Dolphins Restructure Bradley Chubb's Contract to Retain Star Pass Rusher

Chubb agrees to a reduced base salary with performance incentives after missing 2024 due to a severe knee injury.

  • The Miami Dolphins and Bradley Chubb have agreed to a restructured contract, lowering his base salary while including playtime and sack incentives to maintain his full earning potential of $21 million for 2025.
  • Chubb's revised deal reduces his $28.6 million cap hit, creating financial flexibility for the team ahead of free agency.
  • The 29-year-old edge rusher missed the entire 2024 season recovering from a torn ACL, meniscus, and patellar tendon sustained in late 2023 but is expected to fully participate in the Dolphins' offseason program.
  • Chubb was acquired from the Denver Broncos in 2022 and signed to a five-year, $110 million extension; he has earned two Pro Bowl selections in his career.
  • If healthy, Chubb will join Jaelan Phillips and 2024 first-round pick Chop Robinson to form a strong pass-rushing trio for the Dolphins.
