Xavien Howard Reports To Dolphins Without New Contract

Jul 27, 2021 9:40 AM

Xavien Howard reported to training camp with the Miami Dolphins on Tuesday despite not receiving a new contract this offseason.

Howard was absent from Miami's entire three-day minicamp in June, skipping the mandatory offseason work and racking up $93,000 in fines because of his displeasure related to his existing contract.

The cornerback's five-year, $75.25 million extension signed in 2019 is scheduled to pay him a guaranteed salary of slightly over $12 million in 2021.

Howard led the league in interceptions with 10 and earned his first All-Pro honor of his career in 2020.

Shaquem Griffin Signs One-Year Deal With Dolphins

Jul 23, 2021 2:22 PM

Shaquem Griffin has agreed to a one-year deal with the Miami Dolphins.

The signing doesn't guarantee Griffin will be on the Dolphins' final 2021 roster, but it does give him an opportunity to use his pass rush ability and special-teams acumen to compete for a depth role.

Griffin became the first player with one hand to be drafted in the NFL's modern era when the Seahawks chose him in the fifth round in 2018, reuniting him with his twin brother, Shaquill Griffin.
