Overview
- The Dolphins signed running back Coleman Bennett to a one-year deal, a signing first reported Wednesday and carried by multiple outlets.
- Miami opened a roster spot by waiving tight end Cole Turner with an injury designation, a move the team announced Thursday.
- If Turner goes unclaimed on waivers he will revert to the Dolphins’ season-ending injured reserve, which is standard procedure for waived/injured players.
- Bennett, an undrafted rookie who had a strong 2025 season at Kennesaw State and was cut by the Chicago Bears earlier in preseason, is expected to be evaluated heavily in the preseason finale but is unlikely to make the initial 53-man roster.
- The transactions reflect routine late-August roster churn as Miami balances a deep running-back room and a thin tight-end group made thinner by injuries to Ben Sims and Will Kacmarek.
