The Miami Dolphins are signing cornerback Kendall Fuller to a two-year deal value $16.5 million, a person acquainted with the terms told the Affiliated Press.
The man or woman spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity due to the fact the deal hasn’t been finalized.
Fuller expended the past 4 seasons with the Washington Commanders, his 2nd stint with the group that drafted him in the 3rd round in 2016. He played for the Kansas City Chiefs from 2018-2019 just after currently being dealt in the trade that sent former Chiefs quarterback Alex Smith to Washington.
Fuller was a very first-round talent who dropped to the 3rd spherical coming out of Virginia Tech simply because of injuries fears, but he has been among the the very best slot cornerbacks in the league during his eight-yr career — with 16 interceptions and 486 tackles.
Fuller began 19 of 26 games with the Chiefs above two seasons and gained a Tremendous Bowl with them throughout the 2019 season.
He figures to be Miami’s selection to get started at cornerback reverse Jalen Ramsey following the Dolphins launched veteran cornerback Xavien Howard, who was the longest-tenured participant on their roster.
