Xavien Howard Fantasy

Miami Dolphins defensive back Xavien Howard has agreed to a new extension with the organization. The three-time Pro Bowl corner agreed to a restructured contract last season. The assumption was that a new deal would be discussed in the offseason. That was the truth as Howard agreed to a five-year deal with $50 million in new money. He receives the most guaranteed money for a defensive back in history. This deal is well deserved for one of the best defensive backs in the league right now.

The Miami Dolphins reportedly are reworking defensive back Xavien Howard's contract to remain with the team in 2022. Dolphins general manager Chris Grier said, "he made a promise to revisit the deal after adjusting it last summer." The 28-year-old racked up 50 tackles, a sack, five interceptions, two forced fumbles, and two defensive touchdowns over 16 games in 2021. He requested a trade last offseason but agreed to stay with the Dolphins on a reworked contract. Howard and Miami will meet to renegotiate a new contract in 2022. Stay tuned for further updates.

Miami Dolphins cornerbacks Xavien Howard (shoulder, groin) and Byron Jones (Achilles) will miss Sunday's game against the Jaguars. Losers of four games in a row, the Dolphins will now have to attempt to defeat the 0-5 Jaguars without both of their starting corners- not an ideal task. 2020 first-round pick Noah Igbinoghene will have to shoulder quite a bit of responsibility on Sunday. Jaguars signal-caller Trevor Lawrence could see a slight boost in fantasy value, as well as pass-catchers Marvin Jones Jr. and Laviska Shenault Jr.
