The wait is over for the Miami Dolphins to bring in an outside free agent for offensive line depth and competition.
They agreed to terms with former New York Jets lineman Dan Feeney on Thursday morning, according to a league source.
Feeney can make a push to play at left guard or replace Michael Deiter, who remains a free agent, as backup center behind Connor Williams. Liam Eichenberg, the Dolphins’ 2021 second-round pick, was the starting left guard last season, and Robert Jones filled in serviceably when Eichenberg was injured with a knee ailment. Practice-squad guard Lester Cotton also started the playoff loss at the Buffalo Bills when Miami dealt with multiple injuries on the line.
Feeney, who has 64 career starts, has mostly been a reserve for the Jets the past two years but has started in spot duty. He also contributes on special teams. Before going to New York in 2021, Feeney was a third-round selection of the Los Angeles Chargers in the 2017 draft who started 57 games with the team over his first four NFL seasons.
