Charles Clay was the answer to the Dolphins’ tight end problems during his time in Miami. His versatility, athleticism and ability to earn yards after the catch made him a vital part of Miami’s offense. Unfortunately, the Dolphins lost Clay to free agency, and haven’t quite recovered since.
Dion Sims as a decent replacement, but he could never stay healthy nor turn into a serious offensive threat.
Thus, Miami turned to washed up Julius Thomas in hopes of rejuvenating his career.
No dice. In fact, Thomas looked out of shape and incompetent to make the easy catch — or even effort — at times.
