Jarvis Landry Staying in Miami (For Now)

Dolphins wide receiver Jarvis Landry received the first franchise tag of the year Tuesday night. The 25-year-old is the only receiver to catch 400 passes in his first four seasons. However, at 6'0, he does most of his damage on shorter routes; he's yet to compile 10 touchdowns in a season and fell 13 yards short of 1,000 in 2017 despite leading the league with 112 catches. That contrast makes Landry's value hard to pinpoint, and is a big reason why he and Miami have failed to agree on a long-term contract to this point.

Those negotiations will still continue.
