The Dolphins 2023 Offense and Defense!

pThe Miami Dolphins have retained most of their starters from last season and Coach Fallen has identified that his team will run most of their plays out of two and three wide receiver sets. The Miami Dolphins welcome newly signed tight end Eric Ebron to the team. He will back up their starting tight end Mike Gesicki. Eric Ebron was very impressive in the starting role during the preseason and the Dolphins will ask a lot of him in the running and passing game. There are a few rookies that will be backing up the starters, but there aren’t any rookies that are expected to get much playing time on offense for the Miami Dolphins. p pThe Miami Dolphins signed outside linebacker KJ Wright and SS Kareem Jackson in the off-season to plug up holes on the depth chart at the time. The Dolphins addressed both of those positions in the draft when they selected Christan Harris and Juanyeh Thomas. The Dolphins drafted Bubba Bolden in the second round, but Juanyeh Thomas quickly beat him out in training camp. Juanyeh Thomas is expected to play behind Jerome Baker in the middle of the field and nickel and dime packages. Kareem Jackson would fill in at the safety position in those packages. The Miami Dolphins also signed Sheldon Richardson who is expected to start at their defensive tackle spot. Richardson is 31 years old but his strength, tackling, and hit power are still top notch. Richardson signed a one year deal in the off-season and the Dolphins are expected to have about $55M in cap space to work with this season, so they could extend Richardson a contract if he performs well this season.p
