Overview

  • Miami made the signing official Tuesday, with multiple outlets reporting an incentive-laden, one-year agreement valued up to $6 million.
  • Coach Mike McDaniel said the addition was a fit evaluation rather than a response to any long-term setback for Bradley Chubb, Jaelan Phillips or Chop Robinson.
  • Defensive coordinator Anthony Weaver called Judon a strong complement to the group, citing his power, hand use and ability to win on the edge.
  • Judon, 33, is a four-time Pro Bowler with 72 career sacks who had a torn biceps in 2023 and posted 5.5 sacks in 17 games for Atlanta in 2024 after a trade from New England.
  • The Dolphins also signed cornerback Cameron Dantzler Sr. and waived wide receiver Tarik Black and punter Ryan Stonehouse, while Judon began practicing Wednesday to integrate into the scheme.
