The Miami Dolphins opted not to use the franchise tag on safety Jevon Holland, who will pursue free agency. The team, facing a salary cap crunch, could not afford the franchise tag of $18.6 million this season. Although they showed interest in retaining Holland, it is expected he will become one of the NFL's highest-paid safeties elsewhere. Additionally, discussions about linebacker Bradley Chubb's future remain ongoing, as the Dolphins need to restructure his expensive contract to alleviate cap pressure.
