It's Only Happened ONCE!
The Dolphins will be looking at next season earlier than they expected. While coach Adam Gase and his players might tout the importance of playing for pride in Sunday’s finale against the Bills, there are no stakes for Miami—not for this season, anyway.
As the team moves into an offseason that will require it to do significant remodeling, here are five players who seem unlikely to be back next year:
1. QB Jay Cutler
Moving on makes sense for both sides here. Cutler is too old and expensive to bring back, even as a backup to Ryan Tannehill, and he hasn’t been good this season. For $10 million, Miami got a guy who has the eighth-worst passer rating in the NFL. For Cutler’s part, he took a physical beating this year. He has over $120 million in career earnings and should be able to step straight into a broadcasting job, leaving little reason for him to come back at 35.
2. QB Matt Moore
It’s hard to imagine Moore not being here. Only John Denney, Cameron Wake and Reshad Jones have been with the Dolphins longer, and he’s stayed on through two coaching changes. But Moore and Gase don’t always seem to be in sync, and there’s no way it sat well with Moore when Gase brought in Cutler the moment Tannehill got hurt. The Dolphins also need to get younger at this position. Imagine how much more interesting Sunday’s game would be if they had an up-and-coming prospect they could debut against the Bills. Moore is an unrestricted free agent.
