The Miami Dolphins have lost one of their best players over the opening week of the NFL’s 2024 free agency period.
Defensive tackle Christian Wilkins is no longer an AFC East rival of the Buffalo Bills. He signed a four-year, $110 million deal with the Las Vegas Raiders.
Wilkins played in 10 games against the Bills during his time in Miami. He had a sack and two forced fumbles in that time. Wilkins recorded a career-high nine sacks last season.
What he’s most known for is a spat he had with Buffalo quarterback Josh Allen.
Back in 2022, Allen ripped off Wilkins’ helmet on a play… but there was also commentary about Wilkins potentially grabbing the QB in the groin area during a pileup.
But in the end, the two evidently buried the hatchet. Allen and Wilkins went on to exchange compliments ahead of Buffalo and Miami’s first meeting in 2023.
Even so, Allen and the Bills will likely enjoy not seeing Wilkins twice a year moving forward.
