The Miami Dolphins are reportedly in talks with the Green Bay Packers regarding cornerback Carrington Valentine. Dolphins head coach Jeff Hafley’s prior experience as the Packers' defensive coordinator could influence the team's interest in Valentine, who has started 30 of 49 games since being drafted.
