Dolphins Release Long Snapper Taybor Pepper, Waive Six in Early Roster Trim

Early cuts signal Miami moving to settle special-teams roles.

Overview

  • The Dolphins, who announced the moves Monday, released long snapper Taybor Pepper and waived six others.
  • Cornerbacks Isaiah Johnson and Jason Maitre were waived with failed-physical designations, which flag medical issues for teams that might claim them.
  • The changes narrow the specialist picture, leaving Tucker Addington as the in-house option at long snapper for now.
  • Miami also waived punter Seth Vernon after signing veteran Bradley Pinion in March to a fully guaranteed one-year deal.
  • Pepper had signed a non-guaranteed $1.3 million deal in March and now re-enters free agency with 100 NFL games and postseason experience.
