Tyrel Dodson Joins Dolphins After Unexpected Release from Seahawks

The Miami Dolphins claim linebacker Tyrel Dodson off waivers, following his surprising departure from the Seattle Seahawks.

Tyrel Dodson was waived by the Seattle Seahawks despite leading the team in tackles and playing a significant role in their defense.
Dodson's release remains unexplained, but he expressed his determination to prove his value with the Miami Dolphins.
The Dolphins released linebacker David Long Jr., who struggled in pass coverage, to make room for Dodson.
Dodson brings versatility to Miami, capable of playing both inside and outside linebacker, and is familiar with the defensive scheme.
Former teammate Jordan Poyer has been instrumental in helping Dodson transition to the Dolphins, providing both personal and professional support.
