The Miami Dolphins finalized their initial 53-man roster Sunday by, among other things, waiving 13 players. They joined the 12 players waived Saturday to give Miami a total of (quick math) 25 players subject to waiver claims before 1 p.m. ET on Monday.Any player who clears waivers will be eligible to sign with any team, either for the 53-man roster or the practice squad, and some of those players figure to be back with Miami.Those 25 players are (in alphabetical order):CB Alex AustinT Gottlieb AyedzeCB Miles BattleRB Coleman BennettS Major BurnsT Kevin ClineEDGE Seth Coleman-LylesTE Ethan ConnerLB Stephen DixRB Donovan EdwardsTE Jeremiah FranklinQB Mark GronowskiRB Jarquez HunterDT Alex HuntleyWR Donaven McCulleyEDGE Rodney McGrawCB Jai'Onte' McMillanQB Cam MillerDB Louis MooreDT Fatorma MulbahDT Cam RiceLB Cam RileyLB Jaheim ThomasRB Carlos Washington Jr.WR Theo Wease Jr. But which players are most likely to get claimed?We rank our top five here.THE TOP FIVE DOLPHINS WEEKEND CUTS TO BE CLAIMED OFF WAIVERSRB JARQUEZ HUNTERThis was the player the Dolphins obtained in the trade with the Los Angeles Rams for wide receiver Tutu Atwell. He's a year removed from being a fourth-round pick out of Auburn and does have some running ability. It actually was a bit surprising that the Dolphins decided to expose him to waivers.DT FATORMA MULBAHMulbah, who spent time with the Jets in 2025, has some movement ability in the middle of the defensive line and those kind of players are valuable. And if it hadn't been for the emergence of Keith Cooper Jr., Mulbah very well might have made the Dolphins' initial 53-man roster.CB MILES BATTLEBattle, who has six regular season games of NFL experience, is a long cornerback who showed a knack for making plays this summer. The latest example came in the preseason finale against the Atlanta Falcons when he came up with a fourth-quarter interception.WR DONAVEN McCULLEYYeah, maybe it doesn't say much for McCulley that the Dolphins kept an eye-opening seven wide receivers on their initial 53 and McCulley wasn't one of them, but it doesn't change the fact that McCulley is a big wide receiver who showed good pass-catching ability in camp.S MAJOR BURNSWe had Burns on our final 53-man roster projection, and there clearly is something to work with there with the former LSU DB. He led the UFL in interceptions and got better as training camp went along.Add us as a preferred source on GoogleFollow
