Dolphins Place Eichenberg, Waller and Melifonwu on PUP and NFI Lists, Add Veteran Guard
NFL roster rules let Miami sideline three offseason additions without disclosing their status, reshuffling the depth chart before practice.
Overview
- Offensive guard Liam Eichenberg and tight end Darren Waller were placed on the physically unable to perform list, and safety Ifeatu Melifonwu landed on the non-football injury list to start training camp.
- Teams need not reveal injury specifics before the regular season, so the severity and timeline for returns remain unclear.
- The Dolphins signed veteran guard Daniel Brunskill, who has 92 NFL appearances and spent three seasons under coach Mike McDaniel in San Francisco.
- As part of the roster shake-up, Miami waived undrafted rookie quarterback Brett Gabbert to free up a spot on its 90-man camp roster.
- Darren Waller is coming out of retirement after a trade from the New York Giants, leaving his initial participation timing in Dolphins practices in question.
