LB Kiko Alonso — $2.2M in dead cap
Alonso was traded ahead of the 2019 season for LB Vince Biegel in a straight up swap with the Saints after reportedly falling out of favor with the new coaching staff for freelancing too much on plays. Miami ate some of his remaining cap commitments last season and they will absorb the rest of it this season.
This isn’t a hard pill to swallow, unlike the previous two talents. Unlike Jones, Alonso isn’t an obscene cap hit for 2020 and, unlike Fitzpatrick, the Dolphins are probably better off talent-wise with Alonso playing elsewhere.
