Miami Dolphins claim seven players off waiver wire after roster cuts

The Miami Dolphins added seven players from the waiver wire following final roster reductions to 53 players this past weekend. This total is the highest among all NFL teams, with the acquisitions including three defensive backs and quarterback Malik Willis. These moves arrive as the team works to stabilize its secondary and prepare for the upcoming regular season opener. Head coach Jeff Hafley must now integrate a group where 38 percent of the roster consists of rookies or players recently acquired through waivers. The team faces a challenging start to the home schedule, with games scheduled against Patrick Mahomes, Joe Burrow, and Derrick Maye. Despite the turnover, the Dolphins remain committed to their rebuilding process following a significant restructuring of the team after last season.
