Bobby McCain Fantasy

The Washington Commanders are releasing starting slot cornerback/safety Bobby McCain on Monday, according to a source. With the Commanders having young talent in the secondary, McCain became the odd-man out. Washington will save $4.42 million against the 2023 salary cap by releasing McCain. The 29-year-old former fifth-round pick in 2015 by the Miami Dolphins had a career-high 76 tackles (54 solo), three tackles for loss, five passes defensed and one forced fumble in 17 games (16 starts) in his second year with the Commanders in 2022. The eight-year NFL veteran should draw plenty of interest on the open market this offseason, and he'll have a jump start on the market before the new league year begins on March 15.

Former Miami Dolphins safety Bobby McCain is signing an undisclosed one-year deal with the Washington Football Team on Friday, according to his agent, Drew Rosenhaus. McCain was a starter and team captain over six seasons with the Dolphins before he was released this offseason, but he should immediately play a key role in Washington's secondary in 2021. His arrival could put Troy Apke's roster spot in jeopardy this summer, and McCain will give Kamren Curl some competition for the free safety spot. The 27-year-old was a fifth-round pick by Miami in 2015, and he spent the first six seasons of his NFL career with the Dolphins. McCain totaled 46 tackles (39 solo), one interception and five passes defensed in 16 games (15 starts) last year. He has seven career interceptions and 30 passes defensed.

Former Miami Dolphins safety Bobby McCain, who was released on Thursday, is scheduled to visit with the Washington Football Team on Monday, according to a source. The 27-year-old was taken in the fifth round in 2015 out of Memphis and grew into a dependable member of Miami's secondary. But the Dolphins are gearing up to be contenders and saw McCain's release as a way to save some salary cap space. If he's designated as a pre-June 1 cut, Miami will save $5.6 million. If he's designated as a post-June 1 cut, Miami will save $6.4 million. In 16 games for the Dolphins last year, McCain recorded 46 tackles (39 solo), one interception and five passes defensed.
