Miami Dolphins hit pause button on new deals, extensions for free agents and others; PLUS insight on Ryan Tannehill status

HOUSTON -- Mike Tannenbaum made the rounds on radio row at the Super Bowl on Friday but before Mike got on the mike, he told the Miami Herald the Miami Dolphins don’t expect new contracts for looming free agents Kenny Stills, Andre Branch or Dion Sims anytime soon because deadlines often drive these talks and free agency’s March 9 start is still weeks away.

Tannenbaum, steering the Dolphins’ offseason efforts as the executive vice president of football operations, also said the idea of extending contracts for Reshad Jones and Jarvis Landry -- both of whom have contracts for 2017 -- will likely be handled in something of a chronological order with free agency being the first priority this offseason.
