The Miami Dolphins have reached an agreement on a deal with Melvin Ingram, according to a source.

The defensive end adds depth to a pass rush that was one of the NFL's most aggressive last season.

Earlier this month, the Kansas City Chiefs had placed the unrestricted free agent tender on Ingram, meaning his signing with the Dolphins will count against the NFL's compensatory-pick formula.

If Ingram had gone unsigned by July 22, the Chiefs would have retained exclusive negotiating rights to him at 110% of his 2021 salary, which would have been $4.4 million.
