On Monday, Jordan Schultz reported that the Miami Dolphins are set to sign a former New York Jets draft pick. The news comes after the Dolphins held their mandatory minicamp last week. The Dolphins are looking to boost their roster before training camp next month.
The Miami Dolphins had to lose a few key defenders
Due to their salary cap issues, the Dolphins lost a few defensive players before free agency this March. They focused on adding help for the secondary. One of the Dolphins’ best signings was former Buffalo Bills safety Jordan Poyer. He’ll team up with a secondary that includes Jalen Ramsey.
In an AFC packed with wide receiver talent, the Dolphins need to find as much help as possible if they want to beat teams like the Kansas City Chiefs in the postseason.
The Dolphins signed Marcus Maye
Per Schultz, the Dolphins are signing cornerback Marcus Maye.
Former Jets and Saints safety Marcus Maye is signing with the #Dolphins, per source. Maye had multiple teams interested but loves the roster in Miami and wants to be part of a Super Bowl contender — which he believes Miami has.
The Jets selected Maye in the second round of the 2017 NFL Draft. At 31, he’s recorded 409 tackles, 4.5 sacks, eight interceptions, and five forced fumbles. The six-foot, 207-pound cornerback has started in all 77 games he’s appeared in during his seven-year NFL career.
NFL fans’ initial reaction to the signing
Wow major! Dolphins doubled down in Safety adding a stud in Marcus Maye!
