Misi missed most of last season with a serious neck injury so his return is a bit surprising. As the season came to an end Misi was reportedly on his way out of Miami and possibly the NFL entirely due to the injury. He must have been cleared to return to football.
The move has not been officially announced by the Dolphins so the contract terms are unknown. It has been said that he has taken a pay cut. Which is good because he was slated to make $4.7 million this year. Releasing Misi would have saved the Dolphins $4.
