Dolphins waste no time making tough cut after playoff elimination

The Miami Dolphins made headlines Wednesday morning with the announcement that they would be benching quarterback Tua Tagovailoa in favor of rookie Quinn Ewers. Yet, it wasn't the only bit of news out of South Florida, as the Dolphins also elected to part ways with veteran linebacker Matthew Judon.

Judon's release will now allow the 10-year veteran to potentially sign on with a playoff contender in hopes of a Super Bowl run.
