Dolphins’ Studs and Duds: Preseason Week 1

THE STUDS:

1. Jakeen Grant – The little big man didn’t just show that he belonged in the NFL, he proved he is exactly the kind of versatile weapon Adam Gase and the Dolphins have been looking for. He was consistently open on offense, catching 4 passes for 68 yards. He also returned two kickoffs for 53 yards, and four punts for 60 yards, including a 28 yarder that he nearly broke for a touchdown.

Why It Matters: Aside from the fact that Gase wants as many versatile players as possible on the roster, Grant gives Miami the kind of game-breaking speed that will allow them sit Pro Bowler Jarvis Landry on kickoff and punt returns.
