New Dolphins Tight End Dwayne Allen: ‘Hopefully I Can Be An Agent Of Change’

DAVIE (CBSMiami/AP) — The Miami Dolphins’ first addition of the offseason is at a position that was extremely lacking in 2018.

Tight end Dwayne Allen has agreed to a $7 million, two-year contract with the Dolphins after helping the New England Patriots win the Super Bowl last month.

Allen made nine starts for the Patriots during the regular season, his seventh in the NFL, and was used primarily as a blocker.

He made only three receptions but has 139 career catches and 20 touchdowns.

“I don’t do the play-calling, so I don’t have to explain that at all,” he said when asked about having just 13 receptions in two years with the Patriots.
