Miami Dolphins AFC East

When Willis signed his three-year, $67.5 million deal in March, Miami still had an established No. 1 receiver in Jaylen Waddle, who has since been traded to Denver. As a result, the Dolphins now enter the summer with a far less proven receiving corps headlined by Malik Washington, Jalen Tolbert, Tutu Atwell and TE Greg Dulcich, while rookies Caleb Douglas (undisclosed), Chris Bell (ACL) and Kevin Coleman continue to compete for roles. Another factor in Willis' uneven start to OTAs and minicamp has been the absence of De'Von Achane (shoulder), arguably Miami's most dynamic pass catcher, who has been limited to individual drills while recovering from an offseason procedure. OC Bobby Slowik suggested Thursday developing chemistry with the team's receivers will "probably be an ongoing process all the way up to the regular-season start." Much of Willis' fantasy appeal stems from his dual-threat ability, but it would still be encouraging to see the passing game gain traction once training camp begins in July.

Reagor will now be joining his fifth different team since Philadelphia selected him in the first round of the 2020 NFL Draft. The Dolphins' competition for snaps at wide receiver appears wide open behind 2024 sixth-rounder Malik Washington, so Reagor could have a fighting chance at a spot on the 53-man roster.

Washington played exactly one game in each of the last two seasons with the Falcons, and he stuck to special teams in both instances. The Southeastern Louisiana product is likely vying for the No. 4 running back role behind De'Von Achane, Jaylen Wright and Ollie Gordon.

Gronowski was the South Dakota State starting quarterback for four years before transferring to Iowa in 2025. Through 13 games as a Hawkeye, Gronowski completed 166 of 262 pass attempts (63.0 percent) for 1,741 yards and 10 touchdowns along with seven interceptions. The 24-year-old also added 130 carries for 545 yards and 16 rushing touchdowns during his final season. Gronowski will compete with Quinn Ewers (knee) and Cam Miller throughout training camp for the No. 2 role behind Malik Willis.

Hankerson played two years at Colorado before transferring to Oregon State for his final two collegiate seasons. The running back produced 1,086 yards and nine touchdowns over 247 rush attempts in 2025. He also added 123 receiving yards on 22 receptions. Hankerson has a tough task ahead, likely needing to beat out Ollie Gordon in training camp to garner the No. 3 running back spot and remain on the Dolphins' active roster.

McCulley played at Indiana for four years and started 15 games before transferring to Michigan in 2025. The wide receiver produced 588 yards and three touchdowns on 39 catches over 13 starts for the Wolverines. The Dolphins drafted three wide receivers this year and have acquired a wealth of depth to fill the room, so surviving training camp will be quite the challenge for McCulley.

Wease played substantial snaps at wide receiver for the Dolphins' last three contests of the 2025 season. He caught six of his 10 targets for 130 yards and one touchdown over the three-game span. The team drafted Caleb Douglas and Chris Bell (ACL) in the third round of the 2026 draft, as well as Kevin Coleman in the fifth round. With all three new receivers set to compete throughout the preseason, Wease may have to show out to remain on the roster.

Coleman played for four different schools during his four-year college career, which ended in 2025 with Missouri, when he posted 66 catches for 732 yards and one touchdown across 13 games. He served primarily as a slot wide receiver and had the explosiveness to beat the first man, and his experience as a punt returner could earn him playing time in his rookie season in the NFL. Coleman is the third wide receiver selected by the Dolphins in this year's draft, joining Texas Tech's Caleb Douglas and Louisville's Chris Bell.

Llewellyn didn't start at Iowa until his fifth season, but he made up for lost time by stacking up 26 tackles, 9.5 tackles for loss, 6.5 sacks and six pass breakups through 13 games. His limited experience is concerning for a player who will be 24 years old to start the season, and he still has work to do as a run defender. Llewellyn projects as a depth player on Miami's edge.

Johnson (6-feet, 193 pounds) was a standout three-year starter on some good San Diego State pass defenses, demonstrating an NFL-caliber skill set in the process. Then Johnson verified at the combine that he has the wheels necessary for his game to translate to the NFL, logging a 4.44-second 40 along with a 126-inch broad jump. New Miami coach Jeff Hafley ran coverages with ambitious zone designs in Green Bay, and Johnson's schematic versatility between man and zone was likely a selling point.

The punter and kickoff specialist has been serving in both roles consistently for the past 11 seasons with the 49ers, Buccaneers and Falcons. Pinion led the NFL with 36 punts inside the 20 in 2025. He should be in line to play a similar role for Miami.

Heck, who previously spent time with the Texans and Buccaneers, projects to operate as a depth swing tackle for the Dolphins behind Patrick Paul and Austin Jackson (back). Heck's presence will help keep thing stable up front for new quarterback Malik Willis.
