Over the past couple of months, the Miami Dolphins have secured key deals with their prominent players, and now attention turns to another important team member, safety Jevon Holland. Holland is entering the last year of his rookie contract, initially agreed upon when he was selected in the second round of the 2021 NFL Draft.
Holland has established himself as a reliable player for the Dolphins, and many see his reaching the Pro Bowl as just a matter of time. He has expressed a desire for a contract extension, understanding previously that he might not have been the priority for team negotiations.
The Dolphins recently extended contracts for wide receiver Jaylen Waddle and quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, and they’ve restructured Tyreek Hill’s contract to include guarantees for the next three years. With these deals settled, it seems Holland is next in line for General Manager Chris Grier’s attention.
When asked about any updates on Holland’s contract situation, head coach Mike McDaniel praised Holland’s ongoing dedication and improvement, highlighting his aptitude and adaptation in training camp. McDaniel conveyed his focus remains on coaching and development, leaving contract negotiations to Grier. He emphasized Holland’s critical role on the team and his eagerness to watch Holland progress, leaving the contractual details to be sorted by the management.
