Dolphins agreed to terms with CB Elijah Campbell on a one-year, $1.9 million contract.
The Dolphins will keep Campbell in 2025 after he recorded 11 tackles over 17 games last season, operating mostly as a special teams player. Campbell, 29, who has played for Miami since 2021, should remain in that role in 2025.
Dolphins signed CB Elijah Campbell to a one-year contract.
Campbell will stay with Miami for a fourth consecutive season following a 2023 campaign that saw him register a career-high 15 tackles. Campbell will likely remain a special teams player and a rotational defensive player in 2024.
Dolphins agreed to terms with restricted free agent CB Elijah Campbell on a one-year contract.
Financial terms are not yet available, but it’s a safe bet Campbell was retained for less than the “low” RFA tender amount of $3.116 million. Otherwise he likely would have been non-tendered. A 28-year-old former undrafted free agent, Campbell appeared in 31 games over the past two seasons but made just two starts. He’s a depth/special teams piece who can contribute on defense in a pinch.
Dolphins HC Mike McDaniel said S Elijah Campbell “sustained a substantial knee injury that will take him into the season.”
The team ruled out an ACL tear following Saturday’s preseason finale but further testing is required to establish a baseline for his return to action. It is likely Campbell will find himself on injured reserve in short order, leaving the Dolphins with yet another blow to their retooled secondary.
