The Miami Dolphins re-signed offensive lineman Isaiah Wynn (quadriceps) to an undisclosed one-year deal on Monday, according to his agents Drew Rosenhaus and Shawn O'Dare. Wynn will return to South Beach for his second season with the team. He started seven games for the Dolphins last year before landing on Injured Reserve with a quadriceps injury. The 28-year-old former 23rd overall pick of the New England Patriots in 2018 out of Georgia was great in pass protection for quarterback Tua Tagovailoa before his season-ending injury, but he proved to be a liability as a blocker for the running game. Wynn has started 47 of the 50 games he's played in his career through five NFL seasons, but he's going to need to improve his run-blocking if he wants to continue in a starting job on Miami's offensive line in 2024.
Miami Dolphins offensive guard Isaiah Wynn (quadriceps) will likely miss multiple weeks after getting injured in the Sunday night loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Because he's likely to miss multiple weeks, the Dolphins could elect to put Wynn on Injured Reserve, which would require him to miss at least four games. The 27-year-old will be replaced on the offensive line by either Liam Eichenberg or Robert Jones at left guard, starting in Week 8 against the division-rival New England Patriots. The Dolphins were also without left tackle Terron Armstead and center Connor Williams, so their offensive line is really hurting now. Wynn started all seven games to begin the year and hadn't allowed a single sack.
Isaiah Wynn Questionable To Return With Quad Injury
Miami Dolphins offensive lineman Isaiah Wynn (quad) left Sunday night's game against the Philadelphia Eagles with a quad issue he suffered in the second quarter. The Dolphins can't afford to lose any more bodies on the offensive line as they already have two starters out. This will be an injury to monitor for fantasy managers who have stock in the Dolphins offense since the Eagles defensive line does a good job at getting pressure up the middle.
Former New England Patriots first-round offensive tackle Isaiah Wynn signed an undisclosed one-year deal with the Miami Dolphins on Sunday, according to sources. Wynn will add key depth and competition to Miami's offensive line. The 27-year-old missed the end of the 2022 season due to a foot injury, but he's now in Miami and will compete for playing time as he stays in the AFC East division. He'll most likely be competing with Austin Jackson for playing time at right tackle. In his four years with the Patriots, Wynn played in 43 games and made 40 starts.
The New England Patriots have talked to other teams about offensive tackle Isaiah Wynn, the team's first-round pick from 2018. Wynn is on a $10.4 million fifth-year option and he's still seen as a tackle/guard tweener. The Patriots are really tight to the salary cap, and SI.com's Albert Breer's sense is they'd like to use a surplus at one position to alleviate their cap situation and perhaps pick up a draft pick or two. There's also been trade speculation on wide receiver Nelson Agholor, but his big number ($9 million base salary) makes him harder to trade. He's also had a strong training camp this summer and has emerged as a leader in the locker room, so it seems unlikely he'll be dealt. If a receiver is traded, the better bet now is Kendrick Bourne, who will make $3.75 million in 2022.
The New England Patriots have been experimenting with offensive tackle Isaiah Wynn this offseason by moving him from left to right tackle. He was at right tackle for the entirety of mandatory minicamp, which is a pretty big surprise considering he hasn't taken snaps at the position since his rookie season, and he didn't play there in college either. Trent Brown has taken over on quarterback Mac Jones' blind side. All signs are pointing to this move becoming official in training camp at the end of July. The 26-year-old was the 23rd overall selection in the first round of the 2018 NFL draft by the Patriots out of Georgia. He played just 18 games in his first two years in the league before playing 16 games (15 starts) in 2021.
New England Patriots left tackle Isaiah Wynn, who didn't take part in the team's voluntary organized team activities, is at the team's facilities on Monday and will be present for mandatory minicamp this week. Wynn will be playing the 2022 season on his fifth-year option that will pay him $10.4 million. The former first-round pick started a career-high 15 games last year but struggled in pass protection, allowing 28 QB pressures and six sacks. He's expected to open the season as quarterback Mac Jones' blind-side protector, but Wynn will need to be better in his third NFL season.
New England Patriots starting left tackle Isaiah Wynn was not at voluntary organized team activities this week, which allowed Trent Brown to slide over to quarterback Mac Jones' blind side. Justin Herron was elevated as the top right tackle. Brown could be an option to return to left tackle permanently after he was excellent at the position in 2018. He's developing valuable chemistry with first-round left guard Cole Strange, so it's something that head coach Bill Belichick and his coaching staff will have to consider. Wynn will play this year on his $10.4 million fifth-year option. He started a career-high 15 games in 2021, but he also allowed 28 QB pressures and six sacks.
New England Patriots left tackle Isaiah Wynn (ankle, hip) has been downgraded from questionable to out for Saturday's wild-card game against the division-rival Buffalo Bills. Wynn missed practice all week after playing only nine snaps in the Week 18 regular season finale against the Miami Dolphins. The 2018 first-round pick started 15 games and played 82% of the offensive snaps as rookie quarterback Mac Jones' blind-side protector. Last week, the Patriots put 2020 sixth-rounder Justin Herron at left tackle to replace the injured Wynn. Herron started only four games this year and played 35% of the snaps, but he took a step forward in 2021. New England could also move eight-year veteran Trent Brown from right to left tackle and insert 2020 sixth-rounder Mike Onwenu at right tackle.
New England Patriots offensive tackle Isaiah Wynn (hip, ankle) is listed as questionable for Saturday's Wild Card game against the Buffalo Bills. He started the week with limited practice, but has missed both Wednesday and Thursday's sessions. Wynn appears to be a legitimate game-time decision for Saturday's game. Justin Herron took over for Wynn during the regular season finale. The second-year player figures to get the start if Wynn is unable to play. Herron saw significant action in the first half of the season, but was barely seen in the second half. It'll be interesting to see if he can take on a full workload if Wynn is unable to play.
