Linebacker Elandon Roberts returns to Miami on one-year deal

Emmanual Ogbah and Duke Riley weren’t the only defenders Chris Grier and the front office wanted to keep in Miami.

ESPN’s Adam Schefter tweeted that linebacker Elandon Roberts is returning to the Dolphins on a one-year deal worth $3.25 million.

Roberts appeared in every game for the team last season and was credited with 15 starts. He closed the season with a career-best 83 total tackles, one sack and a pick-six, which came in Week 3 against Derek Carr and the Raiders.

As of now, Miami’s starting linebacker group would likely include Roberts, Riley and Jerome Baker.
