The Miami Dolphins are looking ahead to the upcoming NFL season with high expectations, hoping to make a strong playoff push. After a disappointing season marked by injuries and inconsistent performances, quarterback Tua Tagovailoa recently received some positive news with the addition of a new player from the Seattle Seahawks.
As the offseason continues and teams prepare for the NFL draft in April, the Dolphins are focused on strengthening their roster. In pursuit of top-tier talent, Miami’s front office wasted no time in securing a new linebacker, this time from a former Super Bowl champion team: the Kansas City Chiefs.
Willie Gay Jr. is joining the Dolphins for the upcoming season, bringing valuable depth to the defense. Alongside him, the Dolphins also recently added tight end Pharaoh Brown, whose 2024 season with the Seahawks didn’t live up to expectations in terms of statistics.
When Brown spoke to the media about his decision to join Miami, he offered an unexpected take that quickly gained traction on social media. “Sometimes beggars can’t be choosers (laughs),” Brown said.

Tagovailoa’s new teammate
In a surprising revelation about why he chose to join the Miami Dolphins this season, wide receiver Brown has already sparked plenty of discussion on social media. Dolphins fans have voiced mixed reactions, with many expressing doubts over Brown’s ability to contribute to the team, citing his lackluster stats.

If he suits up for the Dolphins next season, it will mark his eighth year in the NFL. Brown has previously played for several teams, including the Raiders during their time in Oakland (1 year), the Cleveland Browns (2 years), the Houston Texans (2 years), the New England Patriots (1 year), and the Seattle Seahawks (1 year).
Over his seven seasons in the league, Brown has played in 87 regular-season games, recording 100 targets, 72 receptions, 3 touchdowns, and 31 first downs. However, his performance with the Seahawks last year left much to be desired: 15 games played (7 as a starter), 12 targets, 8 receptions, 65 rushing yards, and just two first downs.
Dolphins’ new additions for next season
Along with retaining key players like offensive lineman Liam Eichenberg, the Dolphins have made several notable additions from other high-profile NFL teams. Here are the most significant signings for the upcoming season:
- Willie Guy Jr. (From Kansas City Chiefs)
- Zach Wilson (New York Jets)
- Ryan Stonehouse (Tennessee Titans)
- James Daniels (Pittsburgh Steelers)
