Miami Dolphins 2020 training camp preview: Offensive line

Will Michael Deiter claim a starting role amid new competition?

Deiter was a fixture on the line last season but his struggles were well documented — in large part due to the poor play he was sandwiched in-between at left tackle and at center. How well can Deiter bounce back in year two? After all, he was a 3rd-round selection in the 2019 NFL Draft by this regime for a reason. Deiter has experience at tackle, guard and center — his best chance to see the field after major reinforcements to the line this season may come at center. Ted Karras is here from New England on a one-year deal, so Miami is not committed to him in the long-term just yet.

Given the presence of Ereck Flowers, Jesse Davis/Robert Hunt and Solomon Kindley, beating out Karras is Deiter’s best bet.
