Dolphins make series of roster moves Monday; Add CB Picasso Nelson Jr

The Miami Dolphins announced a series of roster moves on Monday, including the addition of cornerback Picasson Nelson, Jr. Nelson was claimed off waivers from the Indianapolis Colts. He spent part of the 2019 season on the Colts’ practice squad after originally signing as an undrafted free agent with the Jacksonville Jaguars. He played at Southern Mississippi, recording 202 tackles, 15 passes defensed, five interceptions, and a forced fumble.

Also on Monday, the Dolphins activated linebacker Jerome Baker from the Reserve/COVID-19 list. The team had placed their starting middle linebacker on the list Friday, indicating either he had tested positive for the coronavirus or had been in close contact with someone who had tested positive.
