The Dolphins are continuing to reshape their roster by releasing more veteran players.
According to Tom Pelissero of NFL Media, Miami is releasing guard James Daniels and receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine.
Daniels, 28, played just three snaps in 2025 after signing a three-year deal with the Dolphins in free agency. He suffered a pectoral injury in the season opener and spent the rest of the season on injured reserve.
Releasing Daniels will save the Dolphins $6.5 million against the cap in 2027.
Westbrook-Ikhine signed a two-year deal with Miami last offseason. He appeared in 15 games with three starts, catching 11 passes for 89 yards. His release will save Miami $1.5 million against the cap in 2026.

We're going to see a lot more of these releases in the coming weeks.
With Chubb and Hill also set to be released, it appears that Dolphins are whittling away at the old and nonproductive to rebuild from the ground up.
