Tanking or not, Dolphins risk losing players' trust with current plan

DAVIE, Fla. -- The news came in waves, delivering heavy blows to the Miami Dolphins locker room with each transaction. Franchise left tackle Laremy Tunsil, gone. Top receiver Kenny Stills, out of here. Leading tackler Kiko Alonso, goodbye. Those are just the moves made over cut-down weekend.

"It hurts," Pro Bowl cornerback Xavien Howard said. "We got rid of a lot of really good players."

Offensive lineman Jesse Davis added: "When Laremy was traded, we were like, 'Woah.' That got to all of us. We were a little sad about it.
