Miami Dolphins Fans Exhilarated As Team Set To Finally Elevate Huge Summer Signing To 53 Man Roster

Some overdue good news may well be heading the way of the injury-stricken Miami Dolphins.

Not only have the Dolphins lost star quarterback, Tua Tagovailoa, to what may now be a career ending nasty 3rd career concussion; but they are also short both starting edge rushers, Jaelan Phillips and Bradley Chubb, as well as guard, Isaiah Wynn.

All of these players are set to remain on the sidelines for the foreseeable future, as Miami tries to recover from feels to be a season already on teetering on the edge of finality just 4 games in.

However, the Dolphins announced a roster transaction earlier on Friday afternoon in which former Green Bay Packers fan favorite, Tim Boyle, has been officially cut, per Adam Schefter.

Tim Boyle Cut: Path Paved For Elevation Of Star Wide Receiver?

And whilst Dolphins’ fans were far from impressed with Boyle’s brief appearance against the Seahawks in Week 3, the main reason for their jubilation in this move is that it opens a space for a potentially very recognizable face; a face that was just recently signed this offseason.

Yes, Odell Beckham Jr. (or perhaps starting corner, Cam Smith), are set to be re-added to the 53 man roster, implying that either one of their debuts could be imminent – although Week 5 will likely be too early for either.

Although receiver is the least of Miami’s problems at this point, with both the defense and quarterback position providing less than desirable returns. But, on the flip side, with a trio of Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle and OBJ in Mike McDaniel’s delicate West Coast offensive scheme, any quarterback worth his weight in salt should be able to make at least something happen.

If not, perhaps it is time to turn (back) to this man.
