Dolphins Set Kadyn Proctor at Left Guard as Coaches Laud His Rare Size

The move anchors a size-first rebuild on the left side and keeps future tackle flexibility through cross-training.

Overview

  • Miami officially listed Kadyn Proctor as a guard/tackle and said he will start his rookie season at left guard.
  • Offensive coordinator Bobby Slowik called Proctor “absolutely massive” and said he moves like a much lighter player.
  • Offensive line coach Zach Yenser praised Proctor’s feet and bend and said he can play tackle but fits the team at guard now.
  • Coaches plan left-side cross-training, with Patrick Paul projected at left tackle and Proctor available as an emergency option there.
  • Scouts have flagged uneven pass protection, so Miami expects technique work as he adjusts to quicker, tighter spaces inside.
