Dolphins Add Iowa QB Mark Gronowski as Undrafted Free Agent

The former South Dakota State standout turned Iowa starter now joins a crowded Miami quarterback group featuring Malik Willis, Quinn Ewers, and Cam Miller.

Overview

After the 2026 NFL Draft, Mark Gronowski agreed to terms with the Miami Dolphins as an undrafted free agent.
He will compete for a roster spot or a place on the practice squad in a reworked quarterback room with Malik Willis, Quinn Ewers, and Cam Miller.
He started all 13 games for Iowa in 2025 and completed 63.4% of his passes with 10 touchdowns, seven interceptions, and 16 rushing scores.
Coaches and scouts cite toughness, leadership, and quick timing on short and intermediate throws, with rushing value that can fit red-zone or Wildcat packages.
Evaluations also flag a Combine snub and concerns about deep-ball velocity and accuracy, which align with why a decorated two-school career led to the undrafted route.
