The Miami Dolphins have signed free agent linebacker Shaquem Griffin to a one-year contract, according to NFL Media’s Ian Rapoport. The move comes after reports earlier in the day the team was hosting the former Seattle Seahawks linebacker on a visit. The Dolphins add Griffin just before training camp opens early next week.
Griffin played in 46 games over three years with the Seahawks, starting one time, with 25 career tackles, one pass defensed, and one sack. While he never played more than ten percent of the defensive snaps in a season for Seattle, he was a key contributor on special teams for the club, a role which could transfer to Miami.
