Before the season, the Dolphins named six team captains. Three of those six are now on injured reserve, which left an opening that defensive end Josh Uche will fill.

Dolphins head coach Jeff Hafley announced today that Uche was chosen after consulting with the other team captains, who felt Uche was deserving of wearing the C on his jersey.

“They came to me and they wanted to name another captain, so I listened, and we named Josh Uche a captain today,” Hafley said. “A guy who has really done a tremendous job on and off the field. He is another guy who has been an outstanding leader for our young guys. He’s a guy who last year toward the end of the season was not even active, and now he’s a guy that people have to game plan around. He’s playing the run well, getting his pressures and his sacks, and he’s been an unbelievable teammate and great help to me.”

Dolphins quarterback Malik Willis, running back De’Von Achane and defensive lineman Zach Sieler are all captains who are now on injured reserve. In addition to Uche, the captains still on the active roster are left tackle Patrick Paul, center Aaron Brewer and linebacker Jordyn Brooks.

Lots of people will tell you what they think about you and what you shouldn't and should do. Not everyone's thoughts are worth consideration. Don't take criticism from anyone who you wouldn't also go to for advice.

Wouldn’t mind if we keep Uche around, he’s been solid!
