The Miami Dolphins re-signed wide receiver Preston Williams on Tuesday, according to a report from NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero. The contract is a one-year deal, with the Miami Herald’s Barry Jackson reporting “Williams can earn up to $1.99 million” on the contract.
The Dolphins could have tendered Williams this year as a restricted free agent, with tenders starting at $2.4 million on a one-year deal. Instead, they chose to work a one-year deal with the receiver that pays him less than the tender but still allows him to test free agency again next year.
