Dolphins release third-year CB that they got from the Patriots
The Dolphins have been very active this weekend, as they trim their roster to 53 players. The newest move is the release of a 26-year-old cornerback.
The Miami Dolphins have released cornerback Miles Battle, a third-year player they acquired from the New England Patriots, according to the Miami Herald's Barry Jackson. Battle, who played at Ole Miss and Utah before going undrafted in 2024, signed with the Chiefs before joining the Patriots. He made appearances during the past two seasons with New England, recording four tackles, two passes defensed, and an interception in three preseason games.
Despite his efforts, Battle was unable to secure a spot on the Dolphins' 53-man roster, as the team already had a limited cornerback pool due to injuries to Storm Duck and Darrell Baker Jr. This move comes as the Dolphins methodically address roster cuts to meet the 53-player deadline by Sunday at 6:00 p.m. ET.
