Miami Dolphins 2025 Training Camp Day 3: Ewers Shines!

Day three of training camp. Tomorrow it’s open to you. We got a little news and notes from today and more insight on where certain players are playing. [Music] What is up Finn fans? How is everyone doing on this Friday? Tomorrow the practice is open to you guys. So, for the first time all off season, you guys get to see what the Dolphins are doing. Padded practice will be on Tuesday. We’ll get into that because Mike McDaniel talks about it. Got a little news and notes and all that good stuff. Uh, real quick though, want to talk about something. I do have all this all. So, what you’re hearing now, obviously, if you’re watching YouTube, because that comes out first, is also going to be on the podcast. Dougl wrong a show about the Miami Dolphins linked in the description on Spotify or I think on any where you can find podcasts. I’m also going to be doing podcast special episodes. So if you want to if you’re driving in the car if you’re like hey I want to listen to your stuff and you know YouTube I can’t listen to it and walk or whatever you can uh link in the description go check it out and if you search it it’s Dougly Durong a show about the Miami Dolphins. I think there’s two other Douglongs out there. I tried two different times to get the podcast up and going. I have somebody uh obviously Hog Media is helping me with this one. So, if you want to follow it, link in the description uh if you want to listen. Also, breaking news from the Miami Dolphins. They are giving out orange jerseys to fans, which is awesome. So, one deserving fan will be selected as the orange jersey fan of the day at all Dolphins training camp practices open to the Publix public, not Publix, which is a fantastic place to get subs. Fans can be submitted uh fans can submit nominations at the orange tent on Activation Road each day between 7:30 and 9:30. The winner will be announced near the end of the day’s practice and must be in attendance. The winner will receive an authentic orange jersey signed by the day the by that day’s orange play uh jersey player and an exclusive experience at the Dolphins preseason game at Jacksonville on se Saturday, August 23rd. So again, if you want to be the orange jersey of the day, uh you got to be nominated between 7:30 and 9:30 at the Orange Jersey tent. Hopefully I get nominated when I’m down there for the 20th or the 21st. So, we’re going to jump into this. Going to start with Mike McDaniels presser. Uh, talking about Byron Meadows, he says, “That’s a tough moment for any team. We were pumped to hear. He has movement all extremities and is doing better and better, which is what we’re focused on.” McDaniel said, “Aaron Brewer has a lower extremity soft tissue ailment. Uh, he should be on the field sooner rather than later.” Uh, slight soft tissue uh, sideline Aaron Brewer, but he’s able to snap to Tua, McDaniel said. So, not overly concerned. He’ll be back. I’ll give it probably like a week and he’ll be back. Nothing to worry about there. Um, McDaniel on Tua and Tyreek, he said, “What you’re seeing is a direct communication that is real and not fake. This is a proactive thing that’s positive. I’m proud of the work and transparency. That’s how men can be better can better themselves. I’m trying I wish the only thing is like I’m fine with what’s going on and I’m fine with Tua holding Tyreek a little bit more accountable and trying to be that leader of the team but also like I wish he would have been not so transparent with the media and kind of kept it in house a little bit but again I’m fine with him being like it’s not going to be an easy comeback. Um, you have to fight the urge to predict the future and watch. Dolph uh talking about the young cornerbacks on signing uh quarterback Cornell Armstrong. Mike McDaniel said, “I have experience going against him. Really like where uh where this guy’s mindset is at and where his talent is at. Uh he has a chip on his shoulder and the man hasn’t played football in two years, so I have no expectation.” Um it’s a way for players to re-emphasize the importance of doing things the right way. McDaniel said talking about the practice sprints hinted that there’s something uh to do with the pre-nap penalties. Leaders of the locker room are putting in charge with uh being the police after practice. So again what I said yesterday with thinking it had to do with the penalties is correct and it was a players thing. The players kind of said you we messed up and we have to do these win sprints which is good again. Maybe this is the culture change. When the people buy in, you know you’re going in the right direction. Talking about the light. It’s It’s spazzing out there. Let’s bring down the brightness. Bring up the brightness. Bring up the brightness. Um, the idea where Cam uh needs to be is really progressing in the dark. He is uh every day chopping at wood and chasing technique. fundamentally being one with his teammates. For a talent, for a talented young player, it’s boring but necessary. Talking about Cam Smith got a lot to learn. Love his approach. Uh but you can tell the veterans believe in him. You have to earn that a real way. Veteran trust. Talking about Jonah. Uh he’s tougher. Uh he’s tougher than he is big. You could tell by the way he attacks the field. Talking about Taj Washington. Uh Dolphins coach McDaniel said Willie Gay has provided a spark plug for us for energy standpoint. He also mentioned uh Nick Westbrook a kind and he also mentioned I think Tua and one other person I think I have another quote here to tell you all four that was mentioned a reaction McDaniel uh Mike McDaniel has had watching Mika Fitzpatrick on the practice field. Yes, that’s what I was hoping for. He said, um, “When you’re fixated on the on the desired results, you end up not being the best version of yourself in the