On Saturday, the Miami Dolphins surprised many with the announcement that they had extended the contract of T.J. McDonald. The extended contract is for four years, $24 million, with $10 million guaranteed. The ironic part of the signing is that McDonald has yet to play an official down with the Dolphins, but it is the second contract he has signed with the team this offseason.
Initially, McDonald met with Miami back in late March. It was that day in which McDonald found out that he would be sentenced to an eight-game suspension by the NFL for violating the NFL Policy and Program for Substances of Abuse.
