Miami Dolphins list of cuts: Update 7
By Brian Miller
The Miami Dolphins have not officially announced their cuts but that doesn’t mean that they haven’t made any. According to several in the local media the teams coaching staff were still reviewing position battles last night. As well they should. The Dolphins roster has yet to officially change but we do know that several members of the team have been told they will not be back.
Our list of players will continue to grow as we find out more news. For now, here are the cuts and like yesterday, watch the title on refresh for updates as they become available.
In addition to those names below, there are reports that insiders are learning that Don Jones will be released and that the Dolphins will carry six WR’s into the season meaning Matt Hazel will likely make the roster. That is not however confirmed.
In other NFL releases, the Patriots have released former Miami Dolphin running back Jonas Gray and the Bills have released QB Matt Cassel.
UPDATE 7: Dolphins release Mike Gillislee
Dolphins released running back Mike Gillislee, per league source. So maybe no need to place Ajayi on IR.
