Dolphins Re-Sign Edge Seth Coleman-Lyles
The reported addition is aimed at shoring up short-term pass-rush depth after a preseason game exposed defensive weaknesses.
Overview
- Local reporting says Miami has brought back edge rusher Seth Coleman-Lyles to add depth to the pass rush.
- Coleman-Lyles had been waived earlier in the month after joining Miami on a futures contract following stints with the Seattle Seahawks and the Indianapolis Colts practice squad.
- His college résumé at Illinois includes 56 games with 42 starts, 183 tackles and 15.5 sacks, which helped keep him on NFL practice squads and futures rosters.
- The signing follows a preseason loss to the Washington Commanders that highlighted depth shortfalls and came as Miami practiced without defensive linemen Zach Sieler and Kenneth Grant.
- The move is an example of common preseason roster churn when teams make short-term additions to cover absences and evaluate players ahead of joint practices and early exhibition games.
