The Miami Dolphins needed leadership heading into the 2025 season, and several players stepped up. None more evident than Jordyn Brooks. Dolphins fans already knew Brooks was good, but they had no idea he could be a game-changer.
Miami had a lot of problems on both sides of the ball, and ultimately, that led to too many consecutive losses they couldn't overcome. Looking back on the 2025 season, it was clear who stepped up and who didn't.
If the Dolphins are going to find success in 2026, it might be a good idea to build around the players who set the tone for every game and hold others accountable.
