Dolphins release rookie WR during roster cuts down to 53 players
The Miami Dolphins continue to hack away at their roster, releasing a rookie wide receiver, as they work to get it done to 53 players.
The Miami Dolphins have initiated roster cuts to reduce their wide receiver roster from 91 players to 53. As part of these cuts, the team reportedly waived rookie wide receiver Donaven McCulley, according to Miami Herald's Barry Jackson. The 23-year-old played at Indiana from 2021-24 and Michigan in 2025, but missed out on two national championships for both schools.
McCulley caught 105 passes for 1,422 yards and 11 touchdowns during his college career, leading both institutions. However, he was near the bottom of the depth chart at Miami, as no quarterbacks targeted him with passes during the team's three preseason games.
