"Willis is signing with the Dolphins on a three-year contract for $67.5 million with $45 million guaranteed, according to multiple reports. Willis is reunited with new Dolphins general manager Jon-Eric Sullivan and coach Jeff Hafley, who were both with him in Green Bay the last two seasons as he backed up Jordan Love."
"Willis, despite a small sample size of success in the NFL, was the prized quarterback of the 2026 free agency class because he stood out in spot duties for the Packers in 2024 and 2025 after a short tenure with the Tennessee Titans his first two professional seasons."
"With Green Bay the past two seasons, Willis completed 70 of 89 passes for 972 yards, six touchdowns and no interceptions while rushing for 261 yards and three more scores on the ground. His dual-threat abilities are expected to ignite the Dolphins offense with an element that has not been seen in Miami."
The Miami Dolphins made a significant quarterback change on the first day of NFL free agency, releasing Tua Tagovailoa and signing Malik Willis to a three-year deal worth $67.5 million with $45 million guaranteed. Willis reunites with Dolphins general manager Jon-Eric Sullivan and coach Jeff Hafley, who both worked with him during his time as a backup with the Green Bay Packers. Willis emerged as a top free agent prospect due to his strong performance in limited action for Green Bay, completing 70 of 89 passes for 972 yards and six touchdowns while adding 261 rushing yards and three scores. His dual-threat abilities offer a new offensive dimension for Miami. However, Willis has limited NFL experience with only six career starts, three of which came with Tennessee in 2022.
