The Miami Dolphins have three heralded safeties. Who plays? | Miami Herald

If you look at the Dolphins internal depth chart (hidden somewhere in the team's practice facility where reporters aren't welcome) it raises a significant question because it features Reshad Jones as a starting stafety. And T.J. McDonald as a starting safety.

And, obviously, Minkah Fitzpatrick figures prominently because he was the team's first-round draft pick last month and it would be a bad look if the No. 11 player selected in the entire draft was on the bench throughout 2018.

So the Dolphins have three prominent safeties for a sport that typically demands two starting safeties.

Except that Burke envisions a plan that needs three big-time safeties playing a lot.
