Willie Snead: Injury settlement with Miami
The Dolphins released Snead (undisclosed) from the reserve/injured list Saturday with an injury settlement, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Snead caught on with Miami in late July after appearing in four regular-season games for the 49ers in 2023. He caught one pass for 13 yards across his two preseason outings with the Dolphins, but he was set to miss the entire 2024 season after being placed on injured reserve Monday. Now that he's been let go with an injury settlement, Snead will be able to sign with another team once he is fully healthy.

Dolphins' Willie Snead: Lands on season-ending IR
The Dolphins placed Snead (undisclosed) on injured reserve Monday.
Snead landed with Miami early in training camp, but his placement on injured reserve now rules him out for the entire 2024 season, unless he can reach an injury settlement. The nine-year veteran suited up for four regular-season games with the 49ers back in 2023.

Dolphins' Willie Snead: Inks deal with Miami
The Dolphins signed Snead on Wednesday.
Snead, a nine-year NFL veteran who's spent the majority of his career with the Ravens and Saints, has found a new home in Miami. He played just 70 total snaps in four regular-season games with the 49ers in 2023, so he'll likely be competing for a depth role in the Dolphins' wide receiver room as the preseason progresses.

Snead will provide extra depth at receiver for Monday's matchup versus the Ravens as Jauan Jennings (concussion) is out.
