Bradley Chubb Released by Miami Dolphins: Cap Implications and Future Opportunities
The Miami Dolphins are making decisions regarding their roster, and one of them involves releasing edge rusher Bradley Chubb. Chubb, who joined the Dolphins in a trade during the 2022 season, will be let go by the team. This move will result in a significant dead money hit of nearly $24 million on the cap, but it will also create over $7.3 million in cap savings for the Dolphins. Despite missing the entire 2024 season due to a torn ACL, Chubb returned in 2025 to contribute 8.5 sacks for the team. After his release, Chubb will be available to sign with any team in need of veteran pass-rushing help for the upcoming 2026 season.
