Dolphins coach Cam Cameron said the recent off-field behavior of defensive tackle Fred Evans would be taken seriously. The team waived Evans on Thursday in the wake of his second arrest in less than six months, prematurely ending what appeared to be a promising career with the Dolphins. Cameron offered no public comment or explanation for the release.

Daunte Culpepper's grievance hearing, scheduled for Friday, was postponed and will be held July 18, according to a source. In an e-mail, Culpepper wrote that the hearing was originally rescheduled for today. However, all parties weren't available. The NFL Players' Association said it would be Tuesday in Los Angeles, but Culpepper preferred South Florida.

Still working to gain his release from the Dolphins -- and hopefully in time to join another team before the beginning of training camps -- frustrated quarterback Daunte Culpepper will make his case for freedom at a Friday grievance hearing. Culpepper, who serves as his own agent, will be represented by NFL Players Association general counsel Richard Berthelsen, a spokesman for the union confirmed to ESPN.com. It is not yet known who will represent the Dolphins at the hearing, which will be presided over by arbitrator John Feerick.

Dolphins defensive tackle Fred Evans, arrested over the weekend for refusing to leave a taxi on South Beach and for fighting with officers, was released by the team Thursday. Evans played in one game as a rookie last season with the Dolphins.

Randy Mueller's contract as general manager of the Miami Dolphins has been extended and his salary will revised, according to a source. The extension is expected to carry Mueller through at least the 2009 season. Details of the salary adjustment were not available.

Dolphins defensive tackle Fred Evans was arrested early Saturday after he refused to leave a taxi on South Beach and then fought with officers, police said. Police twice used a Taser gun on Evans, according to the arrest report, in attempts to subdue the 6-foot-4, 305-pound player who appeared in one game as a rookie last season with the Dolphins. Officers said they asked Evans to leave the taxi and, after he refused, they attempted to put him in handcuffs. He allegedly resisted, leading to the scuffle. Evans was charged with multiple counts of battery on a law enforcement officer and resisting with violence, along with single counts of disorderly intoxication and trespassing. One officer was allegedly bitten on the wrist and a female officer sustained scrapes on her left knee, police said.

Jason Taylor's recent pledge to stop giving opinions to reporters might have come too late. The Dolphins' defensive end is quoted in a national magazine this week as saying he doesn't have confidence in quarterback Trent Green's ability to take a hit after missing eight games last season due to a serious concussion. In a profile on Taylor in this week's Sports Illustrated, the reigning NFL Defensive Player of the Year is quoted as saying about Green: "This is off the record--oh, what the hell, it's on the record: He'd better not get hit. One big hit, and he could be scrambled eggs."

The Dolphins and Daunte Culpepper will have an arbitration hearing June 29 in hopes of resolving the quarterback's status with the team. The NFL Players Association filed a grievance on Culpepper's behalf on Tuesday, claiming the Dolphins breached the quarterback's contract by not allowing him to participate in team drills during this past weekend's three-day minicamp, and thus not allowing him to compete for a job. Dolphins officials, who have kept quiet about Culpepper, declined comment on the hearing that will take place at New York.

The latest dramatic chapter of this story won't alter Daunte Culpepper's future in Miami. And it won't result in any more grievances against the Dolphins or knee surgeries. Instead, it will just require some automotive bodywork. "My heart is broke," Culpepper said in an e-mail Thursday. "A guy rear-ended my 1975 convertible Caprice classic. I had just got a new paint job." Culpepper was involved in a two-car accident during a rainy Wednesday night on the Sawgrass Expressway in Coral Springs, a Florida Highway Patrol spokesman said.

Miami Dolphins quarterback Daunte Culpepper injured his hand last night in a two-vehicle crash, a Florida Highway Patrol spokesman said on Thursday. The collision occurred about 10:30 p.m. Wednesday on the Sawgrass Expressway at Mile Marker 18, said FHP Lt. Mike Brown. Culpepper was westbound in a Chevrolet Caprice when he collided with an unidentified driver in a Chevy Avalanche. Both vehicles rolled off the roadway. When paramedics arrived, Culpepper complained of a hand injury, Brown said.
