Dolphins claim former Eagles, Giants TE off waivers

The Dolphins are back to four tight ends on their active roster after claiming one off waivers Wednesday.

The Miami Dolphins claimed former Philadelphia Eagles tight end Jack Stoll off waivers, the team announced Wednesday. Linebacker David Long Jr. was waived by the Dolphins to make room on the active roster.

Stoll, 26, signed with the Eagles as an undrafted free agent in 2021 and spent the first three seasons of his career with the team. When he became a free agent in 2024, he signed with the New York Giants, but re-joined Philadelphia after he was released at the end of training camp.

In his four seasons with the Eagles, Stoll caught 22 passes for 193 yards.

On Tuesday, the Dolphins claimed linebacker Tyrel Dodson off waivers and placed tight end Tanner Conner on injured reserve. Miami brought its roster back to equilibrium by adding a tight end and cutting a linebacker Wednesday.

The Dolphins have three other tight ends on the active roster: Jonnu Smith, Durham Smythe, and Julian Hill. They also re-added rookie Hayden Rucci to the practice squad.
