SAF Minkah Fitzpatrick – $5M in dead cap

The Dolphins would probably still love to have Minkah Fitzpatrick in the picture, but Fitzpatrick had other plans. Ironically enough, all of Fitzpatrick’s complaints about Miami’s usage of him on the field are now things he’s expressing he wishes the Steelers would do more with him. Funny how that works.

So be it. The Dolphins will take responsibility for the rest of Fitzpatrick’s signing bonus this season and then he will be off the books for good.