moment. When you think about not getting opportunities, uh, you might not be the best way you can get the opportunity.” Talking about his team’s focus. More on Mika Fitzpatrick. He says, “I see a guy that doesn’t underestimate the importance of earning his relationship with the team, understanding that you need to get uh get to know people before you can affect them.” I see him leaning into relationship building with the team. But again, no presser. I know some of you guys in the comment section are like, “Who gives a crap?” blah blah blah. Uh contractually, they’re supposed to talk to the media. So, that is where I’m coming from. they they they’re supposed to talk to the media. So, he’s not. We’ll see why. Uh he probably doesn’t feel like answering certain questions, probably about Brian Flores, probably about coming back to the Dolphins, about all this stuff, but he needs to because contractually he’s obligated. And if you don’t know what I mean by that, just ask Marshon Lynch. Uh I see him really building into a relationship uh building in the team. He somewhat sees himself as a leader of the team that wants to go about it in the right direction. Again, talking about Mika’s relationship, uh, coached is okay, here you go. So, talking about the energy, he talked about Tua, Jordan Brooks, and then he mentioned Willie Gay and Nick Westbrook a kind. So, those were the four guys. Um, before we get to on the field stuff, free agent tight end Noah Fant met with Saints uh and Bengals per Schultz. Uh, no news on if he’s going to meet with the Miami Dolphins. So, we’ll see about that. Also, here is I think this is the one. Yeah, your orange jersey is Ker Co, who we saw yesterday with that pass breakup. Um, so here is kind of on the field stuff. Agent Drew Rosen Drew Rosenhouse, who represents Sax Seal, was spotted at the early part of Friday’s practice. Maybe they’re getting something in the works. Um, an 11on 111 session started with a 15yd pass from Tua to wide receiver Jaylen Wadd on a slant. It was a crisp route and a sharp throw. Uh, defensive tackles Axel and linebacker Jordan Brooks got good penetration on the Devon Han run on the second play of 111s. Both defenders have been strong throughout uh the three days. Edge rusher Bradley Chub and Jaylen Phillips were seen running 20 yard sprints on on their own when the second team players took uh over during the 11on1 sessions. Both appear to be in great shape as they return from season ending knee injury. Um I will say this as well, you will see and I think Omar talked about this on the collective. Also, shout out to everyone who went over and subscribed to the collective. We broke 6,000 subs yesterday. You guys are amazing. Um, a lot of times when the players aren’t essentially doing anything, like if the second team or third team’s up there, they do stuff on the sideline. I think he talked about uh I think it was Phillips when he was rehabbing was catching tennis balls and stuff and they’ll they’ll because you got to stay warm because if you just kind of sit there and relax and then get up and go again, that’s where you can get those deep tissue, groin, and hamstring injuries. Starters didn’t have many uh repetitions Friday as they did the previous two days when they got heavy work. Philillip said the decreased workload was one of the reasons him and Chub ran sprints again trying to stay loose. Linebacker Willie Gay Jr. had an impressive pass breakup early on 11 on 11s. Gay has been uh a playmaker throughout the off season and training camp. The inside linebacker led by starting Brooks and Terrell Dodson. reserves is gay and KJ Britt are the deepest unit on the team and I agree. Quinn Us I’m hearing had a very good day which makes me very happy. Had a nice sideline throw to wide receiver Andrew Armstrong. Uers later had a nice throw to wide receiver Theo Whis Jr. later stepped up in the pocket to avoid pressure completed a pass to tight end Tanner Connor. Throughout otaas and mini camp uh and training campers has seemed to learn quickly and not make the same mistake twice. Love, love, love. One more time. Love hearing that. To add a strong throw to receiver Nick Westbrook, a kind who had been a low-key uh player so far. Westbrook, a big-bodied receiver, might be more valued for situational role on third downs, red zone, and goal line. I’m interested to see how they do in goal line, especially with uh Westbrook. Offensive tackle Ryan Hayes had a nice block against edge rusher Grayson Murphy on a play that resulted in incompletion from two of Tyreek Hill. Hayes hasn’t yet stood out in camp. Gordon lost the fumble on a running play. It appeared to be recovered by edge rusher Derek McClendon, but it uh but it might also have been uh received by uh defensive tackle Zeke Biggers. Got to got to hold that ball. Linebacker Channing Diddle had a a a tackle for no gain on a running back Alexander Madison. Tindle has been low-key so far. I’m hearing, you know, the past couple days, he’s actually been good and making plays, which is nice. Left tackle Patrick Paul showed impressive speed as a lead blocker for Han on the left side. Um Paul has got wheels for being 6’7″, 326. Guard James Daniels, who’s receiving uh recovering from Achilles injury, didn’t appear to do any 11 drills today. Daniels has done uh has done 11 sparingly through three days. Safety Jordan Colbert did a nice uh fight off block uh and turning a running play by Ali Gordon inside. Uh the reserve safety battle is wide open at the early stages of camp. Five flags were thrown for false starts and one was on uh the punt team. The Dolphins had four referees at Friday’s practice after having two referees on the past two. Edge rusher Mo Kamaro um had a tackle for a loss, but overall he’s been suspiciously quiet. Fellow reserve edge rusher Quinn and Bell has been more visible. Now this is from um Chris