Miami Dolphins adjust roster and add eight players after final cuts
Summary

The Miami Dolphins made multiple roster adjustments following the NFL's final 53-man roster deadline. General manager Jon-Eric Sullivan oversaw the addition of eight players to the team, including seven via waiver claims. Among the new arrivals is quarterback Brady Cook, who was previously with the New York Jets. The club also filled out the practice squad with seven new players and one returning veteran. These personnel changes represent a continued effort by head coach Jeff Hafley and the front office to reshape the team's identity. Analysts have suggested that the organization remains active in evaluating the market for further depth, including the potential addition of former Dallas Cowboys quarterback Joe Milton III, who is now a free agent.
