Miami Dolphins add defensive tackle and safety depth to the practice squad

The Miami Dolphins are changing the practice squad following Sunday’s win over the New England Patriots. The team announced on Tuesday that it signed safety Verone McKinley III and defensive tackle Byron Cowart to the practice squad.

McKinley returns to the Dolphins after playing 10 games for the franchise last season. He started two games and closed the year with 16 tackles, one interception, and one pass defended. The former undrafted free agent out of Oregon first joined Miami in May 2022.

Cowart started 14 games throughout his career, spending time with the Patriots and Indianapolis Colts.
