TAMPA, Fla. -- Second-year defensive back Minkah Fitzpatrick opened up Wednesday afternoon about being uncomfortable with how he's being used in the Miami Dolphins defense. This all came after Fitzpatrick's mom tweeted about him being miscast as a strong safety in response to a South Florida Sun-Sentinel reporter saying he wasn't playing well.
"Maybe it's because he is not a SS (strong safety) and is being used to suit other people skill set not his own," Melissa Fitzpatrick said via Twitter.
Fitzpatrick was informed about his mom's tweet shortly after finishing up joint practices with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
