The Miami Dolphins have added some veteran depth along their defensive line as they have signed veteran defensive end Calais Campbell to a deal, the team announced Tuesday. The specific terms of the contract that is bringing Campbell to South Beach were not immediately disclosed. 

The 37-year-old is set to enter his 17th season in the league and this latest stop with the Dolphins is a homecoming of sorts. Campbell played at the University of Miami before he was a second-round pick of the Arizona Cardinals in 2008. He played nine seasons for the Cardinals and, in that time, was able to establish himself as a top-tier pass rusher, being named to the NFL’s All-Decade Team in the 2010s. He then signed on with the Jaguars for three seasons in 2017 and had a three-year stint with the Ravens before playing for the Falcons last season. 

Campbell started all 17 games for Atlanta in 2023 and tallied 6.5 sacks, 56 tackles and 17 quarterback hits.
