The Miami Herald reports that the Dolphins are interested in re-signing RB Duke Johnson and LBs Brennan Scarlett and Duke Riley.

“The Dolphins likely would offer each a modest deal,” the Herald said. Johnson came on late for the Dolphins and clearly outplayed Myles Gaskin. This backfield likely still has some real flux in it, with Raheem Mostert a rumored target who Mike McDaniel is familiar with, but Johnson could be a real part of the rotation in 2022.

Texans assigned an original-round tender to restricted free agent OLB Brennan Scarlett.

The tender will pay $2.025 million. Because Scarlett entered the league as an undrafted free agent, the Texans will not receive any compensation if he is signed away, but they will get the opportunity to match any offer sheet. Scarlett has mostly helped out on special teams so far in his career.

Texans second-year OLB Brennan Scarlett is the leading candidate to start opposite Whitney Mercilus.

Scarlett was healthy for only seven games as an undrafted rookie, but showed enough that Houston made him their IR return player. He’ll have the first chance at replacing John Simon. The Texans also got second round LB Zach Cunningham some outside reps at OTAs.
