
Phillips made 34 tackles (eight solo) while suiting up for all 17 regular-season games with the Dolphins in 2025.
Phillips, a 2025 fifth-round pick, saw consistent playing time as a rookie but struggled tremendously against the run. Despite being more impressive as a pass rusher, he failed to translate any of his seven total pressures into a sack. Phillips will work to take a step forward in Year 2 under new head coach Jeff Hafley, though his upside is noticeably capped due to the presence of both Zach Sieler and Kenneth Grant at defensive tackle.

Dolphins' Ifeatu Melifonwu: Staring down free agency
Rotowire
Melifonwu made a career-high 53 tackles (31 solo), including 1.0 sacks, across 16 regular-season appearances with the Dolphins in 2025. He also had one pass defensed, including one interception.
Melifonwu inked a one-year deal with Miami last March and appeared locked into a starting gig at safety for the team, but he ultimately played more than 70 percent of defensive snaps in only five of his 16 appearances. The 26-year-old will figure to compete for a rotational role elsewhere in the league in free agency.

Dolphins' Ashtyn Davis: Career-high tackles in 2025
Rotowire
Davis tallied 65 tackles (43 solo) across 15 regular-season games with the Dolphins in 2025. He also had four passes defensed, including one interception, and one forced fumble.
Davis played out the 2025 campaign on a one-year, $1.22 million contract with Miami, setting him up to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason. The 29-year-old safety was relatively unreliable in coverage despite handling an every-down role when healthy for the Dolphins in 2025, making it likely that he'll have to compete during the offseason in order to secure a sizeable workload again for 2026.

Dolphins' Zach Sieler: Production dips in 2025
Rotowire
Sieler made 47 tackles (29 solo), including 5.5 sacks, across 17 regular-season games in 2025. He also had one pass defensed and one fumble recovery.
Sieler played two more games in 2025 than he did in 2024, but he nonetheless finished with just more than half the 10.0 sack total he had managed in each of Miami's prior seasons. The 30-year-old defensive tackle is under contract with the Dolphins through 2029, but the team will have a potential "out" in his contract after the 2026 campaign, making it potentially crucial for Sieler to bounce back to his usual production level next season.

Dolphins' Bradley Chubb: Wraps 2025 season with 8.5 sacks
Rotowire
Chubb tallied 47 tackles (24 solo), including 8.5 sacks, across 17 regular-season appearances in 2025. He also had two forced fumbles and one fumble recovery.
Chubb saw his production totals decline compared to last season, despite the fact that he played one more game in 2025. Across 16 regular-season appearances in 2024, he managed 73 tackles (45 solo), including 11.0 sacks, plus two passes defensed, six forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries. Chubb will look to rebound in 2026, when he will play out the final season of his contract with the Dolphins.

Dolphins' Tyrel Dodson: Surpassed 100 tackles in 2025
Rotowire
Dodson tallied 129 tackles (72 solo), including 5.0 sacks, across 16 regular-season appearances in 2025. He also had three passes defensed, including one interception, plus one forced fumble and one fumble recovery.
Dodson managed the first 100-tackle season of his NFL career while joining Jordyn Brooks as the only every-down starter in Miami's linebacker corps. He's slated to play out the final year of his contract with the Dolphins in 2026. Dodson will be a solid bet to reach the 100-tackle threshold again in 2026 as long as the offseason additions Miami brings to the linebacker corps don't threaten to infringe on his starting role.
