Dolphins signed CB Cre'von LeBlanc, formerly of the Eagles, to a one-year contract.
LeBlanc served as Philadelphia's primary slot corner last year until quad and ankle injuries limited him down the stretch (and out of the lineup altogether from Week 11 on). With light special teams experience -- 31 total snaps with that unit the past two seasons -- LeBlanc, 26, will likely compete for a role as Miami's starting nickel or be forced to ride the bench while waiting out an injury ahead of him.
Eagles slot CB Cre'Von LeBlanc suffered a high-ankle sprain in Philadelphia's Week 11 loss to Cleveland.
NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reports LeBlanc is "likely" headed to injured reserve. Clearly hampered since returning from a quad injury in Week 10, LeBlanc has merely played 29 snaps the past two weeks. He'll be replaced by Nickell Robey-Coleman and K'Von Wallace for the rest of the season.
Eagles slot CB Cre'Von LeBlanc (quad) was ruled out for Week 8 against the Cowboys.
76% of LeBlanc's defensive snaps have been in the slot this season, setting up CeeDee Lamb for a slightly better matchup on Sunday Night Football. Lamb, of course, will be catching passes from third-string QB Ben "Gucci" DiNucci. The Eagles can afford to have LeBlanc miss time this week because Dallas is in shambles.
LeBlanc (foot) was activated off IR on Saturday, Zack Rosenblatt of NJ.com reports.
LeBlanc will join the Eagles' cornerback corps Sunday in Miami and beyond. He recorded 27 combined tackles while splitting time between the Eagles and Lions last season.
