WATCH: Running back Sony Michel a surprising release of the Miami Dolphins

Jun. 26, 2025 – 00:42 – The Miami Dolphins signed former first-round pick Sony Michel this past spring in an attempt to help solidify their running back group under first-year head coach Mike McDaniel. At least initially, it seemed as if the 27-year-old Michel would slot in at RB1 in South Beach. This is a group that struggled under former head coach Brian Flores a season ago. Miami needed more production out of its backfield to help young quarterback Tua Tagovailoa succeed under center. Mere months after signing Michel, the Dolphins have ended this experience. Ahead of roster cut-down day, Miami has surprisingly opted to release Michel.
