Xavien Howard Fantasy

The Miami Dolphins signed cornerback Xavien Howard to a record five-year, $76.5 million contract extension on Thursday, according to sources. It makes him the highest paid corner in NFL history and also includes $46 million guaranteed. Howard has been to one Pro Bowl after being taken in the second round by Miami in 2016. He had 35 tackles, one fumble recovery, seven interceptions and 12 passes defensed in 12 games last year for the Dolphins. He's one of the best cornerbacks in the league and is the heart and soul of Miami's secondary.

Despite not having a new contract, Miami Dolphins cornerback Xavien Howard showed up to the start of the team's voluntary offseason program on Monday. Howard wants to become the league's highest-paid cornerback. He's currently still on his rookie deal and is set to make $1.3 million in 2019. The Dolphins have expressed interest in keeping him around long term, but only time will tell if something gets done. The 25-year-old had 35 total tackles, one fumble recovery, a career-high seven interceptions and 12 passes defensed in 12 games in 2018.

Miami Dolphins cornerback Xavien Howard (knee), who is out for Week 14 against the Patriots, recently had arthroscopic surgery to trim his meniscus injury, according to sources. It's a minor procedure, so he hasn't been ruled out yet for Week 15 against the Vikings. His absence against the Patriots is notable, though, and it's good news for New England receiver Josh Gordon.
