The Miami Dolphins players voted for the five players who will represent them as captains for the 2016 season. Two team captains each on offense and defense, plus one special teams captains were chosen to represent the team this year. Last year, captains were chosen on a game-by-game basis.
This year’s offensive team captains are quarterback Ryan Tannehill and center Mike Pouncey. The defensive captains are safety Rashad Jones and defensive end Cameron Wake. Safety Michael Thomas was chosen as the special teams captain.
“I get to wear the ‘C’ on my chest,” said an elated Thomas.
