In other words, Armstead was set to make $28.6 million, and now has gifted roughly half of that to the Dolphins in cap space by cutting his salary down. Armstead, who turns 34 in July, has been a warrior in playing through frequent injuries with the Dolphins the past three years. Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel told reporters earlier today at the NFL Combine that the team is “operating as though we’re moving on” from Armstead. Patrick Paul will be in line to start at left tackle if Armstead hangs it up.
