Dolphins News: Analyzing the terms of new Dolphins LB Anthony Walker's contract

Before the start of free agency, the Miami Dolphins released Jerome Baker after six seasons, leaving a rather large hole at linebacker, which the Dolphins have since filled with Jordyn Brooks and Anthony Walker Jr. Walker, 28, agreed to a one-year deal worth $1.38 million to join the Dolphins after spending four seasons with the Indianapolis Colts and three with the Cleveland Browns. According to Over the Cap, he will receive a $1.21 million base salary ($750,000) guaranteed. The contract also comes with a $167,500 signing bonus. He’ll count for $1.15 million against the cap in 2024. While this contract doesn’t guarantee a roster spot, the Dolphins would save just $235,000 by releasing Walker while incurring a dead-cap penalty of $917,500. Walker will compete in a room that now includes Brooks, David Long, Duke Riley and Channing Tindall. There’s a chance that Walker could push Riley for his spot, considering the Dolphins would save $2.5 million by moving on from the LSU product.
