DAVIE (CBSMiami/AP) — Sometimes it takes a change of scenery (and scheme) for a player to break out of a funk or reach their full potential.
Quinton Coples is eager to show his former team what he can do when he’s back in a three-point stance.
The former first-round draft pick will play defensive end for the Miami Dolphins and hopes to make an impact Sunday against the New York Jets, who released him Monday after he struggled as a linebacker.
Coples provides a welcome reinforcement for the Dolphins, who lost Pro Bowl end Cameron Wake to a season-ending torn Achilles tendon.
