Miami Dolphins general manager Chris Grier recently spoke with the local media for the first time since the draft. He was asked about one specific free agent that he drafted, Christian Wilkins.
Wilkins left the Dolphins to join the Las Vegas Raiders ahead of the 2024 season in free agency. He signed a mega-deal Miami couldn't match. His time in Las Vegas, however, wasn't great. He was injured five weeks into the season and was placed on injured reserve.
In what is now still an ongoing situation, the Raiders released Wilkins over the offseason. The situation surrounding his release is still being debated, and he has filed a claim against the Raiders, saying the release was so they could get rid of his remaining guarantees.
