Jayrone Elliott, the best passer from the defunct Alliance of American Football, visited Dolphins headquarters on Monday and Miami is expected to sign him, according to a league source.
Elliott, 6-3 and 255 pounds, had a league-leading 7.5 sacks and numerous pressures in eight games for the San Antonio Commanders, as well as four forced fumbles.
He’s best suited as a 3-4 outside linebacker but can also play defensive end.
