Dolphins to give T.J. McDonald full practice reps prior to suspension

The Miami Dolphins did a lot of work this offseason to address their defense, adding players all across the depth chart to better a unit that finished 29th in total defense last year. They drafted five players, of their seven selections, on the defensive side of the ball, along with the addition of players like defensive end William Hayes (trade from the Los Angeles Rams), linebacker Lawrence Timmons (free agent signing), and safety Nate Allen (free agent signing). Miami also added former Los Angeles Rams safety T.J. McDonald, despite an eight-game suspension the 26-year-old, four-year veteran will be serving to start the 2017 regular season.
