Overview

  • Miami is hosting veteran outside linebacker Matthew Judon on an official visit and multiple national reports indicate both sides are motivated to finalize a contract.
  • Judon, a four-time Pro Bowler, recorded a career-high 15½ sacks in 2022 and added 5½ sacks in 2024 after missing most of 2023 with a torn biceps.
  • The Dolphins’ projected starters—Chop Robinson, Jaelan Phillips and Bradley Chubb—have all faced significant injuries that limited their availability last season.
  • Special-teams contributors and undrafted prospects such as Quinton Bell, Cameron Goode, Mohamed Kamara, Grayson Murphy and Derrick McLendon are making their cases for roster spots.
  • No contract has been announced and the Dolphins have yet to formally confirm any agreement with Judon.
