Miami Dolphins Discussion: 2026 NFL Schedule Edition
As the Miami Dolphins enter another season under a new regime and navigate significant roster changes, there is a palpable sense of uncertainty surrounding the team. Like many of you, however, I am eager to see how the squad performs once the regular season begins. Miami faces a challenging road ahead, as the team is […]
Dolphins make large donation to Venezuelan relief fund
Last week, a devastating earthquake hit the country of Venezuela, leaving tens of thousands of people missing and a confirmed death toll of over 1,700 people at the time of this writing. On Tuesday morning, the Miami Dolphins announced that through the Miami Dolphins Foundation, the organization and owner Stephen Ross would be donating $100,000 […]
ESPN gives Dolphins high praise in offseason report cards
With just over two months left until the start of next season, the NFL offseason is nearly complete. Free agency and the draft have passed, post-June 1st cuts and trades have largely been completed, and teams are looking forward to Week 1 of the 2026 season. The Miami Dolphins, of course, are one of those […]
Evaluating Jeff Hafley in year 1 – The Splash Zone 6/30/26
Between fans and analysts, there isn’t much hope for the Miami Dolphins this upcoming season after gutting their roster to get younger. This season should be all about laying the foundation under new head coach Jeff Hafley. This team isn’t going to win much, probably. But wins shouldn’t be what we judge Hafley and the […]
Miami Dolphins Discussion: The Greg Dulcich Edition
This time of year, NFL analysts often scramble for storylines during the offseason’s news drought. ESPN, as a dominant force in sports media—particularly following their increased control over the NFL Network—is no exception to this trend. One of those recent storylines on ESPN was who has been the biggest surprise for individual NFL teams this […]
Kadyn Proctor and Chris Johnson impressing Dolphins coaching staff and teammates
The Miami Dolphins had two first round picks in the 2026 NFL Draft — Jon-Eric Sullivan’s first as the team’s new general manager. Offensive lineman Kadyn Proctor was taken with the 12th overall pick, while cornerback Chris Johnson was nabbed with the 27th selection after Miami traded up with the San Francisco 49ers. ESPN’s Marcel […]
Jordyn Brooks has shocking praise for Dolphins rookie linebacker Jacob Rodriguez
The Dolphins rostered the NFL’s leading tackler last season in Jordyn Brooks. The former first round pick in the 2020 NFL Draft had a staggering 183 combined tackles while leading Miami’s defensive unit. His work speaks for himself, however it was the veteran who had some very strong praise for a Dolphins rookie who plays […]
Big expectations for Chris Johnson – The Splash Zone 6/29/26
After being selected in the first round of this year’s NFL Draft, Kadyn Proctor and Chris Johnson are expected to be immediate starters. Proctor should slide right into the left guard spot while Johnson might just be the Miami Dolphins top cornerback. There are high expectations for Johnson, considering what Jeff Hafley outlined what the […]
Dolphins Fans Take On Possible QB Competition
In a recent episode of the Dolphins Collective on YouTube, the discussion centered on OTA performance, noting that QB Malik Willis has lived up to expectations while QB Quinn Ewers has exceeded them. Notably, two of the hosts—Omar Kelly of the Miami Herald and Alain Poupart of Sports Illustrated—who attended all six media-accessible OTA sessions, […]
Miami Dolphins Fans Sound Off On Stefon Diggs Rumors
This past week, I mentioned that there were rumors that our Miami Dolphins were considering signing Stefon Diggs to help shore up the wide receivers room. I then asked the following question: Are you in favor of the Miami Dolphins kicking the tires on and possibly signing wideout Stefon Diggs for the 2026 season, and […]
Is the Dolphins receiver room that bad – The Splash Zone 6/27/26
National analysts do not have high hopes for the Miami Dolphins this season and they are also not impressed with the supporting cast on offense, mainly the wide receiver unit. The team lacks a true #1 receiver but has plenty of veterans and rookies that could operate as the second option. This offense right now […]
Would you trade Dolphins linebacker Jordyn Brooks?
