Dolphins lock in Brooks, boosting core while eyeing Dodson’s exit

Miami signed LB Jordyn Brooks to a 3-year, $51.3 million extension with $35 million guaranteed, signaling him as a core piece under the new regime. That move could accelerate Tyrel Dodson’s trade candidacy, as GM Jon-Eric Sullivan rebuilds around rookies Jacob Rodriguez and Kyle Louis; Dodson’s starting status is now precarious despite strong 2025 production, with De’Von Achane and Aaron Brewer also solidified as part of the foundation.
