Miami Dolphins Sign Malik Willis, Release Tua Tagovailoa

Miami Dolphins make a significant move at quarterback, signing free agent Malik Willis to a three-year deal worth $67.5 million, with $45 million fully guaranteed. Willis, a third-round pick in 2022, spent the last two seasons with the Green Bay Packers, where he appeared in eleven games, starting three, and threw for 972 yards with six touchdowns and zero interceptions. He also ran for 161 yards and three scores on 42 carries. The Dolphins new head coach Jeff Hafley and general manager Jon-Eric Sullivan, who both worked with Green Bay, are familiar with Willis. The team plans to release former starter Tua Tagovailoa when the league year opens at 4 p.m. Eastern on Wednesday, signaling a fresh start under the new regime. As teams finalize deals ahead of the deadline, all eyes are on how Willis fits into Miamis plans for a quick turnaround.
