Miami Dolphins add to cornerback depth with Justin Coleman, source says

The Miami Dolphins are adding former Detroit Lions cornerback Justin Coleman on a one-year deal worth up to $2.75 million, a source confirmed to ESPN on Wednesday.

Coleman, 27, started 16 games -- mostly in the slot -- in his two seasons with the Lions before he was released, breaking up 14 passes with one interception. He also had three forced fumbles and a fumble recovery, all in 2019.

He is expected to compete with Noah Igbinoghene and Nik Needham for a backup spot with the Dolphins.
