Dolphins To Bring Back C Travis Swanson

Travis Swanson enjoyed a one-day stint as a Dolphin last week. He’ll try to exceed that south Florida stay length a week later.

The Dolphins are re-signing the former Lions starting center on Monday, Ian Rapoport of NFL.com reports (on Twitter).

Swanson joined the Dolphins on Sept. 3 but was released on Sept. 4 to make room for running back Brandon Bolden, so it’s hard to say this particular deal will lead to a relevant run in Miami. The Dolphins have Ted Larsen stationed as a swing backup behind center starter Daniel Kilgore.

Swanson, however, did serve as a three-season starter in Detroit. The former third-round pick ended his Lions run starting 42 games from 2014-17. He could not make the Jets’ 53-man roster this year but will have another chance to make an impression with the Dolphins.
