The NFL announced an "unprecedented" salary cap increase for the 2024 season late last week. While most salary cap experts expected the cap to sit around $240, it was announced to be $255.4 million for next season. The Dolphins began the day $50 million over the cap. They later announced that Emmanuel Ogbah would be cut, saving the team roughly $10 million in cap space — dropping that number to about $30 million.

News also broke late last week that the Dolphins are planning to move on from Xavien Howard as a post-June 1 roster cut, saving the team roughly $18.5 million against the cap. Howard, a 2016 second-round draft pick, was a two-time All-Pro in South Florida and led the league in interceptions — twice! We travel down memory lane to explore Howard's time with the Dolphins.
