Dolphins Lose Three Secondary Starters, Add Veteran Corners

Miami has turned to veteran cornerbacks Jack Jones, Mike Hilton and Cornell Armstrong to rebuild its undermanned secondary.

Overview

  • Artie Burns and Kader Kohou have been ruled out for the season after a torn ACL and knee injury, respectively, while Ashtyn Davis is recovering from a lower-leg injury not expected to sideline him long term.
  • Since camp opened, Miami has signed veteran cornerbacks Jack Jones, Mike Hilton and Cornell Armstrong to bolster its depleted backfield.
  • All of Miami’s 2024 starting secondary, from Jalen Ramsey to Jevon Holland, is now gone through trades, free agency and injuries.
  • Coach Mike McDaniel said the team is still evaluating Davis’s timeline but must rely on new additions to fill gaps left by Burns and Kohou.
  • The Dolphins are exploring further trade options, including a potential deal for Chiefs cornerback Joshua Williams, to stabilize the secondary.
