K.J. Britt is moving to a different team in the AFC East.
Britt has agreed to sign a one-year deal with the Patriots, via Adam Schefter of ESPN.
Britt, 26, spent the 2025 season with the Dolphins. He was heavily involved in the club’s special teams, playing 77 percent of the unit’s snaps on the year. He also played 14 percent of defensive snaps.
A Buccaneers fifth-round pick in 2021, Britt has appeared in 76 career games with 16 starts. He’s recorded 161 total tackles with three passes defensed, four tackles for loss, and three QB hits.
Offensive tackle Austin Jackson has reworked the final year of his contract with the Dolphins.
According to multiple reports, Jackson agreed to reduce his salary in exchange for guaranteeing over $5.4 million of his compensation for the 2026 season. The Dolphins also added void years to the deal and the move will wind up saving them $8.5 million under the salary cap.
Jackson remains set to become a free agent in 2027.
Jackson has been in Miami since being selected in the first round in 2020, but he was limited to 14 games over the last two seasons because of injuries.
The Giants have agreed to terms with kicker Jason Sanders, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
The team still has Ben Sauls and Graham Gano at the position, but cutting Gano will save the Giants $4.5 million in salary cap space with a $1.25 million dead cap hit.
Sanders, 30, missed all of the 2025 season with a hip injury, and the Dolphins released him last week.
The Dolphins made him a seventh-round pick in 2018, and in seven seasons in Miami, he made 84.6 percent of his field goals and 96.6 percent of his extra points. Sanders is 33-of-48 from beyond 50 yards with a career-long of 57 yards.
He made first-team All-Pro in 2020.
The Dolphins have found a new kicker.
Zane Gonzalez has agreed to a one-year deal with Miami, according to agent Mike McCartney.
Gonzalez, 30, spent the latter half of last season kicking for the Falcons. He connected on 19-of-22 field goals and 17-of-18 extra points in nine games.
Gonzalez started his pro career as a Browns seventh-round pick in 2017. He then kicked for the Cardinals for a couple of years before missing the 2022 season with a quad injury and the 2023 season with another injury.
After 2021, he again appeared in a regular season game with Washington in 2024.
The Dolphins released former kicker Jason Sanders earlier this month after he missed the 2025 season due to injury.
A former Dolphins offensive lineman will be joining his former head coach in L.A.
Via Adam Schefter of ESPN, Cole Strange has agreed to terms with the Chargers. It’s reportedly a two-year, $13 million deal.
A first-round pick of the Patriots in 2022, Strange was released not long before the start of his third season. He landed on Cleveland’s practice squad before being signed to Miami’s active roster in September.
Last year, Strange appeared in 14 games (all starts) in Miami.
Strange started all 17 games as a rookie in 2022. In late 2023, he suffered a torn patellar tendon. The next year, he wasn’t ready to play until late in the season.
