The Miami Dolphins have released veteran guard James Daniels, according to a report from Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. The move was confirmed on Monday as the team continues to make adjustments to its active roster.
Daniels, an experienced interior offensive lineman, now becomes an unrestricted free agent and is eligible to sign with any team immediately. The decision to part ways with Daniels comes as the Dolphins evaluate their depth on the offensive line. By releasing the veteran, Miami opens up a spot on the depth chart that may be filled by younger talent or a subsequent free-agent acquisition.
Known for his consistency and veteran leadership, James Daniels has been a reliable presence in the league. His sudden availability is expected to generate interest from several teams looking to bolster their offensive line protection before the start of the season. The Dolphins have not yet commented on the specific reasoning behind the release or announced a corresponding roster move.
