The Miami Dolphins have done a lot this offseason to improve their roster from the year prior and adding that talent has caused the team to be significantly older.
According to Spotrac, the Dolphins have the eighth-oldest roster in the NFL. Miami’s roster has an average age of 26.57.
For those that are interested, here are the eight oldest rosters in the league:
- 8. Miami Dolphins (26.57)
- 7. Denver Broncos (26.6)
- 6. Houston Texans (26.83)
- 5. Buffalo Bills (26.92)
- 4. Arizona Cardinals (27.06)
- t-2. New Orleans Cardinals (27.25)
- t-2. New England Patriots (27.25)
- 1. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (27.32)
Miami brought in experienced veterans before the start of the regular season like Thomas Morstead (36), Melvin Ingram (33), Justin Bethel (32), Terron Armstead (31), Teddy Bridgewater (30) and Raheem Mostert (30), but the influx in young talent over the last few years wasn’t enough to balance the ages.
