Dolphins not expected to tender former third-round pick

The Dolphins hoped receiver Leonte Carroo would be the big-play playmaker he showed in catching 29 touchdowns in four seasons at Rutgers.

But despite occasional flashes, it never quite came together for Carroo, and the Dolphins are not intending to tender him a contract by Wednesday’s 4 p.m. deadline for restricted free agents, according to a league source.

Carroo had 12 catches for 192 yards and one touchdown in 37 career games over three seasons.

He caught two passes for 94 yards last season, including a 74-yard touchdown from Ryan Tannehill in the loss to the Indianapolis Colts.
