Mike Hull On Pup

[spiketex]

Dolphins placed LB Mike Hull on the reserve/PUP list.
It's horrific news for Hull, as he'll now be forced to miss all of 2019. Hull additionally missed the first eight weeks of the 2018 season with a sprained MCL, and has made just five starts for Miami since initially signing with the team in '15. Inked to a one-year contract in March, it's likely Hull's played his last snap with the Fins.

Availability is an asset.

Well that should be the end of the Mike Hull experience in Miami. He’s just been completely unable to stay healthy. Hopefully another team gives him a look next year.

It's a blow to special team but it gives another unknown a chance to make the 53.

hope he can find some good health in his future but is assume he is done here in Miami after this

Dude is an ironman.

No big deal. Never really did much as depth for us even. Bad LB

Sucks for him, as a guy though.

Just gives room for some other younger LB to make the team and start carving out a special teams role

Kudos to him for carving out some kind of NFL career when his ability says he shouldn’t have.

That roster spot should go to potential.

Best of luck Mike.

He was gone anyway. So many undrafted rookie free agent linebackers in camp.

I thought players on PUP had to be inactive until week 6 before the team had another month or so to decide if they get activated or put on IR?

 

[Daytona Fin]

I forgot he was still a Dolphin

From what I understand there’s the active pup designation, and the reserve pup designation. If you’re on the active one you can come back whenever. If you’re put on reserve pup list before final cuts are made your season is over. And I’m thinking since he’s a free agent next year anyway he might as well be as good as cut this year.

Agree. He stinks as a LB. Fill in the blanks with another stiff who will run down and hit someone on ST and you’re ok. Never was a fan. Reminded me of all the horrifically slow LBs we had during the Marino years.

Fair enough and classy take. Better than my “he stinks” lol

Opens the door for another ST guy. Maybe Hanks or Watson can prove they are worth a spot on the 53
