Quinton Coples, ex-Jet, returns as Dolphins DE
All Quinton Coples wanted was to have his hand in the dirt.
Well, it seems he'll finally get the chance to do that - starting Sunday against his old team.
The former first-round pick of the Jets was claimed off waivers Tuesday by the Miami Dolphins, just a day after his release. And he's excited about returning to his roots as a 4-3 defensive end.
"It makes me happy a lot," Coples told Miami reporters this week, according to the Sun-Sentinel.
However, his former coach Todd Bowles didn't seem too worried about game-planning for him.