Earlier this week, Marcel Louis-Jacques named Dolphins linebacker Jordyn Brooks as the most likely player on the team to receive an extension. He cited the new deals that running back De’Von Achane and center Aaron Brewer signed earlier this offseason when claiming that it’s reasonable to assume Brooks is next in line to get the […]
Miami Dolphins tight end Greg Dulcich growing game as role grows with team
The Miami Dolphins made a discovery last year when they signed free agent tight end Greg Dulcich, first to the practice squad, then to the active roster. In 10 games played, including three starts, he caught 26 passes for 335 yards with one touchdown. He played well enough to earn a new contract with the […]
Could Malik Washington be the Dolphins top receiver – The Splash Zone 6/26/26
The Miami Dolphins are short on star power at the wide receiver position but have plenty of veterans and young players waiting to prove themselves. With Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle no longer on the team, Malik Washington is the only returning starting veteran and could actually carve himself out a role and be the […]
FIFA World Cup 2026: USA vs. Turkey Live Thread
Our regularly scheduled Thursday night Phinsider Question of the Day or answers post will be put on hold for this evening for our live thread covering the United States vs. Turkey World Cup match. The U.S. Men’s National Team kicked off its 2026 World Cup campaign with a dominant 4-1 victory over Paraguay, followed by […]
Malik Willis delayed signing with Dolphins to complete throwing session
The Dolphins are rolling with former third-round pick in the 2022 NFL Draft, Malik Willis, as their quarterback for the 2026 NFL season after the Packers’ backup signed a three-year $67.5 million deal with Miami this offseason. Having former Green Bay executive Jon-Eric Sullivan as the Dolphins’ new general manager certainly helped the team from […]
Dolphins 90 in 90: Can Malik Washington be WR1?
The Miami Dolphins have undergone a roster shakeup this offseason, resetting their salary cap and moving on from several veteran players as they turn to younger players in the rebuild. One of the biggest changeovers has happened in the wide receiver group, where Tyreek Hill was released and Jaylen Waddle was traded. Miami heads into […]
ESPN ranks Dolphins playmakers worst in NFL
We’re officially smack dab in the doldrums of summer when it comes to the National Football League. Free agency has slowed to a crawl, the NFL Draft has come and gone, and teams are on break until late next month when training camps open around the league. With little news to report, media outlets are […]
Jordyn Brooks named as Dolphins player likely to receive extension soon
The Miami Dolphins are undergoing a rebuild of epic proportions under the new leadership team of general manager Jon-Eric Sullivan and head coach Jeff Hafley. While the team’s roster already looks much different than it has in recent years, multiple star players from the past regime have still gotten extensions this offseason. Running back De’Von […]
Miami Dolphins Discussion: Malik Willis Vs. Quinn Ewers Edition
I recently watched a Dolphins Collective YouTube video titled “Clearing the Air on Quinn Ewers vs. Malik Willis.” The show featured Doug of DougliedoWrong (I guess his last name is a secret or he goes by one name à la Prince or Madonna), Tony Dowe of TD Phins Talk, the Miami Herald’s Omar Kelly, and […]
Dolphins dead last in recent power rankings
It is no surprise to Dolphins fans that the whole of humanity isn’t expecting much from the organization this upcoming season after new general manager Jon-Eric Sullivan tore the team’s roster down to the screws in an effort to rebuild the franchise in his image. Gone are quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, wide receivers Tyreek Hill and […]
Most concerning unit on the Dolphins roster – The Splash Zone 6/24/26
Training camp is just around the corner for the Miami Dolphins. They have retooled their roster and have turned it into one of the youngest ones in the league. But with all that roster turnover, there are some units who aren’t as strong as the other units. The wide receiver room is one of those […]
Miami Dolphins Discussion: Stefon Diggs Rumors Edition
Heading into the 2026 NFL season, the Miami Dolphins’ lack of wide receiver depth and the absence of a clear WR1 remain significant concerns. While several veterans remain available in free agency, a recent rumor suggests the Dolphins are considering signing Stefon Diggs on a short-term deal to bolster the position. Despite being past his […]
No Brendan Sorsby for Miami Dolphins or any other NFL team in 2026
To draft Brendan Sorsby, or to not draft Brendan Sorsby — that is the question. Well… that WAS the question — until today when the National Football League ended the former Indiana and Cincinnati quarterback’s attempt to enter the league’s supplemental draft by declaring early on Tuesday that no such draft would take place this […]
Dolphins training camp dates announced – The Splash Zone 6/23/26
Mark your calendars folks, rookies will report for Miami Dolphins training camp on July 21 while veterans will report on July 28. The Dolphins will also participate in joint practices with the Washington Commanders and New York Giants in August. Fans should be excited to see what this team could look like under Jeff Hafley. […]
