Miami Dolphins face tough financial decisions as salary cap pressures mount—could Bradley Chubb be on the way out? Cap space, contract extensions, and strategic cuts are in focus as Kyle Crabbs explores the realistic financial outlook for the 2026 NFL season, detailing how Miami can maximize their roster flexibility.
Key topics include potential post-June 1st moves, contract scenarios involving Minkah Fitzpatrick, Austin Jackson, and Devon Achane, and the impact of possible departures on team dynamics. The discussion highlights the importance of cash budgeting, rookie wage scale considerations, and the challenge of balancing leadership with performance. With up to $20 million in immediate cap space and nine-figure room projected for 2027, Miami is poised for a critical reset. Will the Dolphins’ aggressive cuts pave the way for a promising future, or leave fans missing key playmakers in the seasons ahead?
