The Dolphins have released wide receiver Ricardo Louis and quarterback Jake Rudock, as first reported by ESPN.com’s Field Yates (on Twitter). The early cuts will help the Dolphins shape the roster to meet the league’s recommended 80-man roster max.

Louis joined the Dolphins in the spring of 2019 but did not play due to a knee injury. Prior to that, he spent three years with the Browns and tallied 45 catches for 562 yards. The Miami native was hoping to reassert himself with his hometown club, but he’ll have to seek work elsewhere.
Rudock also joined the Dolphins last year, but spent the year on the practice squad. The 2016 sixth-round choice of the Lions has just three career appearances to his credit. Even before the release, Rudock was facing long odds of making the active roster. Ryan Fitzpatrick, Tua Tagovailoa, and (possibly) Josh Rosen project to serve as the Dolphins’ active QBs to open the season.
Two players that barely anyone has heard of.

I find it very troubling, personally, that the Minor NFL Transactions post has comments turned off.
I doubt this action by staff was directed at you Papi. You did your best to bring some harmless fun to that particular feature and others resented that and got nasty.
I just hope it isn’t a reoccurring thing to have comments closed.
It’s an unfortunate situation because a few bad apples are ruining things for the well behaved majority. I’m sure the staff would prefer not to close comments since the forum here does generate traffic to the website.
You could always give us your daily “name of the day” here. It would certainly brighten my mood
Your posts are cheerful. Would of had a good choice today
Both the Chiefs and Steelers like former Michigan players so Rudock may get a workout with one of those teams.
