Miami Dolphins RB Daniel Thomas (hamstring), DE Olivier Vernon (back), TE Gator Hoskins (hamstring) and TE Michael Egnew (concussion) will miss multiple practices.

Footballguys view: Thomas is on the roster bubble this year. He's been there before, but it seems like he's running out of chances with the team. We'll see if he can get healthy and impress during the preseason.

  Dolphins | Snaps limited for Michael Egnew    Mon Sep 16, 08:14 PM

Miami Dolphins TE Michael Egnew saw his snaps on offense reduced to just nine in Week 2 against the Indianapolis Colts, as the emergence of FB Charles Clay as a receiver has hurt Egnew's playing time. In addition, TE Dion Sims saw 35 snaps, more than double his time from Week 1.

  Dolphins | Dustin Keller out for season    Sun Aug 18, 11:22 AM

Miami Dolphins TE Dustin Keller (knee) will miss the entire 2013 season after suffering a serious knee injury during the team's preseason game Saturday, Aug. 17.

Footballguys view: Take him off of your boards, folks. Brandon Gibson might have bench value in PPR leagues as the exclusive #3 target in this offense now. Don't look for any tight end to be fantasy relevant in the Dolphins offense this year.

  Dolphins | Two TEs likely vying for one spot    Tue Aug 6, 08:27 PM

Miami Dolphins TEs Michael Egnew and Kyle Miller are each likely battling for one roster spot. The team likes Miller for his ability to find seams in the middle of the field, but he is considered an underdog against an improving Egnew.

Footballguys view: Egnew is a converted WR who has the athletic ability to get open down the field. He has a large wingspan and does a good job of catching passes at the highest point. Egnew needs to continue showing improvement as a blocker.

  Dolphins | Tight end rotation    Sun Jul 21, 03:20 PM

Miami Dolphins TEs Charles Clay and Dion Sims are working behind starter TE Dustin Keller. TE Michael Egnew opened camp working with the third- and fourth-team offenses.

Footballguys view: Egnew looked like a wasted pick for much of camp and the preseason last year, and it doesn't sound like he has done much to reverse that trend this offseason.

  Dolphins | Competition for backup TE job    Wed Jul 10, 12:01 AM

Miami Dolphins TEs Dion Sims and Michael Egnew are set to battle for the backup tight end job during training camp and the preseason.

Footballguys view: Egnew is a nice athlete but we like Sims in this competition. Sims quickly turns upfield after the catch and does a good job squaring his large frame to the line of scrimmage. He's not a quick twitch athlete but has a strong build and is not afraid to run routes over the middle.

  Dolphins | Michael Egnew works with starters    Tue May 21, 11:47 PM

Miami Dolphins TE Michael Egnew began team drills in organized team activities (OTAs) Tuesday, May 21, ahead of TE Dustin Keller. Head coach Joe Philbin said Egnew earned the reps after a strong offseason.

Footballguys view: Keller was a big name free agent signing but he won't be handed the starting job. We imagine he should win the job in camp but will face competition from Egnew. Keller has upside but has yet to put it all together and play up to his potential as a pro.

  Dolphins | Will have plenty of cap space    Wed Dec 12, 03:05 PM

The Miami Dolphins are expected to have as much as $50 million in salary cap space this offseason. They will be forced with whether to re-sign impending free-agent CB Sean Smith, WR Brian Hartline and possibly DL Randy Starks and OT Jake Long. Miami could target an impact player on the free-agent market, but they will not overspend. Green Bay Packers WR Greg Jennings, Kansas City Chiefs WR Dwayne Bowe and Pittsburgh Steelers WR Mike Wallace are all set to be free agents. The Dolphins could look to add a tight end, too, with TE Michael Egnew not ready to contribute. Their potential targets their include New York Giants TE Martellus Bennett, Tennessee Titans TE Jared Cook, Washington Redskins TE Fred Davis or New York Jets TE Dustin Keller.

  Giants | Michael Egnew a potential draft target     Mon Apr 9, 01:27 PM

The New York Giants could look to select Missouri TE Michael Egnew in the mid-to-late rounds of the NFL Draft.

Footballguys view: The TE class this year is very weak, but the Giants have a need at the position with both Jake Ballard and Travis Beckum sustaining knee injuries in the Super Bowl. They signed Martellus Bennett in free agency but could look to the draft for more depth. Egnew is seen as a third- or fourth-round pick. He has a good size/athleticism combination, has strong hands, and could develop into a quality move TE.

  NFL | Michael Egnew participates in Pro Day    Fri Mar 2, 02:06 PM

University of Missouri TE Michael Egnew weighed in at 251 pounds at his Pro Day March 1. He measured a 37 1/2-inch vertical jump and an 11-foot-3 broad jump.

Footballguys view: Egnew plays more like a super sized WR than he does a traditional in line TE. He's capable of running deep seam routes and creates mismatches because of his athleticism. Most see him as a third- or fourth-round pick.
