Overview

• Miami sent a conditional 2026 sixth-round pick to the New York Giants in exchange for Waller and a conditional 2027 seventh-round selection.
• Waller, who retired in June 2024 after a November health scare, will come out of retirement at age 32 to suit up in Miami.
• Agent Drew Rosenhaus confirmed the veteran tight end’s agreement on a one-year deal worth up to $5 million with performance incentives.
• Before his brief hiatus, Waller tallied back-to-back 1,000-yard seasons and earned a Pro Bowl nod in 2020 but battled injuries over the past three years.
• The move represents a cost-effective gamble by Miami to bolster its passing attack alongside Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle.
