2019 NFL Free Agency: Dolphins release WR Danny Amendola; how quickly can he come back to New England?

The Miami Dolphins released wide receiver Danny Amendola after one season with the team. Amendola had signed a 2-year, $12 million deal with Miami and led the team with 575 receiving yards. He is now a free agent that won’t count against the compensatory draft pick calculation.

Amendola was a receiver for the New England Patriots from 2013-17 where he was a standout on the biggest stages. He underplayed the contract he received in 2013 and was asked to take multiple paycuts, so it’s no surprise that he cashed in with the Dolphins in 2018.
