The Miami Dolphins will need to seek other options for edge reinforcements after former Buffalo Bills defensive end AJ Epenesa signed with the Philadelphia Eagles. Epenesa visited the Dolphins during the offseason but ultimately chose the Eagles, who are considered strong contenders in the NFC East. Miami's edge defense is in transition, especially following a disappointing 2025 season. The Dolphins are now left to rely on players like Chop Robinson and Joshua Uche to fill the void left by Epenesa.
