Dolphins trade for Caedan Wallace ahead of preseason opener

Summary

The Miami Dolphins have acquired offensive lineman Caedan Wallace from the New England Patriots for a 2028 sixth-round pick and a 2029 seventh-round pick. This move is part of Miami's roster rebuild under new head coach Jeff Hafley, moving away from a veteran-heavy team to a younger roster. The Dolphins aim to find unproven talent and maximize potential as they prepare for a preseason matchup against the Washington Commanders on Friday. Wallace was a third-round selection in the 2024 NFL Draft but was expected to be waived by the Patriots. His arrival allows the Dolphins to continue shaping their lineup ahead of the season.
