DAVIE, Fla. -- The Miami Dolphins didn't expect to make a trade deadline splash, but they did make a notable move Tuesday, signing defensive lineman Ziggy Hood to fill their run defense holes.
Hood, a 2009 first-round pick, spent the last two and a half seasons with the Washington Redskins before being released earlier this month. His agent, Andy Ross, announced the signing.
The Dolphins are tied with the Cardinals for most rushing yards allowed this season.
Miami gave up 248 rushing yards against Detroit in Week 7 on 7.
