The Miami Dolphins, under new general manager Jon-Eric Sullivan and head coach Jeff Hafley, are prioritizing youth and cost-effectiveness in their roster rebuild. They notably chose not to re-sign their top cornerback, Rasul Douglas, who signed a one-year deal with the Washington Commanders worth up to $3.8 million. Douglas had a solid 2025 season with 62 tackles and two interceptions. To fill the gap, the Dolphins selected cornerback Chris Johnson from San Diego State with their second first-round pick in the 2026 NFL Draft.
