The One Thing The Dolphins CAN'T Do With Their $99.2M Question This Offseason

Описание: Miami Dolphins face a $99 million question: should they absorb Tua Tagovailoa’s entire cap hit in 2026, or pursue a post-June 1 cut to preserve roster flexibility? Kyle Crabbs unpacks the salary cap chaos sparked by ESPN speculation, breaking down the financial and strategic minefield created by past contract deferments for stars like Tyreek Hill and Bradley Chubb.

Key insights include the Dolphins’ shifting approach under new head coach Jeff Hafley and GM Jon-Eric Sullivan, with a focus on football character, leadership, and accountability amid rumors of a major quarterback transition. Hear why locker room culture and clear expectations could define Miami’s next era. Will the Dolphins finally fix their “country club” reputation and tackle their financial hurdles head-on, or are more tough decisions looming in their pursuit of a new franchise signal-caller?
