Overview
- Miami reached the agreement shortly after the legal-tampering window opened, moving swiftly after signaling plans to release Tua Tagovailoa.
- Willis pointed to familiarity with new head coach Jeff Hafley and general manager Jon-Eric Sullivan, both recently in Green Bay, as the key factor.
- The 2022 third-round pick has started six NFL games and attempted 155 passes across four seasons with the Titans and Packers.
- Willis said his two years in Green Bay underscored the value of stability after finally spending consecutive seasons in the same system.
- Analysts caution the signing carries risk due to Willis’ accuracy and decision-making concerns and question whether Miami’s roster will support his development despite the arrival of offensive coordinator Bobby Slowik.
