The NFL’s 2022 league year begins on Wednesday, with teams able to begin constructing their roster for the next regular season. Players with expiring 2021 contracts will become free agents at 4 p.m. Eastern time on Wednesday, able to sign contracts with new teams starting then. Before we reach Wednesday, however, we have the league’s “legal tampering” period, a three-day window during which teams can talk to agents about players scheduled to hit free agency, even though they are still under contract with their current club.
As we work our way through an important part of the NFL calendar, we will keep you up to date on all the wheeling and dealing for the Miami Dolphins - and the other major news around the league.
