The Dolphins receiver and return specialist was not among Dolphins cuts on Tuesday because he and the team agreed on a restructured contract to keep him in Miami, a league source told the South Florida Sun Sentinel.

The final two years of Grant’s deal were removed and his salary for 2021 was lowered from $4.1 million to $3 million. The new contract makes him an unrestricted free agent next offseason.

Grant has five return touchdowns in his five seasons in Miami — three punt returns and two on kickoffs. He has accumulated 2,160 kick return yards and 919 punt return yards in that time.
