The Miami Dolphins are staying active early in the league’s tampering window.

After agreeing to deals with Teddy Bridgewater, Chase Edmonds, Cedrick Wilson Jr., and Keion Crossen on Monday, the Dolphins attacked a position of need on Tuesday.

According to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero, Miami has agreed to a two-year deal worth $14 million ($7.5M guaranteed) with former Dallas Cowboys guard Connor Williams, however, the deal can’t be finalized until Wednesday at 4 p.m. ET, the start of the 2022 league year.

Williams, 24, has spent the last four years with the Dallas Cowboys, starting 51 games during his career. Last season, he was the 11th-ranked guard in the NFL by Pro Football Focus with a 75.2 grade. However, there have been concerns about penalties in recent years, as he had 15 called on him in 2021.

At this point, he’s obviously an upgrade over their other options, but Williams will have to clean up his play if he wants to be considered a strong player at his position.
