Cameron Wake

"As Cam’s agent, I can tell you this is simply not true," Paul Sheehy posted on Twitter. "Cameron is playing this season and we are actively engaged in conversations with teams." WEEI's Courtney Fallon posted Saturday evening that Wake was expected to hang it up. Although he is now 38 and ended last season on injured reserve, Wake remained a valuable situational pass rusher before getting hurt. Perhaps the current coronavirus-related slowdown will hurt Wake's market — teams are going to be leery of signing him without an in-house physical — but if he wants to play in 2020, he should be able to.

Wake spent last year in a reserve role with the Titans before landing on IR. Despite not starting his career until age-27, Wake will finish with 100.5 sacks and 22 forced fumbles over 11 seasons if he retires. The five-time Pro Bowler and four-time All Pro probably isn't a Hall-of-Famer but should find a place on the Dolphins' Ring of Honor.

The move creates $5.6 million in cap space while leaving behind a modest $2.7 million in dead money. Now 38, Wake has said he wants to continue his playing career after ending last season on injured reserve. Wake remained effective on a per-snap basis in 2019. He will undoubtedly get a situational pass rusher/leadership flier in free agency.

Wake was injured while playing a season-high 37 snaps in Sunday's game against the Jaguars, and now his season is over. The 37-year-old finishes 2019 with just four tackles (three solo) and 2.5 sacks over nine games.
