Dolphins May Release Calais Campbell if Playoff Hopes End

The veteran defensive tackle could join a playoff contender if Miami is eliminated from postseason contention.

Calais Campbell confirmed discussions with the Dolphins about a potential release if the team is eliminated from playoff contention.
Miami's playoff chances are slim, with a 4.5% likelihood of advancing and multiple external results needed to qualify.
The Dolphins reportedly vetoed a trade sending Campbell to Baltimore before the November deadline, signaling his value to the team.
Campbell, a six-time Pro Bowler, has remained productive at 38, with 43 tackles, four sacks, and a forced fumble this season.
The 17-year veteran has not ruled out retirement but expressed openness to returning to Miami or playing elsewhere in 2025.