Perkins. to stock up is Quinn had several uh noteworthy plays uh Friday that hinted he’s making progress as camp continues. Stock down is Ryan Hayes. I absolutely love hearing Quinn Eers having a good day. That’s something that uh makes me happy and makes me very excited for um preseason. Like very very excited. Real quick before we get to the player pressers, uh I want to show you this. The Miami Dolphins are going to be revealing their um rivalry uniform on the 28th, so on Monday. And are they going to be doing the helmet, the black jerseys? Cuz if you see the color here, instead of having uh white, it’s black. Going to be very, very interesting there. some player press conferences now. Um, we start with Jaylen Phillips. He said he’s feeling good after tearing his ACL early last season, saying the rehabbing was a lot easier than the Achilles injury he suffered in 2023. Um, he knows he he wouldn’t um I don’t even know what I’m trying to read there. Today was a little less reps, so we sprinted on the sideline. Uh, so again, they’re just keeping warmed up. I feel like Chop is going to be one of the best players in the league. He’s a future defensive player of the year candidate. Um Jaylen Phillips back and his boy Chop Robinson. For me, it’s about staying healthy, putting myself in a position to maximize the opportunity. It just really sucks because again, I’ll say this for the 400th time. It’s not his fault his two injuries that ended his seasons. The Achilles injury was because of Metife and then the ACL injury was because of Jordan Puyer. It’s just it’s just horrible luck for Jordan uh Jaylen Phillips. Jaylen Phillips doesn’t think uh about this being his contract year on the fifthear option as he looks to prove he could stay healthy come off backtoback season ending injuries. This is where he’s going to fight. He’s going to fight hard and I’m excited to see it. Uh Kenneth Grant talks about Steelers influence. He says he’s got a lot of rooks in the room and he’s obviously taken us under his wing. You got to give this man an extension. He’s got to stay a Dolphin. I don’t care if, you know, they blow it up next year or whatever. He you build around him. Him and Kenneth Grant should be your your two starting defensive linemen when it comes to the future of this team. Uh talking to Jonah now. Uh he was wearing this shirt which is interesting. It says Miami different around the collar. So very interesting. Dolphin right guard Jonah said he made sure to build chemistry with left tackle Patrick Paul working next to him. So I think that kind of if you’re you you put on your Sherlock’s home Sherlock Holmes hat I think you can kind of induce or whatever the word is. He’s playing left guard which means you got uh James Daniels playing right guard which makes sense because it’s to his blind side. Jonas says on a on a contract delay for most NFL second rounders, mindset was always control what I can control. I’m glad it’s behind me. Uh Jonas said he wants to play at 320, not at 330. Uh and if you could see from this picture here, he sweating his butt off and he does look slender, more slender than he did before. It’s a slow progress. Uh Coach Lim said he’d rather uh see me respond to adversity. Jonas said, “When you watch TV, you think it’s easy to go from a right to left, but it’s a huge difference for me pushing from my right leg.” Uh, which again, there was an offensive uh player, offensive line player that said going from your right from the right side to the left side is like wiping your butt with your right hand than your left hand. It is different. I hold myself to a higher standard every time I step on uh into this building. I’m playing for something bigger than myself. Jonah says he jams with Tua. He apparently plays I think the piano and the guitar. Our standard is running the ball. That’s the bottom line is what Jonah said, which made me very happy. Jonah said him and Tua have been a lot of jam sessions. Like I just said, Tua plays the guitar and the bass. Um Kenneth Grant said he and fellow rookie Jonah have a competition to be first and last in the building, which I absolutely love. Um, and yeah, that’s what I got for you today. Like I said, uh, the Dolphins will hold their first practice, uh, pad of practice on Tuesday according to the team. So, Monday will be open to you guys. Tuesday is um, pad of practice and then Wednesday, and then I think they have Thursday off. Then they are traveling to, let me pull it up. They’re traveling to um, Chicago. tell you right now. So, yeah, the 30th and then they have Thursday off. Then they’re on Friday, Saturday, Sunday the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd. Then uh they have three days off open on the 6th and then they are going to Chicago because they have a joint practice with the Bears then they have the game on the 10th then they are going from Chicago to Detroit. They have two joint practices with Detroit. They have the game with them and then they come back home. Uh and then they have 19th, 20th and 21st are training camps. I will be there for the 20th and the 21st. But overall, you know, no interceptions, no real touchdowns. They didn’t have any red zone today, so we’ll see about that. Um, see if they can get some maybe tomorrow with you guys there. Uh, they’ll probably do some red zone stuff. Maybe they’ll throw some razledazzle out there for you guys being there. Let me know. It’s going to be fun to see who wins the orange jersey for the fans. Uh, interested to see how that goes. But I will see you tomorrow breaking it down with more in depth. Uh I’ll probably be doing it later since I’m going to the movies at 1 one o’clock. I’ll be leaving. So you’ll probably get your training camp video before then. Um so yeah, comment below. Let me know what you guys think of camp. And I will see you tomorrow. But usual, stay classy. FN’s up.
