Malik Willis Emerges as Sought-After QB Ahead of March Free Agency Window

Teams now weigh a small-sample surge against cost pressures.

Overview

  • After two seasons as Jordan Love’s backup, Willis posted standout efficiency for Green Bay: 70-of-89 passing for 972 yards with six touchdowns and no interceptions, plus 261 rushing yards and three scores.
  • Multiple teams are evaluating him for a larger role, with Miami highlighted because coach Jeff Hafley and GM Jon‑Eric Sullivan previously worked with Willis in Green Bay.
  • The Dolphins’ interest could be complicated by Tua Tagovailoa–related cap consequences, according to current reporting.
  • Other potential suitors mentioned include the Falcons, Steelers, Cardinals, Vikings, Ravens, Jets and Browns.
  • Contract projections cluster around $20–$30 million per year with upside if bidding heats up, while the contact window opens March 9 at noon ET and signings may begin March 11 at 4 p.m. ET.
