Free agent running back Zamir White worked out for the Dolphins, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN reports.
White, 26, is expected to work out for other teams, Fowler adds.
White appeared in six games for the Raiders last season and had 12 rushes for 32 yards and four receptions for 24 yards.
The Raiders made White a fourth-round pick in 2022.
In four seasons, he has 198 attempts for 736 yards and two touchdowns in 45 games with nine starts. He has also caught 25 passes for 152 yards.
Free agent edge rusher Von Miller has expressed a desire to play in 2026. The market, though, has been “quiet” so far, Miller said Wednesday.
Miller’s wish is for a reunion with the Broncos, who traded him to the Rams during the 2021 season. Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post reports that the Broncos haven’t shown interest in signing Miller, but that hasn’t stopped Miller from working General Manager George Paton and head coach Sean Payton.
“I lobby. I do lobby,” Miller said, via Parker. “I lobby publicly. I lobby privately. I do lobby. I think there’s no question the type of environment I bring to a locker room and to a team. I don’t like to pat myself on the back, but at 37 years old I can still roll out of bed and rush the quarterback. I’m still a great guy in the locker room. I bring great energy, and I’m going to make sure everybody is ready to go.”
Miller made nine sacks with the Commanders last season, his most since 2021 when he made 9.5.
“Last year I played 37 percent of the defensive snaps,” Miller said. “Thirty [percent] with the Denver Broncos, and I feel like I can do the same exact thing I did with the Washington Commanders.”
Miller won a Super Bowl with the Broncos, earning MVP honors in the process, and another with the Rams. He would like nothing better than to bring another Lombardi Trophy back to Denver.
He said he would help Nik Bonitto and Jonathon Cooper, and Bonitto recently said it would be “amazing” to be able to learn from Miller.
“Obviously, I wouldn’t start. Obviously, I wouldn’t play special teams,” Miller said. “But I will say, the type of room that we would have, the outside linebackers with me, Nik Bonitto, we’d be a force. Whatever coach we have going on, I would just contribute to that. The defense that we’d have. I’d love to bring back those Super Bowl 50 vibes.
“I would love to assist and be a vice president to Bo Nix and Courtland Sutton. I’ve been the guy and also I’ve been the vice president as well. I’d love to contribute to us getting back to the glory land, holding up that trophy and confetti falling again. For me, my whole entire life, I’ve helped guys be the best version of themselves and I’d love to do that back here with the Denver Broncos back home.”
A veteran receiver is hanging up his cleats.
The Cowboys placed Parris Campbell on the reserve/retired list on Wednesday, according to the league’s daily transaction wire.
Campbell, 28, was a Colts second-round pick in 2019. But he had a lot of trouble staying healthy in his first few years before playing all 17 games in 2022. That was his best season, as he caught 63 passes for 623 yards with three touchdowns.
Since then, Campbell has bounced around the NFC East. He played 12 games for the Giants in 2023 before winning Super Bowl LIX with the Eagles, appearing in all three postseason games for the club.
Campbell spent last season on Dallas’ practice squad, appearing in just one game.
In his seven seasons, Campbell caught a total of 123 passes for 1,117 yards with six TDs.
Defensive end A.J. Epenesa’s search for a new team reportedly took him to Chicago recently.
Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune reports that Epenesa worked out for the Bears last week.
Epenesa agreed to terms with the Browns earlier this offseason, but the deal was not finalized after Epenesa failed his physical. He visited the Dolphins last month after that deal fell apart.
Epenesa played in 91 games for the Bills over the last six seasons. He had 135 tackles, 24 sacks, four interceptions, five forced fumbles, and three fumble recoveries over the course of his time in Buffalo.
Montez Sweat, Austin Booker, Dayo Odeyingbo, Daniel Hardy, and Shemar Turner are the returning options at defensive end in Chicago.
The awkward situation at Fox got a little more awkward on Tuesday night, at the annual Sports Emmys awards.
Greg Olsen, the No. 2 NFL analyst at Fox, won the award for Outstanding Personality/Event Analyst. The other nominees included Tom Brady, Fox’s No. 1 NFL analyst.
It was awkward last year, too. After Brady’s first year after supplanting Olsen as the top analyst at Fox, Olsen was nominated for the award. Brady was not. (Brady’s long-time on-field nemesis, Peyton Manning, won the trophy.)
Olsen continues to be stuck behind Brady, while waiting for the top spot to possibly open at another network. And even though Brady will find a way to laugh it off, he’ll likely take it to heart and work even harder in 2026 to make the improvements necessary to get nominated again — and to win.
At a deeper level, the fact that Olsen won the award underscores the oddity of the decisions that often are made when it comes to NFL coverage. It doesn’t matter if Olsen is objectively better than Brady. Brady has the rings, the name, and the fame.
