Dolphins release veteran S Bobby McCain


The Miami Dolphins announced the release of veteran safety Bobby McCain on Thursday.

Parting ways with the 27-year-old captain clears $5.66 million in cap space, per the reports.

McCain played in all 16 games (15 starts) for the Dolphins in 2020 and posted 46 tackles, five passes defensed and one interception.

A fifth-round draft pick in 2015, McCain registered 254 tackles, seven interceptions and four sacks in 87 games (55 starts) with Miami.

The Dolphins drafted Oregon safety Jevon Holland in the second round (36th overall) last week.

Miami also reportedly added veteran cornerback Jason McCourty on Thursday. The 12-year-veteran spent the past three seasons with the New England Patriots.
