T.J. McDonald

McDonald was recently released by the Dolphins before the season due to a crowded safety room, and as evidenced by this news, has been receiving interest elsewhere. It's unclear if anything materialized from the tryout, but the 28-year-old played 14 games last season, compiling 86 tackles (63 solo) and three interceptions with the Dolphins.

Miami had a crowded safety room and is evidently looking to go younger at the position by releasing McDonald, who started all 14 games he played for the team last season. The 28-year-old safety should latch on with another team soon enough.

McDonald's stint on the PUP list was short, and he'll now resume practicing with teammates. The 28-year-old could reportedly see time at linebacker in 2019 as a result of Miami's overcrowded safety room, which includes Bobby McCain, Minkah Fitzpatrick and Reshad Jones. McDonald's reps in training camp will be worth monitoring.

There were no reports that McDonald was dealing with an injury heading into training camp, so his stint on the PUP list could be short. He did, however, deal with an ankle injury at the end of the 2018 season, so that could be to blame for his absence. In any event, Minkah Fitzpatrick would stand to draw the starting free safety reps with McDonald sidelined.
