Report: Dolphins release UDFA DL Ben Stille

It seems likely that Miami would want to bring him back.

The Miami Dolphins are continuing to make their roster moves to get down to 53 players before the deadline at 4 p.m. ET on Thursday.

According to the Miami Herald’s Barry Jackson, the Dolphins are releasing undrafted rookie defensive lineman Ben Stille. Stille joined Miami this offseason after his collegiate career at Nebraska.

He had a long way to go, but the rookie improved throughout the summer and was performing well in the preseason games, recording 12 tackles and a sack in the three contests.

Miami could be pretty deep at the interior defensive line spot, but Stille seems like a great candidate for the practice squad.

2022 Dolphins position preview: Breaking down DLs ahead of camp

There probably won’t be too many changes this year.

Entering the first training camp under head coach Mike McDaniel, the Miami Dolphins don’t have Brian Flores to rely on for their defense.

Flores, with his defensive background, was given a ton of credit for the team’s success defensively, but without him, they’ll turn to defensive coordinator Josh Boyer, who is returning despite the change at head coach. Most of the same players on defense are also returning for 2022 and are ready to compete for their roles.

We’ve talked about quarterbacks, running backs, wide receivers, tight ends and the offensive line, but now, we’re jumping over to the other side of the ball and breaking down the defensive lineman.
