Steve Fifita

[GCD960]

Anyone know what the deal is with him? He is not listed on the miamidolphins.com website depth chart and I do not remember anything being said about him.

He's on the only depth chart that matters.

Steve Fifita wasn't waived. He is not listed on the 'Phins website because he shared a number with Emanuel Akah. Whenever they change a number of a player on that site, his name is temporarily removed.

Hmmm. Released a month ago. I bought that line. Thanks guys.

Fifta is still on the team. He usually comes in with the third team. He is only 6'0" tall but weighs in the 320 range. He attributes are he is very stronge and has a good twitch. Just remember Mike Patterson who was pick by the Eagles 2005 in the first round is only 5'11" tall so anything's possible.

I think we're trying him at guard.

trust me guys im certain he was released, i saw it up on miamidolphins.com about a month ago....it was way before training camp ever had started, he was released when alonzo ephriam was released

No, that was a typo on the writer's part, since Emanuel Akah (who is a Guard) and Fifita shared the same number.

So does anyone definitively know his status?

He's still signed.

Then why is Fifita still on the roster on miamidolphins.com and the recently released Will Poole is already removed?
As for Ephraim, look through our team transactions on PFW, http://www.profootballweekly.com/PFW/NFL/AFC/AFC+East/Miami/Transactions/2006/transmar.htm and you'll see we never tendered him as a ERFA way back on March 10, so he's basically been on the street since then. So to say you saw the two of them being mentioned as released at the same time lends no credence to your assertion that it happened.

You could look through the news archives on miamidolphins.com and find the press release where you claim those two releases were mentioned, and then give the link.
