After another year of Chris Grier hoarding draft picks, we knew it would take some time before the Miami Dolphins' entire 2021 draft class was under contract. Last month, Jaylen Waddle agreed to terms with the team. And now, as we learned a short time ago, fellow first-round pick and pass-rush extraordinaire, Jaelan Phillips has agreed to terms with the team.
Here is the official press release from the team.
MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. – The Miami Dolphins today announced that they have signed linebacker Jaelan Phillips. He was selected in the first round (18th overall) by Miami in the 2021 NFL Draft.
